At The Durban North Baby Home, we believe every baby deserves love, security, and the promise of a brighter future. We are a registered Place of Safety, providing 24/7 care for abandoned, orphaned, and adoptable babies and toddlers, offering them a nurturing, loving environment until they can be placed with a forever family or find a long-term care solution.
Our home is more than just a safe space — it’s a place of hope, healing, and joy. Every giggle, every cuddle, and every milestone is celebrated as we give each little one the care they deserve.
At the heart of The Durban North Baby Home is a dedicated team of carers who bring love, patience, and kindness into the lives of each baby and toddler. Every day, they nurture, comfort, and support our little ones as if they were their own — offering not just care, but genuine warmth and compassion.
Our team understands that every cuddle, smile, and moment of attention makes a difference in a child’s world. With years of experience, gentle hearts, and tireless energy, they work hand-in-hand with Jo and Bjorn to ensure each child feels safe, valued, and loved.
Together, they are more than a team — they are a family.
