Today we partnered with the Adult Success Program for National Wear Your Pajamas to Work Day. It’s also the first annual National PJs for Safe Sleep Day to raise awareness about the importance of safe sleep! How and where a baby sleeps matters. Baby should always sleep alone, on their back, and in a crib or pack 'n play. If you need a safe place for baby to sleep, please reach out to our office to see if you qualify for a free cribette! Call 750-450-3275 X 237 or email help@zmchd.org.

Tick season is here! Let’s keep our pups (and ourselves) safe!

Ticks aren’t just a nuisance. They can carry diseases that affect both dogs and humans. A few simple steps can make a big difference:

✔️ Talk to your veterinarian about the best tick prevention products for your dog
✔️ Ask about tick-borne diseases common in your area
✔️ Check your dog daily for ticks, especially after outdoor time
✔️ Remove any ticks right away if you find them
✔️ Keep your yard maintained to reduce tick habitats

A little prevention goes a long way in keeping your furry family members happy and healthy.

The air is crisp and spring blooms are starting to sprout! 🌱It’s the perfect time to start gardening by getting seeds started so they’re ready to plant in a flower bed or a container garden when the weather warms up! Did you know you can use recycled egg cartons to get started with planting? 🥚
