Harriet Abbott Lincoln Coolidge (1849 - 1902) was an American philanthropist, author and reformer. She did much in the way of instructing young mothers in the care and clothing of infants, and furthered the cause to improve the condition of infants in foundling hospitals. She contributed a variety of articles on kindergarten matters to the daily press, and while living in Washington D.C., she gave a series of "nursery talks" for mothers at her home, where she fitted up a model nursery.
