- We will continue to run both our support group and supported playgroup.
- We are actively involved in advocacy work.
- We are also looking forward to holding retreats for training and health & well-being.
- We are also focusing on providing a mentoring program where older ladies (mothers & grandmothers) can offer some time, support and company to those families who do not have any grand parents around.
- We are also focusing on running workshops that have a focus on health, wellbeing & healing. That is trying to work positively on strengthening skills in creative self-expression.
- We also provide free 1 to 1 counselling sessions during the playgroup.
- We are also looking at the possibility of assisting women who are alone or without families and partners in the role of birth coach. This is for the Sydney area (Northern & Hills districts) Pregnancy and child birth can be a time of incredible beauty, self-love, discovery and growth, however for some it is a time of despair, anxiety, stress and trauma. For those who are alone and would like to talk about having a confidential birth coach to help you through those difficult times please contact us. This will be a free service. We believe this to be important as many of the women who use our service have experienced traumatic births and anxious pregnancies, if we can help someone avoid or lessen the extent of a traumatic birth, then hopefully can help with their post-partum recovery, attachment to their baby and hopefully lessen the chance of development or duration of PND and its many symptoms.
The Babybumps community is growing. If you have any comments or issues please contact us and let us know. We appreciate feedback that enables us to further strengthen and develop
