Canada’s first and only holistic in-home postnatal care platform for new parents, Alma Care, and Twig Fertility, or Twig, which is a leader when it comes to Canadian fertility as well as the reproductive health spectrum, are overwhelmed to announce their partnership in order to help elevate the postpartum journey as far as Twig families are concerned. Via Alma Care, Twig Fertility is now going to offer patients hands-on and in-home postpartum support, hence addressing the critical gaps when it comes to care after birth.

Families who graduate from the Extended Pregnancy Program by Twig will now get a $200 credit in terms of the white glove from Alma Care for in-home care, along with customized care planning by way of Alma Care’s Care Concierge, for a custom-made, informed, as well as supported postpartum experience and hence in a way elevate the postpartum journey.  The launch happens to be a part of the efforts made by Twig Fertility so as to decrease the support gaps that exist in patient journeys and also part of the recent efforts made by Alma Care when it comes to expanding the proactive postpartum care offerings that it comes with. 

According to the co-founder and CEO of Alma Care, Melissa Gallagher, “I know firsthand that it can feel both overwhelming and isolating to begin planning for your fourth trimester after your fertility journey. Our goal is to make the transition feel supported and thoughtful, whether you’re welcoming your first child or growing your family. Together, we’re closing critical gaps in the care journey so families feel supported through postpartum.”

Says Co-Founder of Twig Fertility, Tanner Kohara, “The first few weeks with a newborn are incredible, but they can also be overwhelming. We always strive to support our patients through their fertility journeys, and we appreciate how Alma Care focuses on providing a high level of support in the postpartum phase of family building. This partnership gives Twig patients a great option to receive postpartum care, should they want or need it.”

Unlike other fertility clinics that exist, Twig happens to support across through week 12, beyond the usual nine weeks. For patients who apparently go on to complete the Extended Pregnancy Program from Twig, their family can very well go ahead and connect with an Alma Care care navigator and make use of their credit when it comes to holistic postnatal services that range from mom and newborn care as well as nutrition and wellness to education and housekeeping along with ongoing support.

It is well to be noted that Twig Fertility blends leading fertility specialists along with state-of-the-art IVF labs as well as a patient-first approach, hence offering IVF, egg freezing, LGBT2SQ+ family building, etc. Due to postpartum support from Alma Care, the Canadian families can now go ahead and enhance outcomes pertaining to their postnatal journey. Twig patients can go ahead and access the in-home postpartum support from Alma Care via their care team.
