When
I first heard of Mom’s House, I was in a difficult situation as I had
only recently learned that I was pregnant with my daughter, Nubia. I was
a rising junior with a promising career in the Accounting field and not
a clue on how to continue with a child. With the proper support from
advisors and Mom’s House, I was able to not only have my daughter Nubia
but, also continue in school. From my first day here at Mom’s House up
until my last day, Mom’s House have helped me dramatically. Amidst of
all the obstacles placed in my way, Mom’s House provided a safe area for
me and my daughter to feel comfortable at while we thrived in our
designated fields.
Every day that I brought my daughter, we were welcomed with open arms.
Other parents that had been here for years welcomed me into the
organization as if I had been here for years. I would never trade the
experiences I gained here as I learned a lot of things from new
mothering techniques to the type of mother I aspire to be for my
daughter. Moreover, I know I will always have support from the wonderful
employees and volunteers of Mom’s House. Now that I am graduating, I
plan to savior these memories and ensure Nubia never forgets this
magical place.
