Tot Shop


This Tot Shop provides new and gently used supplies for pregnant women and families with infants and young children up to age 5. Families can redeem coupons obtained from health care and social service providers for needed items. Items that can be earned include diapers, wipes, cribs, play pens, high chairs, strollers, safety gates, potty chairs, breast pumps, blankets, bottles, diaper bags, clothing and other miscellaneous items.

Some examples of activities to "earn" coupons include prenatal exams, parenting classes, well-baby check ups, health screenings, immunizations and care seat safety programs. North Shore Community Health Care Clinic, Hilltop Health Care Clinic, Healthy Families, Porter County WIC, Porter County Health Department and other programs in Porter County provide coupons.
