This kit gives you the language, checklists, memory-making options, advocacy tools, and grounding support to help you walk into loss situations with more confidence, compassion, and care.

Most birth professionals are trained for the happy outcome...

But what happens when there is no heartbeat?

What happens when the baby is born still?

What happens when a miscarriage is more physically and emotionally intense than anyone had prepared the family for?

What happens when the family is looking at you, and you are silently thinking:

“I don’t know what to say.”
“I don’t know what to do next.”
“I don’t want to make this worse.”
“I thought I was prepared, but I’m not sure I am.”

This is exactly why this kit exists.

What People Are Saying

  • “The pregnancy loss education training I took with Evelyn James & Co. was an incredible experience. It was a very comprehensive training, and I felt as though it was extremely beneficial in my personal journey to better understand how to navigate supporting bereavement and loss. I cannot wait to carry this knowledge into my practice and be able to aid families in a more respectful and emotionally competent way. I was honored to be a part of this community of like-minded professionals, and I highly recommend involving yourself with their services because these women are incredibly compassionate in educating others.”

    — Kalani R.

  • “I'm new to postpartum doula work. Prior to taking this course, I was dreading what I would do if I encountered pregnancy loss. Like, I had this big pit of sadness and anxiety in my stomach. I think the biggest takeaway hearing what it is like experiencing a loss and supporting a loss. And knowing that that pit in my stomach is normal and shows my compassion and empathy. I feel like I am much more full of strategies, knowledge, and passion for this work now.”

    — Rachel J.

  • The work that Vallen is doing is so important-- this content should be a part of every doula and birth professional's knowledge base! As a doula and perinatal mental health professional in-training, having the opportunity to move through this material in an informed, compassionate, community space felt invaluable. Vallen's heart is in every bit of this, and she is doing such a beautiful thing through turning tragedy to teaching and providing the opportunity for folks to increase their comfortability with supporting clients navigating loss. So many rippling effects come from this-- thanks, Vallen!

  • What Vallen and her team at Evelyn James have created in The Pregnancy Loss Education Course is education mixed with a passion to create a network of support for doulas and the families we serve. Not only do you come away with practical skills to help families, but you come away with the knowledge and confidence to connect with others in this tricky sector of our industry. She helps demystify loss situations which leaves you empowered to help. The entire team at Evelyn James is there to support you before, during and after your training so you end up with support, and industry friends, for life.

    -Maren S.

  • I am an Advanced postpartum doula & I just finished this course on Perinatal loss and the information in this course is beyond valuable. It leaves you with the understanding of the loss of a child and the grieving and mourning of such a life altering moment in time that never leaves you. What can you do as a doula? You need to be knowledgeable about your resources at hand, the rights of the parents, and to validate their thoughts and feelings. Don’t rush them to make decisions! Listen & acknowledge where they are emotionally & physically. You are there to help them process what has happened in their time with no judgement Or expectations.

    -Terissa B.

  • The Pregnancy Loss Training by Evelyn James and Company is very comprehensive and created with a lot of heart, understanding, and empathy by Vallen, who has experienced her own pregnancy loss. It covers topics I hadn't even considered that come into play as families navigate their grief. I feel much more prepared to support families through pregnancy loss than prior to taking the training. As a birth doula, I believe pregnancy loss training should be a required for certification, because when we do this work long term, we will inevitably experience a client's loss. Being prepared to offer the right support at this time is critical.

When working in our field, you DO NOT prepare for loss AFTER it happens.

You prepare before you are the person standing in the room with a grieving family.

Pregnancy and infant loss support is not about fixing grief. It is not about having perfect words. It is not about becoming emotionless or clinical.

It is about knowing how to slow the moment down, offer choices, protect the family’s space, use compassionate language, and support the baby’s memory with dignity.

It is about being steady when everything feels shattered.

MEET YOUR TEACHER

Hi, I’m Vallen!

The founder and creator of Evelyn James & Company.

I’m a mom of five, a pregnancy loss educator, bereavement doula, podcast host, co-author, and the mom of Kalliana, Violet, Emmett, Bohdi and Evelyn James, my daughter who was stillborn at 40 weeks and 5 days.

Losing Evelyn changed my life in every possible way. It changed how I saw grief, motherhood, birth, support, and the way families are cared for when the unthinkable happens. After her death, I realized how deeply families need compassionate, informed support, and how many professionals want to help but do not always know what to say, what to do, or how to show up when a baby dies.

That is why I created Evelyn James & Company.

Here, we support grieving families through resources, keepsakes, podcast episodes, in-person bereavement support, and honest conversations about pregnancy loss, infant loss, motherhood, and life after loss.

We also train doulas, nurses, birth workers, therapists, and perinatal professionals to support families through miscarriage, stillbirth, TFMR, neonatal loss, infant loss, pregnancy after loss, and the grief that follows.

My heart is to help families feel less alone and to help professionals feel more prepared, compassionate, and confident in the hardest moments while also taking care of themselves.

This work exists because Evelyn lived. Because she mattered. Because families deserve better support. And because the people walking beside them deserve the tools to do this work with care.

I’m so glad you’re here. I cannot wait to meet you and see what a difference you will make!
