The St. Croix Birth & Parenting Story

Picture
St. Croix Birth & Parenting was operated as a sole proprietorship beginning in 2006, but reorganized as a nonprofit Limited Liability Company by Christelle Hagen, in Minnesota in 2018.  SCBP is a nonprofit alliance of fertility, birth and family professionals honoring life. Our mission is "accompanying families through the Joys and Sorrows of birth & parenting."  As Infant Attachment Specialists, we seek to help growing families build a strong foundation by promoting those parenting practices that foster deep, loving bonds. 

St. Croix Birth & Parenting financially supports the work of Tiny Treasures Perinatal Loss Resources, a group of volunteers who help families experiencing perinatal challenges, including hospitalizations and infant loss.  Tiny Treasures provides appropriately sized baby clothing to families facing or experiencing loss during pregnancy, at birth, and in early infancy.  Your patronage of this nonprofit company allows us to support families before, during, and after the loss of their baby.

Our logo depicts the iconic Stillwater Lift Bridge, paying tribute to St. Croix Birth & Parenting's beloved hometown and evoking our calling to help new families as you navigate the joys, challenges, and sorrows of parenting -- your unique journey to parenthood.
