The Perinatal Loss Training
& Support Company
For Loss Families & Professionals
Welcome to Evelyn James & Company
At Evelyn James & Company, we are dedicated to transforming perinatal loss care by equipping hospitals, healthcare professionals and doulas with the tools, training, and resources needed to provide compassionate and comprehensive support for bereaved families.
The Story Behind Evelyn James and Company
The HEART behind this company is a combination of Evelyn’s Legacy, Me (her grieving Mom) and the hundreds of women & other humans who have shared in our story and company.
Family is everything. Whether it is one you are born into or one you create yourself, it is the one thing that makes all this life worth it. When a baby dies, there is a version of us that dies and we can never go back. Being supported in the worst tragedy of my life was the difference between me taking my own life and surviving to take on another day in grief. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for my midwife, my nurse, my doula, and my military community. Using my unique experience in loss and community, I strive to create a network of the best Bereavement Support in the WORLD. This starts with our training and have continued support in YOUR journey and career as well.
Our mission is to ensure families are supported in the BEST way during and after the loss of their sweet babies. But also supported at HOME. Most bereaved mothers are left alone until their 6-week checkup, they are lucky to get a call from a caring nurse or provider. This is not acceptable. By training and supporting professionals, I hope to assist in developing a protocol that allows support for these families at home in the first 6 weeks.
We need a way to monitor mental health, healing, and resilience after tremendous loss. This is where Bereavement & Postpartum Doulas come in. As well as any other professional in any field that assists these families.
Our goal is to train 10,000 professionals by 2030 in Pregnancy Loss Education. We hope YOU will be a part of our mission.
The heart behind our company lives on through Evelyn and my vision for a fully supported Bereaved Community.
Our story started during my most beautiful pregnancy, I was glowing, I felt vibrant and happy. I started labor on my own which was miraculous considering I was induced my two previous births. I was elated. LIttle did I know she had died around the time I started labor. Fast Forward to being at the hospital, my Doula and I found out her heart had stopped. ( My husband was on a 7-month deployment at the time). This started my journey as a loss mom. A journey none of us were ever meant to be on. I went on to become a Postpartum and Bereavement Doula, supporting families in the biggest transitions in life. I felt like I was right where I was meant to be.
As I continued working as a Postpartum Doula, I realized the lack of Bereavement Training for Birth and Postpartum Doulas. I went through trying to find a training to take and in all honesty, I could not find one that seemed like a good fit for me. I wanted to know how to support these families while showing compassion, providing hope and instilling resilience in them at the same time.
This is the message that I intertwined in my training once I decided to create my own. This training is filled with evidence-based information AND experience & emotional information from me and other moms and families that have lost their children. It is a holistic training that teaches you to take care of others AND yourself. You will leave with a full heart and knowledge that can be used in all types of bereavement situations.

A Conversation on Pregnancy Loss
With Raising Illinois, Gifts from Liam and Evelyn James and Company.
Raising Illinois partnered with Gifts from Liam and Evelyn James Co for a discussion on pregnancy loss. In this frank and meaningful conversation, Anna Calix and Vallen Webb sit down with Raising Illinois Community Engagement Lead Jesse Rojo to discuss their experiences with stillbirth, the stigmas and systemic struggles they faced, and the need for more open conversation about pregnancy loss. We’re so thankful to Anna & Vallen for sharing their stories with us, and we hope this generates more conversation so that we can better support those in our communities experiencing loss.
