Who we are

Beacon was built by Amanda and Keagan, two parents in Indiana. When Amanda went searching for support during her own postpartum season, she couldn't find anything that met her in the 3 a.m. moments — so they built it themselves. Read Amanda's story.

Our editorial standards

Postpartum health deserves care. Every Beacon article that covers symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, medication, or safety is reviewed by a licensed clinician before it is published, and shows the date it was last reviewed. We cite reputable sources such as ACOG, the National Institute of Mental Health, and Postpartum Support International.

Beacon offers peer support and general information. It is not a substitute for professional medical care. If you are in crisis, call or text 988, or call or text the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-852-6262.
