Foster Nation

Jade aged out of the foster care system after five years, maintaining her sense of optimism and resilience despite many challenges. After being separated from her twin sister and family, she learned to be independent from a very young age. Although she struggled with a learning disability in high school, Jade managed to graduate and is now attending college. She is proud of her personal growth, the coping skills she has developed, and her commitment to turning adversity into strength. In five years, Jade envisions herself buying her first home and starting a family while also becoming a life coach for foster youth after earning her degree in Child Development.

Jade has recently welcomed her first baby and is determined to be the best mom she can be for her daughter. As she navigates the journey of motherhood, she is figuring out all the essential items and accessories needed for both her comfort and her baby's. One of her goals is to find nursing covers that will make it easier for her to breastfeed in public spaces, benefiting both her and her daughter.
