Our programs are free and available to all mothers and their children, regardless of their life circumstances or social factors because we know that postnatal depression does not discriminate.  

We offer a combination of programs designed to enhance the wellbeing of mothers and positively influence early childhood development.

We provide toys and age-appropriate equipment to cater to the needs of the children and support their development. In addition, we offer a play area specifically designed for more active toddlers and pre-schoolers.

Based on lived experiences, conversations with mothers, and review of the research, we have recognised four motherhood stages in the early years (0-5 years).

We provide four programs to meet the needs identified in each stage.

Please note: the suggested age group is provided for information only, and we encourage mothers to join us no matter the age of the child if they feel the need for support or connection.

Mummy Steps: Pregnancy & New Baby Fog

This stage is dedicated to expecting and new mothers who desire to feel prepared and supported as they embark on their journey into motherhood. We understand that the transition into motherhood can be overwhelming. The Mummy Steps program is designed to provide the necessary guidance and support that new mothers need.  Suggested age group: Third Trimester of pregnancy up to 3-4 months post birth

Baby Steps: Survival Mode

This stage is dedicated to mothers who are looking for guidance and support to best protect the health and wellbeing of their babies. The Baby Steps programs offer practical advice and resources to help mothers navigate this stage with confidence. We provide access to a team of baby experts who can answer questions and provide guidance on a range of topics related to baby health and development. Suggested age group: 0-15 months

Circle of Security: Emotional Roller Coaster

This stage is dedicated to mothers who are navigating the ups and downs of parenting and are keen to learn how to manage their children’s big emotions while also maintaining their own wellbeing and confidence. We understand that it can be challenging for mothers, as they navigate their own emotions, to support their children’s emotional development. The Circle of Security Parenting Program offers practical tools to better understand the needs behind the behaviours. Suggested age group: 4 months – 5 years

Singing Hearts and Move & Connect: Balancing Act

This stage is dedicated to mothers who are striving to find balance between their mothering duties and their personal goals and aspirations. In this stage, mothers are often overwhelmed by the day-to-day responsibilities of motherhood and struggle to find moments of joy and fulfillment in their lives. The Singing Hearts and Move & Connect programs offer mothers the opportunity to find calm, to be present and to create joy with their children. Suggested age group: 0-5 years

Over the past couple of years we have made a real effort to reduce the amount of plastic we are using in our homes. We all know how important it is for our planet that we reduce plastic use, but it can be a real challenge finding products to replace the usual suspects in our homes, without compromising on quality. We are by no means perfect and like most people we still have a long way to go but we are also firm believers that doing SOMETHING is better than doing NOTHING. So we have taken small steps and started replacing some of our common household cleaning, laundry, beauty and body items with more sustainable options.

is a movement that started in 2011. It supports reducing our plastic use in our homes, workplaces and lives with a vision of a plastic free future. Their website is full of ways that you can get involved, donate (they are a registered charity) or find tips for helping your world through reducing your plastic usage. Have a look below at some of the businesses that are creating change right here in Australia by offering reusable, compostable or sustainable options for everyday household items.

There are also plenty of other ways you can reduce your plastic consumption in your home without spending any money. Or let’s face it, some plastic use is inevitable in the home unless you are really strict – just make sure you are re-using and recycling wherever you can! Have a go at some of these tips:

Join your local Buy Nothing Facebook Group

These work in a similar way to Marketplace or Buy, Swap, Sell groups but everything is gifted for FREE, with the idea that it keeps products from going to landfill and promotes re-use over buying new. You can either GIFT items in the group (great for when you are de-cluttering) or you can post a WISH for an item you need – you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how generous people are! Find your local group on

Recycle Properly!

It sounds simple however recycling properly actually takes a lot of time and effort – but it’s well worth it! Check out your local Council’s website to make sure you are properly sorting your rubbish and recycling (each Council usually has slightly different guidelines) into rubbish, recycling and green waste. We recommend setting up a cupboard with different tubs labelled clearly so the whole family knows what goes in where. Don’t forget that here in SA, you can take your 10c deposit cans, bottles and containers to the local depot and earn some money back!

Use RedCycle

Place a bag somewhere inside a cupboard or drawer to collect your soft plastics (cling wrap, plastic bags, etc) – when it is full, take it to your nearest collection point (usually your local supermarket). They are then collected to recycle the soft plastics into new products – everything from kerbs, bench seats and footpaths!

Collect Bottle Tops

As most of us know, you need to remove the lids and bottle tops from things like milk cartons and soft drink bottles before we put them into the recycling. But did you know that the bottle tops CAN also be recycled? You just need to be savvy about it! Our tip – wash out a 2 litre milk carton, let it dry then slice a slit down the side of the container. Each time you remove a bottle top, pop it through the slit. Once the bottle is full of lids the full bottle can go into your regular recycling! You can also pop plastic bread tags in as well – or have a look at our next tip!

Donate Bread Tags and Bags

Check with your local school or community centre if they are participating in a bread tag or bread bag recycling program. Many school or groups collect bread tags to send away to be repurposed as prosthetics, wheelchairs, play equipment and more! Most families go through A LOT of bread too, so why not have a chat with your school about the program?

Thereā€™s a small team of professionals ā€“ plus many dedicated volunteers ā€“ involved with the Childhood Cancer Association. But one of the key members is fluffy and friendly, but doesnā€™t speak a word. Heā€™s Elliot the dog, and heā€™s much more than the mascot. He plays a key role as a friend to children with cancer and their families.

Elliot can often be seen out and about at Childhood Cancer Association events. A soft toy Elliot is given to every child who is diagnosed with cancer and referred to the Childhood Cancer Association.

Children (and their siblings) can write letters to Elliot and these can prove to be a valuable tool. Children will quite often share their concerns with Elliot, or ask questions which they may not feel comfortable asking anyone else. ‘Elliot’ responds to all letters.

The book Elliot’s Tips for Brothers and Sisters helps give siblings some understanding about the changes in their family environment and the different emotions they may feel. It includes useful strategies to help them through the cancer experience.

Volunteers help knit Port 91¹ū¶³“«Ć½ & Crows hoodies for little Elliots. A pattern is supplied, and 100% of funds raised through the sale of Elliots and the hoodies goes to support children with cancer and their families.

During global Childhood Cancer Awareness Month in September, there are many ways you can show your support and that includes buying Elliot for a child diagnosed with cancer.
