ANAM MOTHERHOOD CIRCLES
A gentle space for mothers to connect, reflect and be witnessed.
When a baby is born, a mother is born too.
Yet whilst we celebrate and support the baby, the mother's own transformation often goes unseen.
The Anam Mother & Baby Circle is a space created especially for mothers with babies under one. Inspired by the concept of matrescence, the profound transition into motherhood, these gatherings offer an opportunity to pause, reflect, connect and explore who you are becoming.
Together we'll gather over tea, gentle conversation, reflective writing prompts and shared stories.
There is no pressure to share.
No expectation to have everything figured out.
No parenting advice or expert-led instruction.
Just a welcoming space to connect with other mothers and yourself.

About Your Host
Hi, I'm Áine.
I am mother of three children who are now navigating their teenage years, photographer, and someone who has spent much of her career supporting children, young people and families.
Over the years I've worked in Counselling,, youth work, parenting programmes, foster care services, advocacy and community-based projects, supporting families through many different stages of life.
Alongside my professional experience, I've also lived through the joys, challenges and transformations of motherhood myself. I know how easy it can be to lose sight of your own needs whilst caring for everyone else.
The idea for the Anam Mother & Baby Circle grew from a simple thought: I wish a space like this had existed when my children were small.
Whilst this is not a therapy or counselling group, it is a warm, welcoming space where mothers can pause, reflect, connect with others and explore the experience of becoming a mother in the company of women who understand.
I'm looking forward to welcoming you and your baby.
