“As a parent, finding someone I feel comfortable with to watch Lauryn has been incredibly challenging. At the same time, I want so much for my daughter to have the opportunities and experiences that I cherished as a child. One of my favourite things as a girl was when I had the chance to go away to a weekend or to summer camp. Because of Lauryn’s condition, I believed these types of experiences would not be possible for her. Then we found The Darling Home for Kids. Now Lauryn can have the same experiences as her non-disabled peers, in a place where experienced and trained staff are able to meet her needs when an emergency occurs.”
