Services and Support
Shifra Puah ensures that new mothers are taken care of. We provide a full range of services, including meals, financial stipends, cleaning help, baby nurses, and stays in kimpeturin convalescent homes.
Meal deliveries
For a kimpeturin, cooking dinners for the family can feel like an impossible task. Shifra Puah uses an online platform to quickly streamline the process of enlisting volunteers to cook and deliver meals. Everyone can see who has signed up to cook and when food will arrive. Kashrus standards are adhered to, and special diet requests are accommodated.
Financial stipends
With extra blessings come extra expenses. Shifra Puah provides financial assistance to families struggling to stabilize their economic equilibrium after welcoming a newborn baby. With the help of Shifra Puah’s stipends, parents can enjoy their little bundle of joy without worrying about how they’ll make ends meet.

Baby nurses
A good night’s sleep is essential for new mothers and their families! A baby nurse can help everyone rest and get back to themselves faster and in the comfort of their own homes. Shifra Puah assists with funding to make this possible when finances would otherwise stand in the way.

What can we do to help?
“They say it takes a village to raise a child, and that fact was made clear when I had my baby. It wasn’t just a meal train. Shifra Puah reassured me that I wasn’t alone.”

Karen Schild
Almost 30 years ago, two weeks after giving birth to my premature twins, I arrived home from the hospital and found a box of prepared food waiting for me on my doorstep. Knowing that someone had cooked and delivered a warm meal for me gave me an indescribable feeling of support and relief.
Since then, it has been my mission to ensure that every mother in our Monsey Anash community feels just as loved, nurtured, and supported during their time after giving birth.
