Our Goal
Hudson Cradle strives to provide an environment in which infants feel valued and loved, are ensured a healthy start, and are provided with the means to develop emotionally, socially, and cognitively. Hudson Cradle is committed to operating a comprehensive program capable of nurturing, healing, protecting, and teaching the infants in our care.

How We Do It
All children residing at Hudson Cradle receive child care, nursing, nutritional services, early intervention, developmental evaluation and intervention, infant massage, care coordination, and transportation. Families receive supervised visitation, health education, foster parent education, parenting skills, counseling, transportation, and case management. In addition, Hudson Cradle provides volunteer training and services, and community education. Services are provided by infant caregivers, pediatric nurses, social worker, and support staff. Hudson Cradle is staffed by Jersey City Medical Center, but is separately funded and has its own autonomous Board of Trustees. Volunteers are an important part of Hudson Cradle's success and contribute more than 250 service hours each month.
