Ollie has a grip like a tiny champion, wrapping his hand around fingers, blanket corners, or stray locks of hair and holding on as if he will never let go. Beginning his journey, Ollie has faced more change than most babies should. Entering foster care just days after birth, he learns with each cuddle that his cries will be answered and his needs met. He studies faces with wide, serious eyes, and his body wiggles with joy at silly noises. A strong and curious baby, Ollie loves to reach, grab, and kick. As he rolls, babbles, and explores with his hands, he needs a steady, loving home where he can be held often and receive the attention he truly deserves.

With a baby in the house, a bed experiences a lot of spit-up, spills, and late-night changes. A light gray queen-size bedspread would provide Ollie’s caregiver with a fresh, easy-to-wash layer that keeps her bed cozy and inviting. It would help her feel refreshed and prepared for each new day while making their shared space feel calm and welcoming.
