About Us
At O’Nesty’s Safe Arms Foundation, we believe every baby deserves a safe beginning—no matter the circumstance. Based in Las Vegas, NV, our community-centered foundation is building programs to provide emergency infant safety support for babies ages 0–9 months when parents or caregivers are facing crisis, uncertainty, or overwhelming circumstances.
Right now, we focus on crisis education, Safe Haven awareness, and resource navigation for Nevada families while we finalize our emergency placement partnerships.
Our Mission
We believe no baby should face uncertainty alone and no parent should face crisis without support. Our mission is to offer safe arms, open hearts, and immediate care when families need it most.
Our Vision
Our vision is a community where every baby is welcomed into safety, every parent feels seen and supported, and every family has a pathway to hope. We imagine a world where compassion meets crisis, where help arrives without judgment, and where every new beginning is filled with love, stability, and possibilities.

FAQ
-
O’Nesty’s Safe Arms Foundation is a Nevada-based nonprofit in its founding phase, focused on protecting infants ages 0–9 months when parents are in crisis, uncertain, or overwhelmed. We are building programs that will:
• Support emergency infant placement in safe, approved homes
• Connect parents to 24/7 crisis hotlines like 988 and Nevada 211
• Provide Safe Haven education and infant safety awareness
• Offer parent resource navigation for housing, mental health, legal, and practical support
-
Yes. All conversations and requests for help are handled with compassion, privacy, and discretion. Parents can share as much or as little information as they choose. If we ever need to connect someone directly to a partner agency, we will explain why and get their permission whenever possible, unless we are required by law to share information for safety reasons.
-
We are actively building partnerships with local hospitals, first responders, social workers, and community organizations so that our future programs meet Nevada safety and legal standards. As a founding-phase nonprofit, our current focus is education, Safe Haven awareness, and connecting families to existing crisis and child welfare resources.
-
A parent in crisis should never have to face decisions about their baby alone.
While we do not receive infants directly or act as a child welfare agency, we help parents understand their legal options (including Nevada’s Safe Haven Law), connect them with 24/7 crisis hotlines like 988 and Nevada 211, and navigate safe, legal surrender or placement through authorized providers such as hospitals, fire stations, or child welfare agencies.
At every step, parents are treated with respect, love, and dignity. There is no judgment, ever.
As our emergency placement support program develops, our role will be to support families and partners in coordinating safe, approved placements—not to replace child welfare, hospitals, or law enforcement.
