OUR HOME

We are located in the historic district in the heart of Auburn, which is just a short walk away from campus. As we continue to fundraise for a permanent home, we are renting a house that enables Baby Steps to offer housing, support, and community to pregnant and parenting student-moms at Auburn University.

 THE NEED

Currently, very few colleges in the United States offer resources for pregnant women pursuing their degrees. This often leaves them feeling that they have nowhere to turn. By offering housing, support, and community to college women in unplanned pregnancies, Baby Steps meets a critical need.

OUR VISION

 Baby Steps is a place where people with unique backgrounds and experiences embrace their journeys. This is done in an environment where they have the ability to feel they are truly known and loved. By helping the courageous women we have the privilege of serving, Baby Steps creates a space where they have the freedom to thrive.


Are you, or someone you know, a college student facing an unplanned pregnancy and in the midst of making one of the hardest decisions of your life?
​
This is a reality for many young women across the country during their college years who fear that a child will ruin their hopes and dreams of getting an education. The pressures of society often make women in this situation feel they must choose between finishing their education and having their baby. While many universities offer medical resources, the support usually dissolves after childbirth, leaving women unsure about what to do once their baby is born. Baby Steps empowers women to have both their education AND their baby by providing housing, support, and community both during pregnancy and after birth. ​

"I encountered many obstacles while pregnant and trying to finish my degree at Auburn University.

As a student-mom, I couldn't think of anything else I could've possibly needed or wanted more than Baby Steps.”
