Mindful Mums

Mindful Mums offers award-winning, free wellbeing groups that help pregnant women and new parents look after their mental and emotional wellbeing during pregnancy and their baby’s first year.

Since the service began in 2016, we have supported more than a thousand women in Bromley, Lewisham and Greenwich.

Mindful Mums offers an opportunity to:

  • Learn tips and techniques to manage the changes related to the life-changing and often hugely challenging period of pregnancy and the early months after childbirth.
  • Connect with other pregnant women and new parents with similar experiences.

The groups are for pregnant women and parents with babies up to 12 months old who live in the London boroughs of Bromley, Lewisham or Greenwich.

NB: As our Young Mums, Diversity Matters and LGBTQ+ Groups are Lewisham-funded initiatives, priority spaces are given to Lewisham residents. However, parents from Bromley and Greenwich are welcome to attend if space is available.
