Hope House

Website

Hope House www.babyhopehouse.org.za - Hope House, a haven for little ones, co-founded by Sonia Swinton and Lynne Pieterse in 2007, is situated in Pinetown, KwaZulu-Natal.

We are a non-profit Christian home, caring for 6 abandoned babies from newborns to toddlers. We started as part of the Pinetown Presbyterian Church’s New Hope Ministry, with the intention of giving mothers who cannot care for their babies other options rather than to abort or abandon them. Babies, who have been given up for adoption, are placed in our care, waiting to be united with their forever families.

💕 Celebrating an Incredible Foster Mother - Nanny 💕
Today we celebrate a very special woman whose heart and home have been a safe haven for more than 100 babies. 🍼👣❤️

For years, she has opened her doors and her heart to little lives in need, loving, nurturing and caring for each baby until the day they could go home to their forever family.

These babies have been held in her arms, comforted by her love, and given the best possible start while waiting for their forever home. Each little life has left a footprint on her heart — and she has left an unforgettable footprint on theirs. 💕

Retirement is so well deserved, but the impact of what she has done will live on in the lives of every child she has cared for and every family she has helped create.

Thank you for saying “yes” to the babies.
Thank you for opening your home.
Thank you for giving so much love.
Thank you for being their safe place.

You may be retiring from being a foster mother, but your legacy of love, hope and changed lives will never retire. 🌸
With grateful hearts, we celebrate you and the incredible difference you have made.
So Sonia, go and enjoy your retirement. It's time to put your feet up and relax.

We hope everyone had a lovely weekend! Please see our needs list ❤️ Thank you for always supporting us!
