Find your people. Nigerian mums in NJ and NYC, together.

A private, women-only community where you get real answers from real mums, with no ads and no spam.

Free to join. Women only. Your details are never shared or sold.

Why this exists

Ever asked a simple question in a big WhatsApp group and watched it vanish under 80 messages? We built the group we wished we had.

What you get

  • A call before you join

    A Mum Lead speaks to every mum and confirms she is a woman before she is added. Nobody joins unseen.

  • A real answer within 24 hours

    If nobody knows, a Mum Lead will go and find you one.

  • Sunday Mum Chat

    Every Sunday, hosted by our Mum Leads, where mums share real experiences.

  • Ask anonymously

    Send a question to a Mum Lead and we will post it without your name.

    Ask a question
  • Mum Match

    Within 48 hours, we introduce you to one mum near you with kids the same age.

  • The New Mum Starter List

    Trusted pediatricians, daycares, schools and braiders recommended by mums.

  • A calm feed

    No ads, no links, no forwarded messages, no devotionals.

  • Meet in person

    Monthly meetups for mums and kids, plus our December party for parents and kids.

  • Founding Mum status

    For our earliest members: priority RSVP and a vote on our first meetup theme.

How it works

  1. Tell us about you and your family

    Two minutes, three short screens. Nothing about your children's names, schools or photos.

  2. A Mum Lead adds you and welcomes you

    A real person, not a bot, adds you to the group on WhatsApp and says hello.

  3. Get introduced to a mum near you

    Same area, kids a similar age, something in common. Only if you ask for it.

The mums who run it

Our Mum Leads answer questions, make introductions and welcome every new mum. They keep the group kind, safe and useful.

Our promise

The short version. You can read the full group rules any time.

  • Women only. This group is for mums.
  • Verified before joining. A Mum Lead calls you and confirms you are a woman before you are added.
  • Kind and respectful. No judgement and no pile-ons.
  • No selling or promoting, in the group or by DM.
  • No links or videos.
  • No devotionals.
  • Children's privacy protected: never any names, schools, addresses or photos of children.
  • What's shared here stays here. No screenshots, no sharing outside the group.

We're new, we're small, and we're strict. That's why it works.
