Need safe, reliable care while attending court?

Child Care at Court

We offer free, drop-in child care at courthouses in San Bernardino, Orange, Santa Clara, and Riverside Counties for parents handling legal matters.

How We Support Families

Open whenever the Courts are open, our spaces provide a child friendly retreat exclusively for families attending court so families can focus on court matters knowing their children are safe and supported. Guided by our philosophy, we create an environment where every child feels safe, valued, and empowered while their caregivers navigate essential legal responsibilities.

  • Quality care and security in a safe and welcoming environment
