Come for a relaxed but facilitated space each week to reflect upon and share how you’re doing, connect with local mums and have meaningful conversations about motherhood.

Mondays sessions are pay per session, open to mums with babies of any age up to toddlers, and there is a WhatsApp group to keep in touch! Each session will start with introductions, then either I will lead a talk or discussion around matrescence and all the transitions we go through as we become mothers, or a local guest, e.g. a sling consultant, will lead an activity or talk. This will be followed by much needed time to chat with other mums - as motherhood is an incredible but often challenging journey, one which you don’t have to walk alone!

Tuesdays circles are done in blocks of usually 6 weeks to help create meaningful connections and a safe space to support you through the earlier months of motherhood (pre-crawling babies). Each group has its own WhatsApp group to keep in touch, and there is a mix of first-time mums and those with older children in each group.

Each week there is time for each mum to reflect on and share how her week has been, as well as discussing a different aspect of motherhood from birth stories, the mental load, changing dynamics with partners, hellish sleep deprivation, boredom, loneliness and missing paid work, alongside the awe of creating another human, the love and the joy at first smiles.

Run by Hannah - Mother circle leader and Mama Rising Matrescence coach

At The Station there is plenty of space for prams next to our area, and space for a few next to seats for any sleeping babies.
Each mums will have space to sit down as well as there being mats in the middle for the babies.
Please try not to worry too much about whether your baby will be unsettled as this is normal, and you are welcome exactly as you are!
