The 5% Fund

When our founder first began working with newborns, she quickly learned there was a significant gap in the way our society supports new mothers. Many other cultures around the world are doing something extraordinarily right--especially in how they care for the postpartum woman. When a baby is born, the mother is supposed to recuperate, her activities are limited, and her female relatives take care of her. Her meals are prepared, the home is well-kept, and she has extra newborn support as she rests and recovers. Baby Bloom bridges the gap for families in Rhode Island and beyond.

But what about the families who cannot afford to pay for these services?

The 5% Fund was developed to remedy this problem. It is time that we recognize and meet the needs of postpartum women no matter their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or income.

The health and wellness of our families depend on it.

 

The 5% Fund Family Testimonials

“Very grateful for Tyler and all of her knowledge especially since I do not have any other support as a single mom.” -E.

“My family and I had a wonderful experience with Tyler. She is extremely kind, supportive, understanding, caring, knowledgeable, and encouraging. Tyler helped our little one with night wakings by thoroughly and genuinely getting to know us. She was always available to support us with suggestions and to simply answer questions. I highly recommend Baby Bloom. So grateful for our experience, but even more grateful for Tyler and her kindness!” -K.

“After taking the Newborn Care Class, I feel more confident and empowered welcoming our new baby in just a short few weeks from now. I am feeling more educated with what to expect regarding feedings, growth spurts and cues. I think that Tyler’s years of experience working with different families and different infants, different belief systems and ways of parenting is a real benefit to get a broad grasp of what to expect in the next few months. Being reminded that as a mother, we will know our baby and their needs best was reassuring. Tyler has such a calm, beautiful energy about her. I will definitely continue to work with her and Baby Bloom in the months to come!! Thank you so much, Tyler!!” -M.
