Mama Matters

Mama Matters is a free community group for our Moms of the Midlands run by myself, Amanda Low (Founder of Moms of the Midlands) and Mel Manley (Sleep Well by Mel).

We host a casual ‘Walk & Talk’ on an ad hoc basis during the week as well as a meet-up on the first Saturday of every month at La Popote Café. We do a walk around The Knoll Historic Guest Farm starting at 08:00am followed by a talk from 09:00 – 10:00am. Every Saturday, a guest speaker is invited to join us to discuss key topics relating to motherhood. Our meet-ups are FREE, you only have to pay for whatever you want at the café and if you are not up to walking, you’re welcome to just join us for the talk.

Our Mama Matters group is open to ALL Moms. Everyone who’s anyone is welcome to join us. It’s a time for you, Mama, to connect with other moms, to enjoy some low intensity exercise, have a coffee, and chat about things that matter to you. Because Mama, YOU matter!

If you are interested in joining us, please join our Mama Matters Whatsapp group. Please also feel free to share with any other Moms who you think might like to join 💜

Engaging presentations and workshops that focus on various aspects of child development, such as sensory processing, ADHD, and early intervention strategies. Designed for parents, educators, and caregivers, these talks provide valuable insights grounded in the latest research, empowering participants to support children effectively.

Therapy:
Our therapy services include occupational therapy, speech therapy, and play therapy, all provided by therapists with specialised postgraduate training. By combining our extensive expertise and utilising evidence-based practices, we have developed a unique approach to intervention that has proven highly effective in supporting children and their families. Our targeted interventions are designed to address each child’s specific needs, optimising developmental outcomes and enhancing overall well-being. Early intervention remains a core focus, ensuring that children receive critical support during their most formative years.

Parent Mentoring:

A curated selection of tools designed to assist children with sensory processing needs, including sensory swings, compression sheets (Sensory Snuggles), weighted lap pads, and fidget kits. These products are chosen based on their proven effectiveness in helping children manage sensory input, reduce anxiety, and improve focus and self-regulation.
