Perinatal and New Mother Support Groups
Motherhood is a joyful time, but at times it can also bring on feelings of fear, anxiety, and isolation. Connect with other pregnant and new mothers and find support in this safe space. We provide free virtual support groups for those who reside in: Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Morris, Passaic, Sussex, Union, and Warren.
Our support groups provide a place for mothers to share and connect. Read the quotes below from support group participants:
“The group has allowed me to be vocal about my struggles as a first-time mom. I was previously suffering in silence.”
“Whenever I think I am not doing my best as a first-time mother, the Circle of Hope reassures me that I’m doing great and the best I can.”
“This group has been an invaluable space where I can freely express my thoughts and experiences as a new parent without fear of judgment. One of the highlights is the opportunity to connect virtually with other moms, fostering open discussions about the challenges and joys of being a new mom. The camaraderie within the group creates a supportive environment where I’ve received not only empathy but also practical advice from fellow moms who understand the journey.”
