This one is for all the dads 🌟

Big love this Father’s Day.

Your role in the lives of your family is such a significant one and we want you to feel supported in all the ways, too.

Through becoming a dad. Through the adjustment and identity shift. Through changes in your relationship. Through looking after your own mental and physical wellbeing. And through working out how best to support the people you love while also looking after yourself.

There are some incredible services out there supporting dads - from mental health and counselling, relationship support and dads groups, to fitness, education, connection and practical resources.

We’ve created a whole new category in our directory that is bringing together many of these services to ensure they are visible to the families who will benefit.

Because dads deserve their village too and everyone benefits from well adjusted and fully supported fathers.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, father figures and those doing the work of showing up, loving and supporting their families. 💛

Becoming parents changes so much more than just your sleep.

It changes your relationship.
It changes your confidence.
It changes your identity.

And while we spend months preparing for birth and buying all the things for baby, very few of us are prepared for what happens to us.
If you’re expecting a baby, navigating those early months, or know someone who is, this is a conversation worth making time for.

We’ve brought together three incredible organisations:
Jason | Raising Fathers
Bree Baxter
Dadfit

To explore:
🤍 What really happens when a man becomes a father and why dads need support too.
🤍 How couples can stay connected through one of the biggest transitions of their lives.
🤍 Why finding community and support isn’t a luxury, it’s one of the best things you can do for your family.

This isn’t about being the “perfect” parent.
It’s about understanding each other a little better, feeling less alone, and knowing where to turn when things feel hard.
Because when parents are supported, families thrive.

✨ We’ve made this webinar completely free because we believe every family deserves access to these conversations, without cost being a barrier.

So however you like to learn, watch it together on the couch, listen while you’re out walking, or pop it on during a late-night feed. Come back to it whenever you need.

🎥 Watch “Becoming Parents Together: The Conversations, Confidence and Connection Every Couple Needs” via the link in our bio.

Tag an expectant parent, new mum or dad who needs to see this. 🤍

A note on inclusivity: This conversation focuses on mothers and fathers because of the topic being discussed & the speakers areas of expertise. We recognise that families are formed in many different ways, and we want all parents and families to feel seen, welcomed and supported across our resources and services.

You shouldn’t have to Google your way through pregnancy and postpartum trying to work out who can actually help.

That’s why we do the searching for you.
We find incredible services supporting women and their families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum and beyond and we bring them together in one easy-to-navigate place.

From feeding support and pelvic health to mental health, meal delivery, birth education, sleep, recovery, community, support for dads and partners, and so much more.

One place. Australia-wide. Free to access.
Because sometimes you don’t even know what support exists until you need it, and we want to make sure it’s easy to find when you do.

Save us for later, share us with a mum who needs to know we’re here, or head to the link in bio to explore the directory.

One of the biggest myths about postpartum is that support will simply be there when you need it.

Truth: Most people genuinely want to help.
They just don’t know how.
They don’t know when to visit, what would actually be useful, whether to bring a meal or fold the washing, whether to hold the baby or give you space. Partners often want to do everything they can too, but they’re navigating it all for the very first time as well.

Without a plan, even the most loving village can feel uncertain.

That’s why we love what Melissa Miceli has created.

Rather than waiting until you’re exhausted and trying to coordinate everything while recovering from birth, Motherscape helps you prepare before your baby arrives.

Combining Occupational Therapy and Doula expertise, they work with you to create a personalised postpartum plan that considers your recovery, your home, your partner, your support network and the practical realities of those first weeks.
Because when everyone understands how to support you, everyone feels more confident.
✨ Mum can focus on healing.
✨ Partners know how to step in.
✨ Family and friends know how to help in meaningful ways.
✨ Your village becomes something you can lean on, not something you have to organise.

If you’re expecting a baby, this is one of those ideas that’s worth exploring before life becomes beautifully busy.

Head to our Support Directory (link in bio) to discover the Motherscape Experience and learn how they can help you build the strongest possible foundations for a supported postpartum.

Motherhood doesn’t reduce capability. It changes availability.

We sat down with Katherine, founder of Mum Economy and former clinical embryologist who was made redundant while on maternity leave.

This isn’t a story about work-life balance. It’s about a structural problem that sidelines capable women not because of what they can do, but because of when they’re available to do it.

Mum Economy is Katherine’s answer: a free platform connecting Australian mothers with flexible, local work and connecting businesses and households with some of the most skilled, capable and motivated people in the room.

Whether you’re a mum figuring out how to re-enter the workforce on your own terms, or a business that wants to start hiring for capability, this one is worth your time.

Not Another Onesie | A village of support for modern motherhood Favorite kinds of support ❤️

Navigating pregnancy can feel overwhelming.

The early weeks with a newborn can feel isolating and be challenging emotionally socially and mentally.

And when your baby won’t settle, it can feel like you’re the only one awake.

You were never meant to figure it all out alone, support is crucial.

That’s why we love these beautifully designed support packages from Maternal Infant Wellbeing Melbourne (MIWM) MIWM-WOMEN'S, KIDS & INFANT CLINIC _ DR AMBER HART They bring together expert care for every stage of the journey, whether you’re preparing for birth, recovering in postpartum or navigating life with an unsettled baby.

✨ Our three favourites:
• The Pregnancy Wellbeing Package
• The Platinum Pregnancy Package (with support that continues into postpartum)
• The Soothe Package for unsettled babies and exhausted parents

What we love most is that these aren’t just appointments. They’re coordinated, evidence-based support designed to help mothers feel genuinely and deeply cared for.

đź’› Even better? Medicare rebates apply to many services, making this level of support more accessible than many families realise.

And here’s an idea we wish more people considered…
Instead of another baby outfit, imagine a group of friends, family or colleagues gifting support that could profoundly change a mother’s experience.

Explore all the details in The Motherhood Store under the Support category.

Have you ever been given support instead of “stuff”? We’d love to hear what made the biggest difference for you. 👇

There is nothing wrong with feeling scared about birth.
For many women, fear starts to build as the due date gets closer.
Fear of the unknown. Fear of pain. Fear that something won’t go to plan. Fear of not coping. Those feelings are really common.

The encouraging news is that fear doesn’t have to stay in the driver’s seat. One of the most effective ways to reduce fear is through knowledge, preparation and having the right support around you.

In the latest article, Joelene Murdoch from Born Ready explores:

✨ Why fear of birth is so common
✨ What actually helps reduce birth anxiety
✨ How birth education can build confidence
✨ Practical ways to prepare emotionally and mentally for labour

One of the biggest challenges of becoming a parent is often the feeling of doing it without a village and the loneliness that can creep in.

The good news? There are incredible communities supporting parents all over Australia. The hard part is knowing they exist.
A local mums’ group.
A pram walking group.
A playgroup.
A breastfeeding support group.
A dads’ group.
A mums and bubs yoga.
A babywearing community.
A multiple births group.
A NICU or loss support group.
A culturally specific community.
An LGBTQ+ parent network.
An online community.
A regional parents’ group.
A council or not-for-profit program.
Or simply a welcoming space where parents can connect with others who understand.

These communities can reduce loneliness, build confidence, create lifelong friendships and remind parents they were never meant to do this alone.

That’s why we’re growing our Community Directory at Not Another Onesie, to make it easier for every family, no matter where they live in Australia, to find their village.

Can you help us?

👇 Parents: Tell us where you found your people, or tag a community that made a difference to your journey.

👇 Community leaders: If you run a group, program or community that supports parents across Australia in any way, we’d love to chat with you so we can help connect you with more families who need you!

Every tag. Every share. Every listing helps another parent find the support they might not even know they’re looking for.

Visit notanotheronesie.com.au to explore the Community Directory ( link in bio) or get in touch directly - we’d love to chat with you!! ❤️
