This kit offers trauma-informed language, gentle guidance, and meaningful activities to help siblings understand what happened, feel emotionally safe, and remain connected to their family and their baby sibling.

This kit supports:
Explaining pregnancy or infant loss in age-appropriate ways
Parenting through grief while supporting living children
Answering difficult questions with honesty and care
Validating big emotions such as sadness, anger, fear, or confusion
