About Us
We became members of a club nobody ever wants to be in: the bereaved parents club. If that is you too I am so sorry. But I want you to know that you are not alone in this and that you and your precious baby are dearly loved.
After our baby died, every day was triggering and exhausting on so many levels. We scoured the internet and libraries to find some hope that we were not alone and we would [somehow] survive. We noticed how there were healing words deep in the pages of old books no longer in print, websites older than the internet, and in the hearts of people who have also felt this pain. Eventually, we did find friends and resources that were an amazing help for us. Part of honoring our daughter's little life has meant giving back to the baby loss community in every way possible.
Our goal is that this site is concise, validating, and helpful. All of the resources on this site were something that we found helpful for us or our friends going through the same thing, so we hope this is can be a gift to you. As we honor and remember our sweet baby girl, Gemma Hope, we hold space in our hearts for yours.

Future Projects
There are numerous other ways we want to consider helping parents grieve and remember their child. Some of these future ideas include:
- Free breastmilk bags for loss moms pumping and donating their breastmilk
- Discounted editing/publishing services for moms wanting to share their story or poetry and support our mission
- Funeral home body bags made specifically for micropreemies and very small babies that are modern, sweet, and cozy for their little bodies
- Opening up a coffee shop/truck that provides adequate employment to parents who are unable to return to work while also providing free counseling and mental health resources as part of the employee benefits. This dream would also help fund our other projects and programs and spread our message, one cup at a time.
