Founder & President

Latoya Blueford  is the founder of The Skylar Project, a  child-loss-survivor and former NICU-mother, a wife, sister, and friend. She is a Certified Pregnancy and Infant Loss Advocate, Postpartum-Doula, member of Postpartum Support International,  member of DONA International, involved in the Shine-for-Autumn legislation, and former rape-crisis advocate through Lifelines Counseling Services.  Latoya's life goal is to walk the NICU journey with families offering a display of hope, that no matter what the final outcome is, you are not alone and will come out of this journey stronger. Her defining quote is, "One day you will tell your story of how you overcame what you went through and it will be someone else's survival guide."

 -Brene Brown.

 In her free time she advocates for NICU postpartum mental health, volunteers her time and resources in her local community, and develops new ways to improve conditions for NICU families.
