Baby Hatch

An NGO in Malaysia has introduced baby hatch in order to curb baby dumping.The first baby hatch was opened at OrphanCARE premises in Petaling Jaya.For all we know,these unlucky babies were dumped at the toilets,rubbish sites,bins,rivers and many more places.Thus,this baby hatch can be an alternative to the mother to leave her baby anonymously in a safe place to be found and cared of.This program has the support of Ministry of Women,Family and Community Development.The hatch has a small door which opens to an  to an incubator which a mother can place her baby.Once after the door is closed,an alarm bell will ring and alert the NGO staff to the baby presence right after the mother has left.
