Where Melanataed Mamas Build Sisterhood through Self-Care
Community
Our monthly virtual support groups offer a safe space where you can build community and connect with other melanated mamas through shared experiences. Register for one of our support groups to gain support during your pregnancy and postpartum journey.
Healing Habits
Our fitness classes are designed to cultivate healing habits for pregnant and postpartum mothers, fostering both physical and emotional well-being. Through guided movements and breath work, participants learn to manage stress and enhance their mental health. Together, we create a holistic approach to healing, emphasizing the importance of movement, community, and self-compassion.
Connection
Fostering community connection is at the heart of our programs, significantly reducing feelings of isolation for pregnant and postpartum mothers. Through group classes and social events, participants build relationships with others who understand the unique journey of motherhood.
Who We Are
Created in 2023, Sawubona Sisterhood is a nonprofit organization committed to building the supportive and empowering community that every melanated mama needs. In addition to holding support groups, sharing healing habits, and fostering relationships with medical professionals and birthing specialists all over the country, we create a safe space where black women can feel seen and heard as they share in the joys and challenges of new motherhood.
Our mission is to ensure that every black mother, regardless of income, age, or profession, has access to the healthy, happy pregnancy and birthing experience that she deserves.
