Why Early Support Matters
The first five years are a critical window of brain development. Parents often need answers, reassurance, or guidance but in rural areas, services can be limited or far away.
Baby Bear Hugs fills that gap by:
Bringing support directly to the home
Offering relationship-based, personalized guidance
Providing developmental screenings at no-cost to families
Teaching easy, play-based activities for early learning
Helping families navigate resources and community services
When families feel supported, children flourish.
Families who are expecting until their child is 5 years old.
