How we can help
This isn’t the way it was supposed to be. The days of an infant’s life should not be numbered. If you’re experiencing this pain, please allow us to shoulder some of your burden by taking the overwhelming logistics of loss of your plate.
I am with you always

Let us Serve you Through
Services We Offer
We currently offer 3 services to families that are referred to us by hospital social worker teams. We aim to offer services that will free you up to be with your loved ones instead of immediately jumping into logistics.
Meals
Meal services to feed you and your family so you don’t have to put time into this.
Funeral Planning
Conducting a funeral is a beautiful way to honor the life of your baby and take a huge step in the healing process. We have established relationships with excellent partners that allow us to quickly make arrangements so you’re not left making multiple calls and touring cemeteries.
Advice & Counseling
Talk to a counselor or someone who’s been there before.
Our Engagement Model
How to Initiate These Services
We are deeply sorry for your loss. If you’ve contacted us because your hospital social worker has provided you with this brochure, you’ve come to the right place to learn more. If you’d like to initiate services, please ask your social worker to let us know, and we’ll be in contact with you.
We aspire to serve as many families in need as possible. Our foundation has established partnerships with hospital social worker teams to identify families in immediate need. If you’re not at a location we currently serve please ask your hospital social worker to initiate contact with us via this form.
Immediate Considerations
Processing what just happened is an impossible task, and we are here to help with the legwork. As hard as it may sound, it can be helpful to discuss the items below with your partner, your family, your friends, and/or with us to help guide time-sensitive next steps. This will allow you to answer difficult questions the hospital may have and help us start to operate on your behalf:
- Choices in remembrance: Burial or cremation, Conducting a funeral
-
Information gathering: Some immediate next steps (such as filing for a death certificate) may require information gathering that is a bit uncomfortable. Start thinking about who will field these questions as they arise as some of them may be very private/sensitive.
Resources
Kind words, good books, and songs shared by our loved ones can go a long way in helping to process grief. Below is a very small taste of recommendations that friends have shared with us that we thought we’d pass along to you. Please consider visiting our social media page for additional input from our community.
