Diaper baby!




Natasha Baumgartner, a sixteen-year old Southern Wells sophomore, had a fantastic idea for a 4-H gift wrapping project. After seeing a “diaper baby” online, she decided to create a few of her own and won the Reserve Grand Champion at the 4-H fair.

But this aspiring artisan didn’t stop there. Much to the surprise and gratefulness of Keely Meade-Alstoft, Family Centered Services’ Closet and Mentor Mom Coordinator, Natasha donated two of her “diaper babies” to their cause.

According to FCS staff, the diaper babies have been a huge hit over at Family Centered Services. Keely says, “They make for great prizes and giveaways at Mentor Mom meetings and Closet functions.”

The Closet is a Family Centered Services program that assists families in our community by providing free clothing and necessities for infants and pre-school aged children. The Closet is open Thursdays from 10am to 3pm. For further information, please call (260) 824-8574.
