Welcome to Normal Moments

Welcome to Normal Moments' new website. Please bear with us as we continue to add new content and new features for our great volunteers and families!

DAVIDS AND SUPPORT IN THE HOME

Get a “David” all your own – someone to look after your pets, your plants, and/or your home. When you want to be in the hospital with your child either locally or out of town, one of our Davids can look after everything else. He/she can bring in your mail and review it with you by telephone if you desire, make sure your plants are alive when you get home, tend to your garbage & recycling, and make sure your family pets are given TLC. If you have special requests, we will do our best to accommodate them. All Davids undergo complete, fingerprinted background checks for your safety and ours.

Whether your child is in the hospital or at home, we can send someone to occasionally clean your house. Whether by working with your neighbors or sending an outside source, we’ll do our best to make sure your lawn is trimmed in the summer and that your drive is shoveled in the winter.

*While we do our best to provide consistent services, some opportunities may be limited by number of volunteers and service providers in your area and the financial resources available for allocation.

Spring Clean Up Teams Needed

Here's a great opportunity to get the kids involved.

Form a group within your organization, company, or neighborhood and get matched up with a Normal Moments Family who needs assistance. Whether you are able to simply come, clean up flower beds, remove yard debris, and do general clean or can raise some funds to help make minor exterior repairs and plant new flowers, your assistance will be greatly appreciated!

Please email tricia@normalmoments.org with the number of yards your team wants to undertake and in what area. We'll get you matched up and you can schedule directly with the family you assist.

This is a wonderful way to directly support your local community while enjoying a day outside with friends, co-workers, family, etc.

Mission

Normal Moments, Inc. is devoted to supporting parents with critically ill children in the home, in the hospital, and via web resources so that they can spend as much time as possible sharing the most normal moments possible with their children.

We will achieve this goal by alleviating the home stresses while parents sit with their hospital-bound child, by providing them with experienced resources to whom they can vent or who can be used as sounding boards either in person or by telephone, by reducing some daily cares such as housecleaning, lawn maintenance, and meals from local restaurants, by providing a consolidated location where they can research medications and treatment protocols via links to reputable websites, among other services, and by providing access to other service providers who can assist them with those needs not met by Normal Moments, Inc. All services will be provided on a charitable basis without consideration to race, religion, financial need, or any requirement beyond the medical needs of the child.
