The first planning firm dedicated to people without kids

Life without kids is different.
- Folks have a lot of opinions about childfree people. But most don’t understand what life without kids is like — and that includes financial planners.
- Traditional financial planners follow a predictable life script. But the movie is so much better when you write it yourself.
- Constantly building wealth and white picket fences isn’t for everybody. When you’re childfree, anything is possible!
Things are about to get exciting… It’s time to give your life the starring role, and make money your supporting cast.
Do what you love
Pursue passion projects. Make work optional. Travel or live abroad. It’s your life!
Make an impact
Leave your mark on the world — without a genetic legacy.
Plan for future care
Your amazing childfree life starts here.
Every client relationship starts with our Childfree Wealth® Checkup, a 60-minute deep dive that’s equal parts vision board and spreadsheet. Of course, you and your Childfree Wealth Specialist® will get into the dollars and cents of your financial landscape.
But you’ll also walk away with a permission slip to make unconventional choices — because when you’re childfree, you can do that.
The Childfree Wealth® Checkup will help you envision your dream life while looking at your finances through a childfree lens. With a clear view of what’s possible, you can create a plan to make the childfree life you’re building even better.
Let’s make a plan.
We don’t just understand what it means to be childfree: We’ll work to understand what it means for you, so we can give you the best–possible advice. We take a multifaceted approach to financial, life, and estate planning, including:
- Life planning
- Cash-flow planning
- Investing
- Taxes
- Retirement
- Long-term care
- Estate planning
- Charitable giving
- Insurance planning
- Elder care planning
Your individual financial roadmap will be as unique as you and the plans you’re making.

As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® who’s also childfree, I’ve seen how the financial landscape works for people without kids — from both sides.
I started Childfree Wealth® because millions of us may be getting bad financial advice from traditional planners who don’t understand the unique circumstances and needs of non-parents. We work with childfree and permanently childless people like you to create simple financial plans that fuel their amazing (and sometimes unconventional) lives.

Why do I need an advisor?
You may or may not need an advisor. There are many things you can do on your own. The problem with doing things on your own is that you may miss things or not understand how one decision impacts another. For example, you can follow a simple investing strategy, but tax planning can be very complex. It is also possible to make a financial plan that works but misses your life goals. Working with a Childfree Wealth Specialist® can help you plan for both your life and finances, with the goal being to simplify your finances so that you can live an amazing life!
I have an advisor, why should I speak with you?
If you are happy with your advisor, that’s great! The key is to ask them how your plan is different because you are Childfree. If they say it isn’t different, or that you might change your mind, you may need to change your advisor. If they are charging you a percentage of your assets, they may also have a conflict of interest, especially if you don’t have a goal of passing on millions to the next generation. Our Childfree Wealth Specialists® are experts in Childfree life and finances, can your advisor say the same?
