It is so important for new mothers to have a go-to person to help them figure things out. For me, I was fortunate enough that person was my mother. I called her upwards of 10 times a day with all sorts of questions and challenging situations. It really helped me to get through the not-so-easy times. That is why I decided to become a New Parent Coach. So new parents would have someone to reach out to, someone not within their circle so that it would be safe to talk and explore their own values and solutions to the challenges of parenthood.

It took me ages to build up the courage to ask for help and get out there and find others in a similar situation. Becoming a Mummy is initially the most exciting and wonderful experience but once the excitement has died down and the visitors have gone back to normal life, being a Mummy can become lonely and frightening. The turning point for me was visiting the local children’s centre, since that day I haven’t looked back. I now have a wealth of new friends, as does Baby Bean and I couldn’t be happier
