About Stephen's Heart
Stephen’s Heart was founded in late 2013, after Renee and Chris’s son, Stephen, was stillborn at 37 weeks. Touched when the nurses dressed Stephen in a handmade gown and blanket made by a caring stranger, before leaving the hospital the next morning, Renee knew that she wanted to give back to other parents experiencing the same pain that they were feeling. Renee’s mother, Judy, made Stephen a beautiful blanket and hat for his cremation. The hat had a crooked heart on it, and the idea behind Stephen’s Heart was formed.
Our mission is to provide handmade baby blanket and hat sets to grieving parents who have suffered pregnancy or infant loss. We donate the blanket and hat sets to local hospitals in the Maryland area.
