A residential maternity home with five individual bedrooms for mothers and babies, plus a family unit for a mother with an infant and older children. The home has a kitchen and living area, bathrooms and laundry upstairs, and a lower level with a living room, large playroom, and a second kitchen and eating area.
Women can come to live at Hope House during their third trimester, or any time they have a child 24 months or younger.
In Summerside, within walking distance of parks, the boardwalk, the waterfront, and many shops, restaurants, churches, and community organizations. For the safety of our residents, the exact address is shared confidentially.
Having a baby without stable housing or support puts both mother and child at risk. Vulnerable mothers need adequate supports in place after their baby arrives, and research consistently shows that, whenever it's safe to do so, staying together is the best outcome for both mom and infant. Hope House makes that possible: a stable home, caring guidance, and the time to build skills and confidence that support healthy early-childhood development and a sustainable future for the whole family.
