Crisis Nursery Program

Asking for help is a sign of strength.

Families in crisis often need more than just a "place" to drop off the kids for an overnight stay. The Crisis Nursery Program at New Horizons Crisis Center has caring staff and volunteers who help families work through problems and focus on solutions. Families don't always have a support system to help during difficult times. Crisis Nursery is a community base, voluntary, non-judgmental, and confidential service that responds to parents under stress. Whether you just need someone to talk to or need a break, Crisis Nursery is just a phone call away.

The Crisis Nursery Program at New Horizons Crisis Center serves families in Lincoln, Lyon, Murray, and Redwood counties. Our services are free of charge. Crisis Nursery

serves children 6 weeks through 12 years.

Services provided to families include:

24 hour crisis line
Overnight crisis nursery child care
Daycare
Crisis counseling and support
Information and referrals
Parent education

Although a crisis can be different for each family, some examples include:

Sudden illness or accident
Housing and/or financial problems
Childcare difficulties leading to employment problems
Personal problems
Family violence
Lack of adequate resources

A crisis may be any situation that places stress on a parent. Parenting is a difficult job, and asking for help is a sign of strength. Not every family has the resources to obtain that help. Crisis Nursery can be a resource for that family.

Our services are free of charge and confidential.
If you need an advocate, PLEASE call.
Our number is answered 24 hours a day by trained staff and volunteer advocates.
