Rock-a-Bye Alert!!

St. Ann Center

for Intergenerational Care

I knew I was going to like this project when we went to the first script meeting at the St. Ann Center for Intergenerational Care on the south side of Milwaukee.  What a great concept – combine an adult day care facility specializing in Alzheimer’s and dementia care with day care for children as young as 6 weeks old.

 But the highlight of our visit was when they described the “Rock-a-Bye Alert.” When several infants get fussy at the same time and there are not enough arms to hold them in the nursery, a “Rock-a-Bye Alert” goes out and the adults in day care come to the rescue.  Talk about a “win-win.”

 Here’s the piece we produced. There’s a “Rock-a-Bye Alert” about 4½ minutes into the clip.
