About Us
I am a Mum of two children and an angel baby boy that is watching from above.
Packages For New Mums has been established to help new Mums (pregnant or recently given birth) get themselves in the best mind-frame they can for and during the fourth trimester (aka the postpartum period). To do this, we must take care of ourselves first. The idea of commencing this business came after enduring some frustrating experiences that no Mum really has time for. This included preparing my hospital bag and not knowing what to pack – all the usual questions came to mind: what should I bring? What am I going to wear? What is baby going home in? What products do I need? Where am I going to get these products and at good prices? I embarked on a journey of research for many, many months to find products that would be beneficial to me. Having little knowledge of what adventures would be experienced when I was a ‘first-time’ Mum, the stress of not knowing, coupled with postpartum difficulties, combined together and helped me create this business venture aimed at supporting all new Mums out there.
I have gone from a corporate banker of 10 years to a baby poo entrepreneur and I love every minute of it. I am very passionate about helping new Mums through this period of their lives, especially once learning of the importance of self-care. Studies are showing that Mums who are enduring significant pain and discomfort during the postpartum stage, are more susceptible to experiencing postnatal depression – another important reason to curate packages that can help Mum manage during this time.
In doing research for the business, I found that 99% of Mums did not know about 3 or more of these well-established products and 73% did not know how they could help during their recovery. Not only did I want to create this business to take a massive load off Mum’s plate, but I also wanted to use it as a platform to provide awareness on what products are out there and how they can help. Women do not have to suffer in silence or just grin and bear it under the outdated guise of it being part of the natural process – a new mum’s recovery is worth investing in! All of the products in these packages were a part of my own recovery journey and helped me so much. It brings me great joy to be able to pass on this knowledge and experience for countless other mums too.
From hospital bag products, to the postnatal heavy period, to cracked nipples and cramping pain – we have it covered!
