For the woman behind the mum

Becoming a mum changes everything. Your time, your thoughts, your routines and often, quietly, your sense of yourself. Somewhere between school runs, shopping lists, work, messages, appointments and remembering everyone else’s needs first, it can start to feel like you’ve disappeared a little.

North London Mums isn’t here to tell you how to raise your children. There are already plenty of places for that. This space is for you.

For the tired days when you feel stretched too thin.
For the moments of guilt when you sit down and do nothing.
For the pressure to cope with everything and still look like you’re coping easily.

Here we talk about real life. Confidence, overwhelm, identity, relationships, work, expectations and the mental load that no one really explains before motherhood begins.

You’re not failing. You’re carrying a lot.

This site exists to remind you that you are still a person as well as a parent, and that strength doesn’t mean doing everything perfectly. Sometimes it just means continuing, adapting, and slowly finding pieces of yourself again.

Take a breath. You’re in the right place.
