Preparing for Solo Motherhood

Practical, emotional, and realistic preparation for birth, postpartum, and life with your baby — on your terms

As your due date approaches, things start to feel very real.

You might be excited and capable — and also aware that you’ll be doing this without a partner.
You might be focused on logistics, support, finances, and how you’ll cope once it’s just you and your baby.
You might be wondering what you actually need to prepare for — beyond what’s on the typical checklist.

Preparing for Solo Motherhood is designed to help you feel ready, supported, and grounded as you approach birth and early motherhood — without overwhelm, fear-based advice, or unrealistic expectations.

Preparation Isn’t About Doing More — It’s About Feeling Ready

Preparing for solo motherhood isn’t about ticking every box or creating a perfect plan.

It’s about knowing what actually matters, what can wait, and how to set yourself up so you’re not carrying everything alone once your baby arrives.

This course focuses on:

  • realistic preparation (not Pinterest pressure)

  • emotional readiness alongside logistics

  • building support and systems that work for your life

So you can step into birth and early motherhood feeling informed, supported, and confident in yourself.

What this course helps you do

By the end of Preparing for Solo Motherhood, you’ll feel:

  • more confident approaching birth as a solo mum

  • clearer about what to expect immediately after birth

  • better prepared for postpartum recovery and newborn care

  • supported in setting boundaries and accepting help

  • more capable of managing the mental load of solo parenting

This course doesn’t promise an easy experience.
It helps you feel ready for the real one.

Guided by lived experience - not theory

This course was created by a solo mum who has stood where you may be standing now — preparing for birth, postpartum, and life with a newborn without a partner.

I know what it’s like to approach motherhood carrying both excitement and responsibility — knowing you’ll be the constant, the decision-maker, and the emotional anchor from day one.

Beyond my own journey through pregnancy, birth, and solo motherhood, I’ve spent years supporting women as they prepare for this exact transition — helping them think through what truly matters once the baby arrives.

This course doesn’t promise certainty or perfection.
It offers clear preparation, grounded expectations, and realistic support — so you can enter this chapter feeling capable and confident in yourself.

What other women are saying:

  • “Completing this course supported me in ways I
didn’t even realise I needed. Having everything viewed through the lens of a
solo mum made me feel truly seen — especially in
a world where so much information is designed for
two-parent families. The biggest surprise was the connection. I met
incredible expectant mums in my group, and we’re
still in touch, sharing wins and supporting each
other as we move through motherhood together.”

    AMANDA
