Project CHIP is made possible by three passionate women who believe in the healing power of rest and nutrition in the precious days and weeks after giving birth. Jen Darwin is founder of The Village which is a post natal retreat center offering the opportunity to go directly from the hospital to a retreat center where you can continue your recovery with world class care. Heng Ou is author of "The First Forty Days" which has since been called the postpartum Bible and has initiated a cultural shift here in the West to begin adopting Chinese customs of care in a woman's first 40 days postpartum. Liz Hilton is the founder of swaddelini, a sleep sack helping babies to sleep better. She invented this product while struggling with postpartum emotional distress with her first and after discovering Heng Ou's book, was able to prepare for a better postpartum experience with her fourth child.
