Feel Prepared, Supported, and Confident in Your 4th Trimester
A self-paced course and planning framework for first-time parents — plus two 30-minute coaching calls for personalized support before and after birth.
Best for:
First-time parents who want more than information — they want to feel supported, grounded, and held through both planning and the early postpartum adjustment.
Everything in Foundations, PLUS:
Two 30-minute private coaching calls (virtual)
Use them flexibly:
Both during pregnancy or
One before birth + one after baby arrives
Optional partner attendance
(so you’re aligned and supported as a team)
Together, we can:
Review and refine your postpartum plan
Identify support gaps, stress points, and risk factors
Adjust boundaries, roles, and expectations as real life unfolds
Talk through emotions, fears, and “Is this normal?” moments
Help you feel less alone during a tender transition
Postpartum call can focus on:
Emotional check-in
PMAD screening, normalization, & referrals
Boundary or visitor stress
Feeding or sleep overwhelm
Relationship strain
For parents who want to feel held, not just informed.
Why Parents Choose Held:
They want support after the baby arrives — not just before.
They want planning and presence when it matters most.
They know the positive impacts high quality, personalized care and support can have on the whole family.
