We strive to be a beacon of hope and support for families navigating the devastating journey of pregnancy and infant loss, providing refuge and guidance as they learn to live in the wake of their child’s death. Our services include practical, financial, and emotional support to families, aiming to mitigate the profound effects of grief, strengthen family bonds, and encourage social & community engagement.
Walk With Me’s comprehensive services are highlighted below.
Making Memories: Hospital Keepsake Kits
At Walk With Me, we believe every baby’s life—no matter how brief—matters deeply and deserves to be remembered with love, tenderness, and dignity. Our hospital keepsake kits were created to offer families a gentle place to begin their grief journey, honoring their child’s life in a tangible, meaningful way.
Each item in the kit was chosen with great care, with the hope of providing comfort and connection during an unthinkably difficult time. Kits include items such as Hand/Footprint Molds, Christmas Ornament Keepsake, Hair Locket Bag, Keepsake Bible, Wooden Footprint Ornament, Bereavement Books, and Lactation Support Information.
Walking With You Through Grief: The Counseling Fund
Walk With Me offers counseling service funds to help families access professional grief support. No one should have to walk through the pain of losing a child alone. We believe in the power of compassionate, trustworthy care—and we partner with vetted, experienced counselors who specialize in grief and infant loss. These funds are here to ease the burden of cost and connect families with the help they deserve. Talking to someone who truly understands can be a lifeline in the darkest moments, and we are committed to making that possible for every family we serve.
Finding Hope Together: Walk With Me Support Groups
Even with the love and care of family and friends, grieving parents often feel completely alone—like no one truly understands the depth of their loss. That’s why we created our Walk With Me support group community. This is a sacred space where grieving families can gather, share, and heal alongside others who have walked the same heartbreaking road. Here, you can speak your baby’s name, process your grief openly, and be met with compassion—not confusion. Our groups are led by moms and dads who have also experienced loss and are now living in the same hope they offer to others. In this circle, many families form life-long friendships and find strength, understanding, and encouragement from those who truly get it.
Love Delivered: Walk With Me Care Packages
Our care packages are created to bring comfort, connection, and compassion to families grieving the loss of their baby. These packages are sent to families after they return home from the hospital or when they find Walk With Me sometime after their loss. Each package is thoughtfully filled with small, meaningful items that gently say, “You are not alone.” From soothing comforts to tokens of remembrance, our care packages are a quiet extension of our support—meeting families where they are, in the heart of their grief.
We also offer a special Sibling Care Package, designed to support the often-overlooked brothers and sisters who are grieving in their own way. These packages include age-appropriate books on grief and a soft lavender-scented Warmie animal—small, tangible expressions that say to each child, “You are seen, and your feelings matter too.”
For parents who receive the devastating diagnosis that their baby is not compatible with life outside the womb, we provide our Anticipatory Care Package—a tender way to begin walking with families through the unimaginable. This package includes thoughtful resources and keepsakes to honor the baby’s life and help parents begin processing their grief, even before goodbye.
Every item we send is filled with intention, love, and the unwavering message: you are deeply supported, and we will walk with you every step of the way.
Always Remembered: Walk With Me Memorial Services
Through our memorial program, we help families stay connected to the memory of their baby in deeply personal and heartfelt ways. Grief does not follow a timeline, and we want each family to know that their child’s existence, memory, and impact continue to matter—not just to them, but to us as well. This program is filled with thoughtful gestures that say, “We remember with you.”
One of the most meaningful gifts we offer is a custom weighted bear, made to match the exact weight of the baby at birth—giving families something tangible to hold when their arms feel so empty. On the baby’s expected due date, if they were born early, we deliver a sweet treat as a tender reminder that they are not forgotten. On their first birthday in heaven, we send a stunning Night Sky print, capturing exactly what the sky looked like at the moment their baby was born—a lasting piece of their story written in the stars.
In addition to these milestone moments, we honor families throughout the year with special gifts at our Christmas Party, Mother’s Day Celebration, and Father’s Day Gathering—small but powerful reminders that their baby is still celebrated, still remembered, and still loved.
Sacred Farewell: Funeral & Celebration of Life Support
At Walk With Me, we know that when you’re preparing to welcome a new life, you never imagine having to plan for death. That’s why we offer a funeral assistance program—to walk alongside families facing the unimaginable task of making funeral, burial, cremation, or celebration of life decisions for their baby. Birthing a child comes with emotional and financial weight, whether or not a baby comes home—and no parent plans for the cost of laying their child to rest. Through generous donations and compassionate community support, Walk With Me helps carry the burden by offering financial assistance, guidance, and emotional support during these deeply painful first decisions.
We honor the significance of each child’s life by helping families navigate choices with dignity, grace, and love—whether it’s selecting cremation or burial, planning a memorial, or creating a sacred space to say goodbye. We know that offering this support not only eases immediate stress but also brings a sense of peace and hope in the midst of heartbreak. No family should have to face these moments alone—and with Walk With Me, they never will.
What’s Next: Life After Loss Support
Grief doesn’t end when the services are over or the hospital stay ends. That’s why we offer additional resources designed to walk with families as they begin to navigate life after loss. These resources support parents in the months and years that follow—when the world moves on, but their grief remains. Through practical tools, connection opportunities, and continued check-ins, we help families find footing again.
Our resources includes support for returning to work, caring for your relationship, accessing therapy, and navigating choices like parenting after loss or deciding not to try again. We also provide handouts and educational materials specifically for family members and friends, to help them better understand how to support grieving parents with compassion and sensitivity. These resources are a bridge—helping others show up in meaningful ways, even when they don’t know what to say.
It’s a space to ask hard questions, talk openly, and take one step at a time. You don’t have to figure out the next chapter on your own. We’ll walk with you through what comes next.
Help Us Make A Difference
At Walk With Me, we believe every person can make a difference—and every penny raised helps bring comfort, care, and connection to grieving families. Individuals can support our mission through monthly donations, which are the most reliable way to fuel our programs and prevent our small team from event burnout. Monthly giving keeps our support consistent and our reach growing. You can also launch your own peer-to-peer fundraising campaign, ask your employer for a donation match, or even make a gift of stock donations. However you choose to give, your generosity directly impacts families in their most vulnerable moments—and ensures they never have to walk this road alone.
