Name: Nelly
Age: 6
Nelly is a bright and resilient 6-year-old with a gentle spirit and a warm smile that lights up a room. She has a diagnosis of cerebral palsy and developmental delays, but she continues to make wonderful progress each day with the support of her dedicated therapy team.
Nelly can hold her head up, roll from her back to her tummy on her own, and is learning to crawl—milestones she meets with determination and pride. She loves listening to music and time outdoors is one of her favorite parts of the day, especially when she’s with her foster family and their friendly dog, who she adores.
Nelly is surrounded by love and encouragement in her foster home, where she’s formed a special bond with her caregivers. She thrives on gentle affection, connection, and shared joy. Nelly will flourish in a family who can celebrate her progress, nurture her development, and give her the warmth and security she deserves.
