Our Programs
Up & About Mothers' Group | KINGSTON
Update 1.4.22 - we were all so keen but with the current health situation we all want to keep everyone safe. Therefore we have paused our group. However, there will be monthly, informal get togethers facilitated by Lisa (Counsellor & Group Facilitator). Reach out to see when the next one is on.

Why enjoyment is important
Doing something that you enjoy, known as being in flow, is linked to positive emotions & happiness. It has been discovered that mothers need a sense of belonging and connectedness.
Why empowerment is important
We need each other! Motherhood is identified as a major life transition where identity loss rank high on major stresses. Reminding each other of our strengths & abilities helps our families thrive.
Why education is important
Being open to new information, having opportunities to share our knowledge keeps our minds active and expands our worldview.
Why exercise is important
Australian research has shown positive influence of even a single bout of exercise improves executive function and mood and decreases stress levels.
