Emotional support

Emotional support

Anyone who has ever experienced infertility can attest to the overwhelming anxiety, often suffering in silence and isolation. Our emotional support offerings ensure you are not alone in your journey.

*Please note not all forms of support may be available at all times, as we rely on the generosity of external service providers and donations. Our goal is to ensure that the emotional support we provide aligns with where you are in your journey, and we strive to customise our services to best suit your unique circumstances.

Peer Support Companions

Our Peer Support Companions are at the heart of our emotional support program. We will connect you with a Peer Support Companion who has walked a fertility path. Our trained volunteer Companions are here to offer reassurance and a listening ear, reminding you that you’re not alone.

Pick me ups

Our care packs, heartwarming meals, and challah deliveries bring comfort and love in moments of challenge. Additionally, we offer free movie tickets during your 2-week wait after embryo transfer to give you some much-needed distraction.

Counselling referrals

Connecting you with specialised and caring psychologists through our network to help you through your fertility journey. We can provide referrals to psychologists when it’s needed.

Travelling with ease

We alleviate anxiety on egg collection/embryo transfer days by offering complimentary Uber trips to and from your appointment.

Miscarriage and Loss program

Our carefully curated program supports you and your family while navigating the difficult road of miscarriage and loss.
