Raising a child with mental health or developmental challenges is not easy. Parents often feel overwhelmed trying to meet their child’s emotional, behavioral, and daily needs. That’s why Mental Health Home Care is so important — and that’s where Cottage Home Care Services can help.
We provide professional, compassionate home care for children with mental health and developmental conditions. OPWDD (Office for People With Developmental Disabilities) approves our services, and we offer them across New York.
What Is Mental Health Home Care?
Mental Health Home Care helps children with emotional, psychological, or behavioral needs. It provides support in the comfort of their own home. These services are designed to help children:
- Cope with anxiety, depression, or stress
- Manage behavioral challenges
- Improve communication and social skills
- Follow routines and build life skills
- Receive support outside of clinical settings
Our goal is to make life easier for both the child and their family by providing the right care at the right time.
How OPWDD Services Help Children

- Community Habilitation – Teaching children important life and social skills
- Respite Care – Giving parents or guardians time to rest or recharge
