How did I become “The Baby Expert”?
As a perinatal trainer, I feed my passion for babies with many families. In order to reach even more parents, in 2013 I launched my own company: mariefortier.com.
After 30 years of service as a clinician nurse in perinatal care, I retired from the public health network and no longer renewed my permit from the Ordre des Infirmières et Infirmiers du Québec since September 2016. I am now fully devoted to sending you updated, useful and in-depth information that will help you prepare for your role as parents. I also work with health professionals, developing programs and educational tools on the topic of caring for babies, as well as developing prenatal classes.
I also host, since Spring 2017 to recently, a radio show on Monday mornings on Rouge FM Estrie.
