Baby Playpen

There is a young child in the community who is experiencing delays in her mobility skills related to a prolonged hospitalization. It is being recommended that she spend a lot of time working on tummy time and crawling, but she requires oxygen and will therefore need to remain in a relatively confined area, so as not to tangle or detach her oxygen tubing. As she becomes more mobile, it is important to her family that she avoid other potential dangers in the home. We are requesting the baby playpen gate listed below (or something similar) to support the family in creating a safe space to play for this sweet toddler.
