The Siena House Program
We are dedicated to helping women find positive solutions for themselves and their children, before and after birth. With respect for each woman's unique circumstances, our staff, volunteers, and outside agencies work together to assist in every facet of a pregnant woman's needs. Mothers and their babies may remain at Siena House for up to 6month after delivery with a possible 6 month extension.. During this time, we:
- provide guidance in the areas of prenatal care, baby care, breast-feeding and nutrition
- help our mothers prepare for the future with an emphasis on life and parenting skills
- encourage counseling for family reconciliation whenever possible
- offer transitional care and support to ensure a positive and healthy experience of independent living for the new family
