New Mothers’ Support Services
Connect newcomer mothers to local services and resources
Program Highlights:
Are you a newcomer new mother? Our New Mothers’ Support Services serve to connect newcomer mothers to local services and resources, provide meaningful networking opportunities, and support you in your post-partum journey.
Services:
The following services are being offered as part of the YWCA’s Newcomer Workshops and Networking New Mothers’ Support initiative. We are pleased to offer:
- Our new volunteer assistance program available for newcomer new mothers in Hamilton and the surrounding area with infants 0-12 months of age and who may be feeling overwhelmed or at risk of postpartum depression
- Providing weekly virtual (and eventually in-home) volunteer visits from a trained volunteer, for up to 6 months
- Offering practical support and social interaction
- Support is currently being offered virtually due to the pandemic.
Enhanced Supports
We assist our clients with free transportation, childminding, translation and interpretation services to make our programming accessible.
