A teeter totter for The Comfort Cottage to make Family Visits a lot of fun

Posted Jul 3, 2018
The Comfort Cottage is a homey place where children in foster care visit with their birth family. The Cottage allows families to have visits in a natural setting rather than at the county office. There is a lovely large yard at the Cottage and now that it's spring, it would be wonderful to have some outside toys so families can have visits in the fresh air. Visits between foster children and their birth families are so important to everyone's well-being and toys like this one facilitate great playtime to help strengthen family connections.

Comfort Cottage is 8 years old and lives in PA

The Comfort Cottage is a place where children in foster care have visits with their birth families in a home-like atmosphere. Before the Cottage was established, visits were taking place in windowless and dreary rooms in an office building. Now families visit in a little house, in brightly painted rooms with very nice toys and lots of sunshine and space. There is even a full bathroom for parents who would like to bathe their infants, a kitchen for parents to make lunch for their children, and a yard with a playhouse. Meeting in the Comfort Cottage allows children and their birth parents to have quality visits.
