Good luck, and may you help keep many babies safe!

We have debated a very long time about this exact issue. This service, which is widely available through not-for-profits and government agencies, is available thanks to the generosity of donations and grants. As a for-profit business, we can’t offer a service like this, which is time-intensive and requires special certification, for free. So we had a choice: offer the service for a fee or don’t do it at all.

Our customers have asked us again and again to offer this service, because budget cuts have led to long wait times and reduced hours in many communities. Ultimately, we felt that we can offer an experience that is at the same high level as all our other services, and we can promise little or no wait time before getting an appointment. All our techs are also supervised by one of the most experienced CPS technicians in the state, to ensure the quality of our work and so that any complicated situations can be addressed quickly. We are not looking to gouge anyone. We are simply trying to be responsive to the needs of the parents in our communities, and to do so in a commercially responsible way. There are other businesses around the country that are asking $50 or more for the same service.

Our technicians volunteer their time to help out the agencies that offer these services for free, and as company a we do our best to help and support those agencies in any way we can. It’s so important that services like this continue to be available free of charge. We are not looking to compete with them, but rather to be a convenient alternative. Also, if we can attract the families who are willing and able to pay for a service like this, we will help free up resources at the non-profit agencies to focus on families who can not pay.
