Our MAMAhub community groups are a space where mamas & babes can connect, share a hot meal, and enjoy activities.

  • MAMAhub volunteers offer practical support at our community drop-in. They set up, prep meals, help with activities, and are welcoming, friendly faces for our Mamas & their babes. ​​​​​​​​

    Our drop-ins take place on Wednesday, from 10am -12pm, and Friday, from 11am - 2pm. Volunteers are expected to stay 15 mins before and after each session, to help with setting up and packing down. We require volunteers to commit to attending a minimum of 2 MAMAhub sessions per month.

  • We ask that all our MAMAhub volunteers:

    • Have a non-judgemental approach to providing support to women from diverse backgrounds;

    • Are committed to social justice and supporting Mamas to have a positive pregnancy and early parenting experience;

    • Be willing to undertake an enhanced DBS check.

vOLUNTEERING as a mother companion

A woman and a baby lying on a couch, facing each other. The woman holds the baby's hands and gently touches the baby's face. The baby is dressed in a pink hat and a white outfit, wrapped in a white blanket, looking at the woman with big eyes.

Mother Companions offer emotional and practical support to migrant mamas, from their last trimester of pregnancy until their babe is 8 weeks old. Our trained volunteers are also on call to act as a trusted birth partner for women who would otherwise give birth alone.

Project MAMA recruits and trains new cohorts of volunteers every 6-12 months.

We are not currently open for applications.

If you’re interested in joining our Mother Companion team, please follow our socials to find out when our next training will be.

  • “It should be a non-negotiable for those giving birth to feel seen, heard, validated and respected, it has the potential to dramatically alter their experience as they bring a new life into the world. I feel enormously privileged to have been invited to walk this path with this incredible mama, who taught me so much about being strong and resilient. “ - Volunteer Mother Companion

  • “This really restores my faith in humanity”

  • ​​​​​​​​"If you can support any mama to feel in their power, listened to and that they are treated compassionately, if you can safeguard those simple things, then that sets them up with some really good foundations for this journey into motherhood. It can be really that simple.” - Mother Companion volunteer
