iKhaya LikaBaba

Organization Description: 

iKhaya likaBaba is a non-profit organization based in uMhlatuze, KwaZulu Natal, South Africa. The name iKhaya likaBaba is a zulu phrase which means "house of the Father". Its inception and creation took place in the hearts of a group of caring individuals. With the onslaught of Aids/HIV on families and the hopelessness of poverty - we saw a need to create an alternative. A place where abandoned babies and AIDS orphans could find a place of shelter, but mostly love. Where these precious children could know love and be cared for in the way that they deserve.



We provide excellent care that is individually culturally appropriate and situated within the community of Empangeni for abandoned babies. With a trained and skilled staff of caregivers, nurses, occupational therapist, doctors, physical therapists , we provide the best level of medical and physical care targeted and developing each child to its full age appropriate potential and laying the correct foundations for childhood development.
