Adoption specific newborn education
From bonding and safety to newborn care and feeding this course covers it all.
Hi, I'm Valerie
I'm a Certified Postpartum Doula, Certified Lactation Counselor, and mom of 3 (including identical twins)...
I’ve spent 8 years showing hundreds of parents what the heck to do with their squirmy little newborns.
Whether you have a partner or you’re a single parent, raising a baby takes a village (even if it’s a socially distant village) and there are many ways to get the support you need.
Traditionally, there is not a lot of postpartum care for adoptive parents even though your need to care for your newborn is the exact same.
And that’s why I took all of my experience serving families in the first few months of their child’s life and I created an adoption-specific newborn care class just for you whether you have a partner or are adopting as a single parent!
What Adoption Professionals are saying

- Libby Denniston, Lifetime Adoptions
"Valerie's program is not like anything I've seen offered in the adoption world!"
