Beds and Baby Equipment
We provide beds, cribs, car seats, and more. If we don't have it, we will do our best to find it.
What it is
We know that as a caregiver, sometimes your “yes” to a placement depends on being able to get the right equipment quickly. Maybe you could be the kinship placement if you had a bunk bed, a car seat or a crib? Maybe you could take a sibling set if you had another bed? We want to be your resource for these needs. If we don’t have it, we will try our best to help you find it.
Why it matters
No child should sleep on a floor on their first night in a new home. When children arrive at a
foster or kinship placement with nowhere to sleep, a bed — or a crib and the right baby gear —
meets one of the most basic needs first, so a hard transition starts with rest and safety.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Who can request Beds and Baby Equipment?

Can I donate my old mattress?
No, used mattresses can carry pests, allergens, and prior trauma associations we'd rather not pass along. If you'd like to donate a brand-new mattress, please contact our office at info@lotcarolinas.com
