"A mother who honours her own needs shows her children that it is safe and important to take care of theirs, too."
Helping Mums get the break they need
muMEcations was launched in January 2019 and officially became a not-for-profit organisation in March 2021. We are on a mission to provide subsidised opportunities for Mums experiencing social, health or financial hardship to attend our retreats. Our goal is to help Mums prioritise self-care to nurture and enhance their mental health and wellbeing.
We understand how difficult it can be for women to take time out for themselves and we want to make this process accessible and affordable for women by offering a range of retreats Australia-wide.
Our retreats provide a relaxing and nurturing environment where women can take time away from their caring and domestic responsibilities to connect with likeminded women and enjoy restful sleep, dining out and be pampered. We also provide education and ongoing support for attendees to assist with management of daily stress and anxiety after their retreat.
The journey through motherhood is often challenging and the impact on mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing can be overwhelming. We encourage you to commit to taking some time out for yourself and invite you to come along on your own muMEcation.
Our Why
VISION: To inspire women to achieve optimal mental health and wellbeing by prioritising self-care.
MISSION: To create unique and affordable self-care retreats for women that promote a holistic approach to health and wellbeing.
Our Values
- HEALTH & WELLBEING: We are on a mission to help improve the mental health and wellbeing of Australian women who may have lost their mojo since becoming a Mum.
- INCLUSIVITY & ACCESSIBILITY: We aim to make muMEcation getaways accessible to all women regardless of family, health or financial status, disability, age or gender expression.
- COMMUNITY & CONNECTION: We love to connect likeminded and supportive women to share their experiences of motherhood and form meaningful relationships.
- RESPECT & INTEGRITY: We respect and honour the time and money that you invest with us because we understand how difficult it is to prioritise yourself without the Mum-guilt.
- COLLABORATION & PARTNERSHIPS: We are passionate about supporting women in business by creating mutually beneficial partnerships that enhance the experience for our guests.
