You don't have to do this alone: MamaSocial, mum friendship and maternal mental health in the Netherlands

You don't have to do this alone: MamaSocial, mum friendship and maternal mental health in the Netherlands

We close Maternal Mental Health Month with something the research says matters just as much as therapy: community. Rachael Forester — therapist and new lead of MamaSocial — joins Dam Parenting to talk about why mum friends aren't optional. The science of co-regulation. Why female friendship in early motherhood is neurologically unique. And what MamaSocial — the community space for international mothers across the Netherlands — actually looks like to walk into for the first time.

If you've moved to the Netherlands, newly pregnant or just looking to fine more mom frirneds and you're doing this without your village yet — this one is for you.

MamaSocial runs events in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Haarlem and more.
