Our Staff

Maggie is the Founder and Director of The Baby Depot. Maggie saw the glaring need to help Hamilton’s babies in need when another organization that was delivering baby hampers stopped functioning. In 2013, with the help of family and friends, Maggie started The Baby Depot out of her home. The first Christmas they helped 10 families and since then over 400 families have been served by The Baby Depot. What is Maggie’s motivation to continue this mission? She says "We need to show our neighbours they are not alone- especially the littlest ones in our community".

As the Community Relations Coordinator, Mary is committed to supporting The Baby Depot’s mission to recycle clothing and essential baby gear and match it to Hamilton families in need. She is passionate about making sure no child lacks the necessities for a healthy start.

Mary is driven by the knowledge that collective small acts of generosity from the community can make a huge difference in the lives of families, giving them hope and relieving some of the pressures that come with raising young children. By coordinating volunteer efforts and community outreach, she helps ensure that The Baby Depot’s mission of helping families in need remains at the forefront of everything she does. Mary is committed to showing just how powerful collective care and support can be in lifting families up when they need it the most.
