“I was surprised when I found out that I was pregnant. I had two previous high-risk pregnancies that ended in loss, and was told I wouldn’t be able to have children. I was career-focused; I had a job working with the city and I wasn’t ready or expecting to have a child at the age of 30.

I felt a bit overwhelmed because I would be a first-time mom. I was an orphan myself without family support, so I wasn’t sure I could perform my best or know what to do to provide for my baby.

I experienced top-tier services at Alcove Health, free healthcare services, and tons of resources, including baby supplies and free maternity classes, which helped a lot. They provided me with postpartum and anxiety support through resources and someone to communicate with, without judgement.

Alcove Health has changed my life and helped me become a confident mom. They are the village that every mother needs.“
