Amber Kroeker

Amber Kroeker is the child injury prevention program coordinator at Randall Children's Hospital in Portland, Oregon, and a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST). With a Master's in Public Health and extensive experience as a health educator, she's a leading voice in the infant safety community, with a research focus on the behavioral and public health side of injury prevention, especially why parents make the safety choices they do. Amber's path to this work is personal: she became a single mom at 18 and later earned her CPST certification while eight months pregnant, experiences that taught her firsthand how hard it can be to balance a child's needs with real-world constraints. Now a proud mom of three boys, she draws on that journey to fuel her mission of making the world safer and more supportive for babies and families everywhere.
