Baby Equipment

Every Coquille baby adds to the strength of our Tribe. We welcome our newest members by providing cribs, mattresses, car seats, and baskets of useful gifts.

As soon as you know a little one will be joining your family, please contact staff member Vanessa Brown. She’ll send you literature and she’ll stay in contact throughout the pregnancy.

When your baby arrives, Vanessa will deliver a basket of welcome gifts. (For members outside the five-county service area, the gifts will come in a mailing box instead.)

Vanessa will arrange reimbursement for your baby’s crib, mattress, first-stage and second-stage car seats, and a booster seat. Or, if you live inside the service area, Vanessa may be able to accompany you on your shopping trip – or even do the shopping for you!

This program is for CIT tribal citizens as well as non-tribal parents of enrolled tribal children. All equipment must be purchased new.

Here is the current reimbursement scale:

• Infant car seat $80
• Crib $150
• Mattress $75
• Second stage car seat $70
• Booster seat $30

Mail copies of your receipts to:
