Women's Programs
The Stork's Nest
The Stork's Nest is a free program available to all expectant families. This educational
and incentive program is designed to increase the number of women who receive early
and regular prenatal care so their babies have a head start on a healthier life.
Families earn points by keeping prenatal appointments and attending educational
classes. As they accumulate points, they may redeem them at the Women's Center for
gifts. Stork's Nest is open to all pregnant women who wish to participate, regardless
of economic or insurance status. The program is a joint effort of Zeta Phi Beta
Sorority, Inc., the March of Dimes and Bayhealth. In Dover, Stork's Nest redemption
is available at Women's Services, 6th floor and in Milford, at the Women's Wellness
and Resource Center, in the Medical Arts Building, Suite 3.
