About Welcome Baby
For more than 35 years, Welcome Baby has been a trusted resource for Durham families, offering free parenting education, safety programs, and essential supplies to help every child grow up healthy, safe, and supported.
We believe that when parents have access to knowledge, encouragement, and community connection, families thrive, and so does Durham.
Empowering Families. Strengthening Community. Building Brighter Futures.
Welcome Baby supports parents and caregivers through:
- Free evidence-based parenting classes that teach practical tools and build confidence.
- Child safety programs offering hands-on guidance and essential equipment like car seats and cribs.
- Family resources and community connections that strengthen relationships and reduce stress.
Our work focuses on prevention, education, and empowerment: reducing Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and increasing Positive Childhood Experiences (PACEs) for children across Durham County.
