Welcome

Lori-ProfessionalMy name is Lori Martini; I am a bereaved parent and Perinatal Bereavement Coach/Consultant.

Thank you for visiting my website, which has been developed to help care providers who offer medical, emotional and spiritual support to parents and families who have experienced the profound devastation of a baby dying (through a miscarriage, stillbirth or early infant death.)

I also welcome bereaved parents who have integrated their grief into their lives and who now offer support to newly bereaved families. When a baby dies, no matter how early in the pregnancy, it is heart breaking and confusing to know what to say or do when offering your support to these families. The intention of my website is to help with just that.


Please spend some time exploring my website. Read about my FREE coaching manual called “Healing From The Start, which offers information on how to care for a newly bereaved family in a way that would minimize the parents regrets and to support these families on their grief journey in a healthy and empowering way. Read the Why Make Memories page, my personal stillbirth story and consider using my survey for bereaved parents in order to get feedback for making improvements to your bereavement program.

I highly encourage your thoughts and feedback on my website too. I strongly feel the only way to improve is to know where to improve. My goal is to support the supporters and the end result could be that newly bereaved parents will benefit tenfold and be able to truly “Heal From The Start.”

***BRAND NEW***  JUST ADDED TO MY WEBSITE:  I now have a section on my website dedicated to offering support to newly bereaved parents in need of Peer Support (to learn more please take a look at the section called Support For Bereaved Parents.)
