Why We Choose Caring Cradles
At Daniel’s Drive, we choose to donate Caring Cradles because we believe families facing the unimaginable deserve the very best. Caring Cradles are thoughtfully designed, premium cooling units that give families the precious gift of time to say goodbye.
One of the features we love most is the cradle’s seamless design. It can be easily moved from room to room or unit to unit, allowing hospitals to provide compassionate care wherever it’s needed. The beautiful purple bassinet also serves a gentle purpose as it quietly signals to hospital staff and visitors that a loss has occurred . This helps ensure families are treated with dignity and sensitivity during their time of grief.
Healthcare providers consistently share how easy the Caring Cradle is to use. It can be set up quickly in a patient’s room, allowing families privacy and uninterrupted time with their baby. This means families can focus on what matters most: holding, loving, and creating memories with their child.
We’ve heard from countless families who describe how meaningful that time was — time to make decisions, invite loved ones in to meet their baby, take photos, and make memories they thought they’d lost forever. Even chaplains and funeral directors have shared their appreciation for how well the Caring Cradle preserves the baby’s body with integrity and care.
While we know there are other cooling options available, we intentionally choose to give the best. Because families enduring the hardest moments of their lives deserve nothing less than the highest standard of care — and that begins with giving them more time.
