Hi there! I'm Danielle.
As an educator, school administrator, and mama, I’ve long believed that knowledge is the key to empowering women to face their infertility journey head on.
Since completing my coaching certification at NYU in 2012, I’ve been blessed to offer support to so many women in the online infertility world. In 2022, I welcomed my son, our IVF miracle, to our family.
But maybe your happy family feels far away.
I remember that feeling.
Everywhere I looked for support was dreary. Google searches yielded scary statistics. Support groups were filled with stories, one worse than the next. Online forms seemed only to offer contradictory advice. I was overwhelmed — I realized that there was a large knowledge gap between what I needed and what medical appointments could provide.
So, I decided to change that.
Infertility is hard.
Pregnancy is uncertain.
Motherhood is complex.
What started in online groups, became direct messages, and grew into coaching relationships in an area of education I never expected. I started my teaching career in prisons and later transitioned to elementary education. Eventually I became a school leader. But my early mornings and nights were filled with discussions about fertility. Since then I have built resources and facilitated small group coaching around sensitive topics. Above all this is how I felt called to serve. This is my vocation.
I started Foundations Fertility, to be the resource that I wish I’d had.
I want you to feel empowered on your pathway to parenthood. I want you to feel worth in the waiting period. I want you to connect with your partner in one of the biggest challenges of your life.
My goal is to help educate IVF patients, newly pregnant mamas, and those embarking on the postpartum days in a supportive way; so you feel confident advocating for yourself.
And if you care about academic accolades: I have a Master of Science in Education, Johns Hopkins University (2017) where I received the Transformational Impact Distinction award, Master of Arts in Leadership, Rhode Island College (2016), Life & Professional Coaching Certification, New York University (2012), and Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Women & Gender Studies, The College of New Jersey (2013).
