Personalised Teacher Letter Template for Solo Mums by Choice

A simple way to support your donor-conceived child at school

Starting school — or starting a new year with a new teacher — can bring up questions, assumptions, and moments that donor-conceived children in solo mum families shouldn’t have to navigate alone.

This free, customisable Teacher Introduction Letter helps you proactively share your child’s story in a clear, respectful, and teacher-friendly way — so your child feels understood, included, and supported from day one.
