Haven Pregnancy Support

Haven is a safe space for women, men and families to find information and get support when facing an We are here for you, you are not alone.”

“We understand that with an unintended pregnancy, baby loss or post termination, there’s often a need for practical and emotional support. Our team of Support Coordinators are here to journey with you and your family. We offer holistic care where we can connect you into practical support through our Windsor Park Life Care Trust, Char’s Place (our resource centre where you can access baby clothes and equipment) and through referrals to other organisations. We understand that each situation is unique, so we would discuss and assess how best we could be of support to you.

For some, Christmas can be a tender time — a season that brings both memories and longing. Windsor Park Baptist Church is doing a Blue Christmas Service, which is a gentle, candlelit service designed for those walking through pain, loss, or heartache this Christmas.

Through reflection, music, and moments of stillness, they'll make space for the God who meets us in our grief and gently renews our hope. Come as you are; here, your story belongs, and you are not alone.

Join us in the Kauri Room at Windsor Park Baptist Church on Sunday, December 14th at 7pm.

Important Update 💙

Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have had to cancel our planned Cherish event, which was scheduled to take place during Baby Loss Awareness Week on Friday, 10th October. We are truly sorry for any disappointment this may cause.

Though we can’t gather in person, we remain united in remembrance, love, and support.

We will post other events that are happening during Baby Loss Awareness accordingly, and we will have some gift packs available to create your own keepsake.

Take care and be gentle with yourself.

Our Cherish event is just three weeks away! It is open not only to men and women who have experienced miscarriage, but also welcomes all who have experienced baby loss, along with their family and friends. We gently hold space for grief, remembrance, and connection.

We have been preparing for the evening by applying a base coat on the stones, as shown in the photos. You don’t need to be an artist; you can make dots or write your baby's name on your keepsake. It is honouring memories through art and connection.

At Haven Pregnancy Support, we understand the profound pain of losing a baby, and we are here to offer compassion and support during such a difficult time. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful services provided by Windsor Funerals. Hazel and her team provided a beautiful Farewell Cocoon for one of our families, allowing them to carry their baby with love and dignity. They also arranged a peaceful setting for the farewell, which brought comfort to those involved.

We wholeheartedly recommend Windsor Funerals for their compassionate and gentle approach to guiding families through the heartache of loss. Furthermore, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the Windsor Funeral team for their generous donation to Haven Pregnancy Support, one of the services provided by Windsor Park LifeCare Trust. This support not only enhances the assistance we provide to mothers, babies, and families in our community but also reinforces our shared commitment to care and compassion in times of sorrow.

Today, we observe National Rainbow Baby Day on August 22nd to honour rainbow babies, remember those who came before them, and acknowledge each parent's journey.

After losing a baby during pregnancy or infancy, the experience of pregnancy is forever changed. A subsequent pregnancy can feel like a balancing act between happiness and sorrow, hope and anxiety. A rainbow baby is cherished and longed for, but parents who have experienced loss understand that there are no certainties. While a rainbow baby can never take the place of the baby who passed away, they deserve to be celebrated and recognised as part of the family’s journey, while always keeping the memory of their beloved baby who died in their hearts.

An encouragement to the mums and dads out there. When the days feel long and the nights even longer, let “one” be your lifeline. One cuddle, one smile, one nap—each moment is a tiny triumph.

You’re not just getting through; you’re growing something beautiful, one heartbeat at a time. You’re doing an incredible job, even when it is sometimes messy 🌈
