Mum Walk - Where motherhood finds its stride
Welcome mumma - you belong here 👋
Mum Walk is on a mission to make early motherhood feel good again! We’re a mum-led movement to make sure #NoMumWalksAlone.
We offer free weekly social pram walks across Australia to find your people, get fit and have fun. It’s simple, same place, same time - see you there!
Over 90% of mums report feeling lonely after birth. This has to change! Which is why Mum Walk exists, to offer a new style of mums group that guarantees a chat and good company.
We’re building Australia’s leading tech-platform to find your mum friends in the real world. Because postpartum isolation isn’t just boring - its BAD for your health!
Mum Walk is more than just a walk in the park; it's a proactive approach to promoting positive maternal mental health outcomes. By fostering social connection and encouraging gentle exercise, we are directly addressing key risk factors associated with postpartum depression and anxiety.
Ready to step-in?
Whether you're craving deep connection and community or just a casual, gentle stroll in good company, Mum Walk is here for you.

local leader
We’re on a mission to offer a Mum Walk in any postcode where there’s a mum with a pram. We rely on everyday mums like you to volunteer to start a local Mum Walk. Our team will support you every step of the way.
Make a tired mum smile today and start a Mum Walk in your local area!
More than your ordinary mums groups.

“Mum Walk was a consistent presence in my calendar in the early days of motherhood. I loved that it is low pressure, free and it made sure I got fresh air that day. I’m so grateful I also met some of my closest mum friends in the area.”

Why Mum Walk?
-
Community at the centre
We want early parenthood to feel good again and that postpartum isolation is a key risk factor for mums to develop postpartum depression.. We create safe and shame-free spaces for mums to bring their true selves.
-
Feel Good Fitness
Our walks encourage gentle postpartum fitness that embraces our body’s unique needs during the postpartum season. While you may work up a light sweat, our strolls are designed to help you improve your mental and physical health with a gentle approach.

Postitive postnatal mental health
There’s so few options out there that focus on helping mums connect and feel good post-birth. Instead of baby-focusses classes, Mum Walk puts mums at the centre to promote a positive postnatal period.
