Caring Cradle® Is Made in America.
Close Enough to Deliver, American Enough to Depend On
Being made in America is more than geography. Being made in America is about far more than buying a Caring Cradle. Being made in America is the beginning of a relationship between the hospitals we serve and our company.
Once your hospital purchases its first Caring Cradle — either the original Caring Cradle or the Caring Cradle “Mini” — our company stands behind you. And because we are made in America, we stand close. We stand ready. We stand with you.
That is not a slogan. Here is what it looks like in practice.

Support That Never Stops
Our U.S.-based customer service is here 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every day of the year — for you. There is never any need to wait for an international time zone, a business-hour window, or a holiday schedule to align on the other side of the world. The nurse on the night shift can reach a real person just as easily as the nurse working at two in the afternoon.
Emergencies and heartbreaks do not keep business hours.
Built & Shipped in the USA
Our cradles are manufactured and shipped right here in the United States. Caring Cradle isn’t impacted by ever-changing tariffs, border delays, or customs processes to fulfill an order.
Caring Cradle is near enough to know the families you serve, because they are our families too. Many Caring Cradles are purchased as donations, given in memory of infants lost to stillbirth and infant death. Families often reach out to us directly — with questions about how the units work, how donations can be made, and how to facilitate a dedication. These are not transactions. These are families whose babies have died, entrusting us to hold compassion and care for them as we help them place a Caring Cradle.
Built From Listening
Being made in America is also the foundation of how the Caring Cradle keeps getting better. The original design was shaped by the feedback of nurses and healthcare providers who live the clinical reality every day. That same listening led to the Caring Cradle “Mini,” created after hospitals asked us for a smaller option suited to micro preemies. It keeps us close enough to hear what our hospitals need — and to answer.
A Message to Our Nurses
When I designed the Caring Cradle, I knew that nurses needed help when babies were stillborn.
Nurses want to provide compassionate and caring help.
When you give a nurse a Caring Cradle, they are able to provide that compassionate, caring assistance AND give the mother what she wants more than anything in the moment: time with her baby.
We appreciate all nurses. Thanks especially to those providing care and comfort to mothers who experience this heartbreak.
Thank you to everyone who has made it possible to provide this help to nurses in the U.S., Canada, and Columbia.

CEO & Inventor of Caring Cradle
More Than Just a Purchase
Every Caring Cradle purchase supports something larger: American workers, suppliers, and businesses who help design, build, and ship this product to hospitals across the country. When a hospital invests in a Caring Cradle, that investment stays home.
When U.S. hospitals choose to allocate part of their budget to the Caring Cradle, that loyalty is received the same way it is given — with appreciation, and with a commitment that does not end at the sale. Caring Cradle is not a transactionally based company. We are relationally based. We measure our success not by the products we deliver, but by the support we provide long after a Caring Cradle arrives.
The Caring Cradle® exists to give time, dignity, and peace to those moments that matter most, because every family deserves the chance to say goodbye their way.
