We are THE free and independent peer support group for mums and mumpreneurs based in London. We support each other through the joys and challenges we face with raising our children (no matter how young or old they are) in such an exciting and sometimes isolating metropole.
In addition to sharing views and tips online, we believe strongly in face-to-face interaction. E-mails, newsletters, and websites are fine, but there are times when you just want to get out, get some fresh air, and meet up with other adults.

We understand that – we feel that way too. We organise a number of activities for mums (and dads) and babies, school children and even teenagers – including meet-ups, tweet-ups, workshops, conferences, trips to view exhibitions at the National Gallery, movies at the local cinema, nature walks and great parties.

New mums have plenty of adjustments to make, and for the most part it's easy to prepare for the major ones. Basically, the idea is simple: life will revolve around a new child for quite some time, and mums and dads have to adjust accordingly! However, there are some smaller adjustments that are difficult to see coming even in all of the extensive preparation of getting ready for a new child. Read More »

Hello Summer

I might have slightly miscalculated when I applied the hair dye inbetween putting dinner in the oven and eating it. And I certainly hadn't counted on my other half actually getting home in time to eat with me. What a picture, plastic bag wrapped around my carefully applied home dye, muffin tops on full display (I had thoughtfully removed my top to prevent accidents). Delightful. And thus we welcome in summer. Read More »
