Meet Bailey

Founded by Certified Child Life Specialist Bailey Kiger, MS, CCLS, The Healing Village for Grief and Growth serves the central Illinois community in two ways:

  • 1:1 Sessions for children, teens, and parents navigating crisis and grief, and

  • Workshops, private training, and consultative crisis support to frontline educators and community members that work with children.

Bailey’s experience spans a wide range of family-centered roles, including hospitals, children’s advocacy centers, and 911 dispatch. This diverse background has equipped her with the expertise to provide compassionate, developmentally-appropriate, and evidence-based support to the most vulnerable populations.
