Our Cribs for Kids program provides pack n plays, not traditional cribs. As a national Cribs for Kids® partner, our goal is to make safe sleep accessible for every family, and pack n plays are a trusted, evidence‑based safe sleep space for infants.
Pack n plays allow us to support more families because they are affordable, easy to set up, and simple to use in a variety of home environments. Their compact size makes them especially helpful for families with limited space, and they meet all safety standards for infant sleep when used as directed.
No matter the style of sleep space, the purpose is the same: giving every baby a safe, separate place to sleep. Our pack n plays help us do that for more families across Iowa.
If you or someone you know needs a safe sleep space for their baby, please fill out the form below. Please carefully read the requirements of this program before submitting the form.
Requirements
- Infant must be between 0-12 months of age.
- Infant must primarily reside with the adult requesting the pack n play.
- Must live in the state of Iowa.
- There are no income requirements.
Pack n plays are not kept in-house and must be ordered. Pack n plays will be shipped directly to address provided below. Process can take up to 3 weeks. Once a pack n play is distributed, it becomes the responsibility of the parent or caregiver. We cannot replace pack n plays that are lost, stolen, or damaged after distribution.
*Please note that we have a limited supply of Pack n Plays. These are provided to families first come, first serve.
We are committed to ensuring families have access to safe sleep environments for their babies. This program will always be free. If you feel called to give to support this goal you can do so here.
