Maddie's Footprints provides support to families coping with miscarriage, stillbirth and infant loss.

10/27/2026

Some days, grief feels heavier than others.

Remember to give yourself grace, take things one day at a time, and allow yourself the space to heal. You don’t have to have it all together to be doing your best. Be gentle with yourself.

Join us tomorrow at our Maddie's Lafayette office for our noon-time Grief Support Group— a safe space to share, connect, and remind one another that we don’t have to walk through grief alone. 👣

(Overflow parking will be in the right-side lot and also behind the building.)

At Maddie's Footprints, we know there are no words that can ease the pain of losing your baby. During this unimaginable time, we want you to know that you are not alone.

Founded in memory of Madeline McGrew, Maddie's Footprints has spent the past seventeen years providing hope, healing, and compassionate support to families experiencing miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss. We have had the privilege of walking alongside more than 4,500 families, offering financial assistance, grief support, resources, and a community that understands.

Whether your loss happened today or you simply need someone to walk beside you in the days ahead, we are here for you. When you're ready, we invite you to reach out. Together, we will honor your baby's life and help you find hope, one step at a time.

You are not alone.👣

📣 Support Group Parking Update

Just a friendly reminder that parking may be limited on Wednesday, October 28, 2026.

If our main parking area is full, additional parking will be available behind Maddie’s building and along the right side of the building.

Thank you for your patience and understanding! We look forward to seeing you and spending time together.

We invite you to join us this Wednesday! Come as you are, bring a friend, and enjoy a time of connection, encouragement, and support. We can’t wait to see you there! 👣

Grief looks different in every season, and sometimes we just need to know we’re not standing here alone.

If you’re missing your baby today, this space is for you. 🕊

What’s one thing you wish you could whisper to your baby today?
What song reminds you of them?
What’s a memory that still makes you smile through the tears?

Share as much or as little as your heart allows. No judgment, no pressure—just love, memories, and a community that understands. 🤍

If you’re comfortable, leave their name or a 👣 in the comments so we can honor the babies we carry in our hearts.

You don’t have to grieve alone.

Happy 5-Year Work Anniversary, Ashley!

Five years of showing up, loving big, and making a difference in so many lives! You’re so much more than Maddie’s Program Director— you’re our lifeline to our families, our go-to person, our biggest advocate, and such a special part of our journey. We are beyond grateful for the heart, dedication, and love you pour into what you do. Thank you for always being there, for connecting the dots, and for making sure our families feel supported and cared for. We truly couldn’t do it without you! Here’s to celebrating YOU and all the lives you’ve touched over the last five years. 👣

One light, countless memories, and so much love that will never fade. This month, we remember the babies gone too soon, honor the families who carry their love every day, and hold space for the grief that is often unseen. You are not alone; your baby is not forgotten, and your love will always matter.

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. Forever loved, forever remembered. 🦋

October can bring a lot of emotions, especially when you’re navigating life after loss. We believe no one should have to walk through grief alone; that's the whole Mission of Maddie's. Our grief support group is a safe space to share, connect, and find comfort with others who understand. You don’t have to have the right words or have it all figured out — just come as you are.

You are welcome here. You are supported here. You are not alone. 👣

Making a difference, one number at a time! Every number represents local lives touched, connections made, and a community growing stronger together.

10/13/2026

Sometimes, the people we miss most find their way back to us in the smallest, most unexpected moments. A butterfly, a memory, a familiar feeling that reminds us love never truly leaves us.

At Maddie’s, we believe the love we carry for those we’ve lost can become something beautiful — a reason to keep going, a purpose to hold onto, and a way to make a difference in the lives of others.

They may no longer walk beside us, but their love continues to guide us.
