Rainbows of Joy support group
Welcome to Rainbows of Joy in the Antelope Valley & Santa Clarita Valley. This group was created to offer support to one another through the experience of pregnancy and parenting following pregnancy and/or infant loss. We recognize the limited support resources available in our local area, and strive to offer a safe and validating space for parents to connect.
The grief and healing journey is part of your own unique experience and we ask that all group members are respectful of where each person is in their own journey. This space is safe, supportive, validating, and compassionate. There is no pressure to share- you do not need to take part in the dialogue of this group; it is more than OK for you to just be in the presence of other parents.
Your group facilitators are Rosalyn Skelton, Patty Grider, and Debra Osterkamp. As Certified Birth & Bereavement Doulas, we are here to support you. We are available to provide everything from labor support as your birth your baby, to information connecting you with resources for support. We can help you find ways to celebrate your rainbow baby, while also honoring babies lost. Please feel free to reach out to us for any specific support you may need. You may use this form to communicate with a support group facilitator and provide feedback, ask questions, or share concerns.
