Upper Highway Baby Home is a brand that is dedicated to transforming lives with love and care. They provide a safe haven for vulnerable and abandoned babies in the Upper Highway area of Summerveld, KZN. Founded in 2019 by registered foster parents, Kerry and Gary Stanton, this establishment offers both temporary safe care and foster care for these precious infants.

The babies who arrive at Upper Highway Baby Home often have fragile health states and urgent medical needs, requiring ongoing attention for successful adoption. Beyond their physical well-being, the team at Upper Highway Baby Home focuses on nurturing and preparing these babies for a seamless transition into their new forever homes. They teach them important skills, such as interacting gently with pets, traveling safely in car seats, and partaking in outings.

The social development of the babies is also a priority, as interaction with peers and adults helps them grow. Upper Highway Baby Home strives to create a loving family environment where each baby feels cherished and valued. With dedicated care during their formative years, they lay the groundwork for a healthy and fulfilling future.

Sadly, in South Africa, approximately 40,000 infants are abandoned each year, and only a fraction of them are saved. The government-run facilities that aim to rescue and care for these babies are overwhelmed and under-resourced. Upper Highway Baby Home aims to address this critical need by offering love, care, and opportunities to these abandoned infants.

With the support of the community, they hope to break the cycle of neglect and inspire others to join their cause. By making a difference in the lives of these babies, Upper Highway Baby Home believes they can create a ripple effect that transforms not only their futures but also the future of South Africa as a whole.
