HELLO, 

WE ARE BUMP AND BEYOND

Bump and Beyond is a boutique support service offering privately run mothers groups and birthing education in Adelaide. We aim to support, educate and connect women through the highs and lows of new-motherhood.

During pregnancy and parenthood we are often inundated with advice from well-meaning friends and family.
The anticipation, excitement and fears that come with this new territory can leave new parents feeling overwhelmed, isolated and unsure. Our expectations can become skewed by our social media feeds and perhaps even the rose-coloured memories shared by our own parents. It can be hard to find a forum where you can speak openly and honestly, feel connected and understood.


That’s where we can help.

 

At Bump and Beyond we provide a carefully curated, expertly facilitated program to help women navigate the transition into motherhood. We offer a warm and welcoming environment where friendship, information and support are on hand when you need it most. We invite you to join us as we learn, laugh, cry and journey through motherhood, together.

More About Bump & Beyond

Our goal is to support, to educate and to have fun.
We help you expand your support network by offering opportunities to explore, discuss and reflect upon your own experiences. We connect you with a qualified midwife as well as numerous local experts who bring with them a wealth of experience and knowledge in pre/postnatal care and infant and childhood care/development. We encourage you to have fun and connect with other mums and babies in a safe, non-judgemental environment.

TO SUPPORT

To provide a place to feel heard and understood, a place to listen, a place to heal, a place to be supported and a place to find comfort by hearing and connecting with the stories of your fellow members. 

Group-based education and support is a fundamental aspect to surviving and thriving in early motherhood. Open and honest peer group sharing and connection helps support you by normalising feelings and experiences. Group support helps to minimise feelings of isolation and alienation as you are surrounded by a group of people who are feeling and experiencing many of the same struggles, challenges, and joys at the same time as you.

TO EDUCATE

We believe education is key. Research shows that prior knowledge and awareness of possible options, challenges, changes, risks, or problems in life gives new parents a distinct advantage and ability to prepare mentally emotionally and physically for what lies ahead. 
 
Whether it be pregnancy or parenting, Bump and Beyond will provide you with non-biased information. Our guest speakers talk on topics ranging from sleep, nutrition, birthing options, mindfulness, and child development which will help you to fully grasp that there is no 'right way' to do THIS, but give you plenty of solid information to help navigate this new world. By connecting you personally to local services you will hopefully feel comfortable calling upon them again throughout your pregnancy, birth, and life with a newborn.

TO HAVE FUN

When your life revolves around one thing, it can be hard to find the energy and brain power to talk about anything but your growing bump or your new baby. This can make things a little different when talking with your friends and family who aren't in that same head space. Thankfully at Bump and Beyond we are here to embrace this. We are here to talk about all things baby related and have a damn good time doing so. We look forward to a few nibbles and a chat every session. We will discus/ support all the challenges and struggles but also find plenty of time to laugh about those 'funny' things that pregnancy and a new baby bring to our lives; stories of terrible food cravings, crazy mood swings, boob leakage, poo explosions, projectile vomiting, thoughts of killing our snoring husbands in their sleep, peezing (sneeze and pee moments) and fall asleep on the toilet type of days.

Through these priorities BUMP AND BEYOND aims to empower you to embrace your new life, expand your knowledge and enjoy this journey with new friends.
