The Baby & Maternity Closet offers infant, toddler, children and maternity clothing and supplies to those in need in the community. Baby Closet Coordinators volunteer four hours of their time weekly or twice per month to sort the hundreds of donations to PHD and to assist visitors to the Closet.

Visitors who come to PHD for Baby Closet Services are assisted by Baby Closet Coordinators, who offer the appropriate sized clothing for the visitor's child. Baby Closet Coordinators are there to offer suggestions of clothing and supplies that the mom will need for her baby or children.

As a service to our pregnant clients, Baby Closet Coordinators also assemble layettes of new infant's clothing, providing the new mother with the basic necessities for clothing and caring for her baby.

A one session training introduces Baby Closet Coordinators to the agency by giving an overview of PHD's Services and tips for working with clients and sorting donations.

As of July 9, 2010 PHD Baby & Maternity Closet will be located at PHD's Counseling Center - 1610 Colonial Parkway, Inverness, IL. For more information on volunteering at the Baby Closet e-mail Volunteer Coordinator, Yvonne Gardner.
