The Maternity home has the ability to take in up to five mothers between the ages of 12 to 17 in the months leading up to their birth as well as 10 weeks afterwards. The girls have to be accepted into the program as well as adhere to Mooseheart's rules and guidelines while there. Family teachers and other experts regularly come into the home and show the expectant mothers vital parenting skills like CPR which they practice on dolls.
