When I found out I was pregnant, I was 34 years old. I was just splitting from my husband who was in and out of court. I had moved in with my mom and my fourteen-year-old son.
I was not in the best place.
When I found out I was pregnant, I felt like I had been hit with a ton of bricks. I was overwhelmed and a little angry. I came to Care Net because my doctor had recommended them when I told him I wanted to have an abortion.

Things have changed since that first day I came to Care Net. My husband and I are currently in the process of working things out under the same roof. I am having the baby now…where before I thought I was 100% sure that this was not something to even consider.
I am also not so afraid of sitting down with a complete stranger and asking for help.
Because of your support, Jennifer also participated in free parenting and life skills classes. Jennifer delivered her baby a few months ago. Your prayers for this mother and her infant are valuable.

There is something incredibly special about newborn photo sessions—the tiny details, the soft snuggles, the quiet moments. But recently all of that was doubled when we captured these moments for a set of twin girls you helped this past year.
There’s nothing more heartwarming than the bond between a mother and her baby. These photos capture the quiet joy, tender snuggles, and playful giggles that fill their days. From sweet cuddles to shared smiles, every moment is a reminder of just how powerful and beautiful that connection is.
The saying goes—it takes a village to raise a child. To the women we serve, you’re their village. But saving that child’s life takes an entire team, as Sarita shares with you below in her own words.
These sweet girls recently celebrated their FIRST birthday, and we can’t help but think about how sweet it has been to watch them grow this last year because of YOU and the support you provide our clinic.
