Question

A woman is about to give birth on Shabbat and she has children at home. Can she take the children with her in the ambulance and drop them off with someone who will watch over them?

Answer

If there are only small children and no one to watch over them, and it is urgent, it is permitted. However, if there is time to arrange, it is not allowed.
