The Village because it takes a village to raise a child

Hi everyone!

I'm so excited to share a project that has been a dream of mine for a while: The Village. New mums, this is for you! We all know it takes a village to raise a child, and that's exactly what this project is about: supporting new mums with a nourishing breakfast and a small gift to help them feel cared for in those early days.

As a mum of two boys, I know how overwhelming the postpartum period can be. I truly believe that a nourishing meal, a little support, and a reminder that you matter too can make a big difference. Bringing a new life into the world is one of the greatest gifts, and every mother should feel valued and special while doing it.

I'll also be creating a dedicated gift for women who have experienced pregnancy loss. This can be such a lonely and painful time, and so many women feel like they're going through it on their own. My hope is to remind them that they are not alone.

If you've just had a baby, know someone who is expecting, or if you or someone close to you has experienced a loss, please feel free to reach out to me in confidence (or fill out a link above).

I would be so grateful if you joined me in this project. If you work in women's wellness or beauty, whether that's manicures, massages, exercise, skincare or something similar, and would like to donate a gift card to include in the packages, it would mean so much. You can also sponsor a gift directly.

Together, we can help mums feel supported and cared for when it matters most. 💛
