Allie has walked with me and my family through many difficult seasons with wisdom, grace, and expertise. Allie's children's book gave us the exact words we needed to explain the hard news. It's easy to feel overwhelmed even in the easier seasons of parenting and Allie helped us feel confident and less anxious while we walked through this hard time. I'm so grateful for Allie and Child Life To Go!"

Sarah, Parent

"Allie’s resources and children’s book helped me to feel less fearful of using honest, realistic words with my daughter. I am so glad I turned to Allie in our time of need. I truly believe I am able to help my daughter healthily process our family member's illness because of Allie’s knowledge, expertise and creativity."

-Marcy, Parent

"Allie gave us tools and helped us communicate, make memories, create legacy, and move forward in positive ways during my husband's illness and after the loss."

Heather, Parent

"Allie helped me tremendously as I was navigating changes in my relationship with my teenage children following my diagnosis of terminal brain cancer. She listened empathetically, helped me see new sides to our family dynamics, and provided tools and resources to use with my children. I am so grateful for her heart for children and families going through health crises. Her support was an answer to prayer in an incredibly challenging season."

Jenae, Parent

"As a Certified Child Life Specialist (CCLS) I am constantly creating new resources for patients and families. Child Life to Go takes that step out of the process and allows me to quickly reference and provide high quality information to the patients I serve. The caliber of the accompanying activity book is unmatched and allows for the CCLS to have meaningful engagement with the patient while providing great education. I am SO grateful for Child Life to Go!"
