vulnerable children and mothers.

Welcome to The Peace Agency, where compassion meets action.

We are dedicated to transforming the lives of South Africa’s most vulnerable by creating safe, nurturing environments for children and empowering birth mums through counselling and support. Our mission is to ensure that at-risk children can grow, learn, and thrive and that struggling mums get given the support they need to provide the best care possible for their babies.

The Peace Agency is a KwaZulu-Natal-based non-profit organization dedicated to supporting orphans and vulnerable children and vulnerable mothers through various initiatives.

Over the past 15 years, we have established several Babyhomes in and around Durban. These are safe, nurturing environments for abandoned and orphaned babies and infants placed for adoption. Several Babyhomes have successfully transitioned into independent NGOs, allowing us to expand our impact even further. Currently, The Peace Agency operates Baby Home Durban North.

Over 10 years ago we opened the Hammarsdale Child Care Centre in the rural community of Woody Glen near Hammarsdal. This centre cares for and educates children in need of daycare and Early Childhood Development and supports the surrounding community.

In 2022, we opened Baby Line, a confidential support and counselling service for at-risk mothers.

Founded in 2010, The Peace Agency is a registered NPO with the Department of Social Development and a Public Benefit Organization (PBO) with SARS. We are also a Level 1 B-BBEE contributor

Our Key Initiatives

Baby Home Durban North

A sanctuary for abandoned and orphaned babies and babies given up for adoption, The Baby Home Durban North provides round-the-clock care, medical attention, and emotional nurturing to ensure these infants receive the best possible start in life. Our dedicated team of caregivers, social workers, and volunteers work tirelessly to create a warm, family-like environment where each child can flourish.

Hammarsdale Child Care Centre

With a vision to uplift struggling families, the Hammarsdale Child Care Centre offers daily care and early childhood education to 20 babies and toddlers from the rural Woody Glen community outside Hammarsdale. Many of these children come from young, single-parent households where mothers may still be in school or seeking employment. In addition to childcare and Early Childhood Development, we distribute essential donations, such as clothing, baby supplies and food parcels to support struggling local families.

Baby Line

082 069 9067

A critical resource for at-risk mothers, Baby Line offers immediate counselling and support through phone, WhatsApp, and social media platforms. This helpline provides guidance on parenting, legal options, crisis intervention, and alternative solutions for mothers who may be unable to care for their children. Instead of merely addressing physical needs, Baby Line connects these women to a nationwide network of NGOs, faith-based groups, and individual supporters who can offer practical support.
