How we started
Mum Days was started by our Chairperson and mum of 2 Melissa, as a way for local mums to make connections and build confidence going out to socialise with their babies/toddlers.
“As a mum of two (my firstborn arriving in January 2020, just before the pandemic) I am no stranger to the highs and lows of parenthood and sadly the isolation it can create. I felt I had something to offer local mums who were crying out for connection and a sense of community.” – Melissa
Mum Days main focus is to support mums who may feel isolated, anxious or lack the confidence/funds to attend baby/toddler classes or groups in Moray.
We endeavour to improve health & wellbeing, with opportunities to stay mentally healthy by providing an open, friendly & safe space to relax, connect with others, receive peer support and make connections with local agencies.
