🌿 This is your reminder: you don’t have to do it alone.
Motherhood can be beautiful—but it can also feel overwhelming, messy, and lonely at times. Whether you’re pregnant, adjusting to life with a newborn, or deep in toddler chaos, your wellbeing matters too.

We’re so grateful to welcome Naomi Edison, a counsellor and experienced midwife, to The Mother Hub. She offers warm, trauma-informed support for mothers in all stages of the perinatal journey.

✨ No referral needed
✨ $128/hour
✨ Midwife + Counsellor = support that truly understands

If you’ve been meaning to reach out for help, this is your gentle sign.

Sometimes the latch is perfect.
Sometimes it’s... a bit more like a goldfish trying to eat a marshmallow. 🐠😅

Breastfeeding is beautiful — and also awkward, tricky, and full of trial-and-error. If you're finding the latch elusive (or just need a cheer squad), our lactation consultants are here to help.

No judgment. No pressure. Just practical support and warm cups of tea 💛

You've got this, and we’ve got you.

💬 A note to our community...
As many of you know, our wonderful clinical psychologist Dr. Liz is currently recovering after a serious accident. While she’s doing well and plans a gradual return in the coming weeks, we know that some of her clients need support now.

We’re so glad to introduce Naomi Edison, a qualified perinatal counsellor and midwife, who is now available for 1:1 sessions at The Mother Hub. Naomi is warm, wise, and experienced in walking with women through the messy, beautiful, and often complex season of motherhood.

Naomi is here for you — whether you're one of Dr. Liz’s current clients looking for continuity of care or simply in need of someone to talk to.

✨ $128/hour
✨ No referral needed
✨ Choose Naomi for a few sessions or ongoing care

Please know that you are not alone, and we’re always here to help you find the right support at the right time.

💛 With care,
The Mother Hub Team

As the days are slow and the chill lingers, we're here to remind you that you don’t have to do this season alone.

Pop in. Breathe out. You’re held here 🤍

It’s winter — and with it comes the usual run of lurgies, sniffles, and a little resurgence of COVID. 😷
Here at The Mother Hub, we care for some of the tiniest and most vulnerable little humans — and we’re asking for your help to keep them safe.

If you or your family are feeling unwell:
✨ Please wear a mask if you have any respiratory symptoms
✨ Test for flu or COVID before visiting
✨ Practise good hand hygiene
✨ And if you're unsure — stay home, rest and recover 💐

Thank you for being part of a village that truly cares 💜

🌙 Late Night Notes
To the mum who’s up again — feeding, rocking, soothing, wondering.
You’re not forgotten in these quiet hours.
These moments might feel heavy, but they are lined with gold.
You’re doing sacred work.
You’re doing enough.
And you’re not alone. 💜

Motherhood isn’t one-size-fits-all — it’s wild, wonderful, overwhelming, and sacred.
We’re holding space for:
✨ The new mums
✨ The grieving mums
✨ The trying-to-be mums
✨ The mums doing it solo
✨ The mums rediscovering themselves

You're not alone. You’re part of The Mother Hub. 💛
