We’re Here for the First Years, Because They Shape Everything After

Adorable Babies Jump Start was built on one belief:

Every child deserves a strong start, and no caregiver should walk that path alone.

WHO WE ARE

A Village of Heart-Forward Humans, Helping Little Lives Thrive

We are educators, parents, mentors, volunteers, donors, and dreamers, just like you.

What unites us is a calling to support the first five years of life, when children are growing fastest, learning deepest, and forming the foundations of who they’ll become.

Adorable Babies Jump Start Corporation (ABJS) is a nonprofit dedicated to early childhood development through education, emotional support, and milestone guidance. We exist to ensure that every caregiver, regardless of background, income, or language, has the tools to support their child’s growth from day one.

WHY WE EXIST

We Saw a Gap — So We Built a Bridge

Our mission

  • reach 1,000+ caregivers in the next year

  • increase milestone confidence among first-time parents

  • make sure our volunteers say they “gained more than they gave”

Our motivation

Across the communities we serve, too many parents are asking the same painful questions:

 

  • “Is my baby developing normally?”
  • “Who do I turn to for real help?”
  • “What if I’m missing something important?”

Our story

We created ABJS so those questions never go unanswered again.
Through accessible resources, trauma-aware guidance, and community care, we help families:

 

  • Recognize developmental milestones early
  • Navigate parenting with confidence and calm
  • Prevent small challenges from becoming lifelong struggles

OUR CORE BELIEFS

What We Stand For

Every Child Matters

No one is too small to deserve support and no milestone is too small to celebrate.

Early Support Changes Everything

The first 5 years shape the next 50. We help caregivers catch what matters early.

Community Is the Cure

We don’t lecture. We walk with families — side by side, step by step.

A MESSAGE FROM THE HEART

From One Caregiver to Another

ABJS began as a simple question: “What if every parent had a village?”

Today, it’s a growing circle of support that includes parents, professionals, and partners who believe in building futures—one milestone, one child, one family at a time.

A word from our founder:

“I started this because I once sat where you are—wondering, hoping, searching.

Now I get to be part of the answer I once needed. And so can you.”

Debra McLaurin — Founder, ABJS
