It took a lot of convincing to take some of the Jewish children. Irena had to convince the parents to let their children go with her and that they were going to a safe place to stay until the war was over. Lots of the children were not reunited with their parents because the parents had died in the concentration camps. She did save over 2,500 Jewish Children though.

Irena helped over 2,500 Jewish children. She and her team made over 3,000 false documents to help the Jewish children and there parents before she joined  Zegota and the children's division. Once Irena smuggled out the children she put them into good homes and wrote as much information down about them as possible. She then barried that information in a bottle in her yard to dig up once the war was over. So when the war was over she could dig up the bottles and try to reconnect the children with their parents.

Irena used many ways to smuggle out children but the most used way was through the old courthouse on the edge of the Warsaw Ghetto. She also used many other methods like being hidden under stretchers of ambulances, a trolley to car out children in a sack, trunk, or suitcase. It was hard to convince the parents to let their children go with her but most of them did.
