We are full of gratitude for the sponsors and donors who helped make the Still A Mom retreat the special day it was. We thank each and every one of our supporters for believing in us to carry our mission forward and create a meaningful day for mothers who have experienced pregnancy and infant loss.

The perfect ending for the Still A Mom retreat was handing out these thoughtfully curated self-care bags, so the moms could continue their self-care beyond the gathering.

The bags were made possible by our sponsors, donors, and of course our volunteer committee for curating such intentional comfort items.

Astraea Fragrance Haus fragrances and candles
Dolci Fiori Florist bouquets
The Vera Rose Foundation postpartum grief affirmation cards
Metabolic Health & Wellness self love bath salts
Journals and pens with writing prompts

Also included:
A detailed Still A Mom list of supports
An informal resource guide from The Vera Rose Foundation
Memorial jewellery information Forget-me-not Jewels
Memorial bear information Cuddle for Keeps
Support and volunteer information from Pregnancy and Infant Loss Network - PAIL Network as well as a pin for pregnancy and infant loss awareness day

As self-care can often become neglected in grief, we hope attendees find comfort, connection, and support in these items.

We are pleased to announce our venue and catering for the Still A Mom retreat June 14, 2026. As some of you know, we had to make some swift changes due to unforeseen circumstances, and we are delighted to now be partnering with The Veranda Sarnia and Personal Touch Eatery & Catering

The Veranda is a special venue owned and operated by Danielle whom is a supporter of nonprofits and grass roots initiatives. The Veranda is a space with the intention of bringing people together and that’s exactly what we plan to do with a meaningful afternoon at the Still A Mom retreat.

With more than 25 years in the hospitality industry, Personal Touch Eatery & Catering specializes in thoughtfully crafted dining experiences and custom catering. Nourishment for the Still A Mom gathering is a vital part of the day and we are confident attendees will enjoy coming together over lunch and refreshments prepared with care by Chef Paresh.

Much gratitude to our dedicated planning committee for exploring options and promptly securing alternatives for venue and catering 🤍
