Delft Mama - The Thing That Actually Helps Expat Isolation

from Dam Parenting · host Dam Parenting Podcast

Maternal mental health doesn't always look like crisis. Sometimes it looks like not having a single person to call when your baby spikes a temperature at midnight. This week, as part of our Maternal Mental Health Month, Eva speaks to Robyn from Delft Mama — a volunteer-run charity that has been quietly building community for international families in and around Delft since 2007.They talk about what belonging actually does for a mother's mental health, why showing up to that first event is the hardest and most important step, and how a group of volunteers has built something that feels like the sisters and mothers so many of us left behind.If you're in the Delft area or the surrounding areas feeling like you still haven't found your people — this one's for you.Find Delft Mama on Instagram and Facebook, or at delfmama.nl. For international parents in the Netherlands. Every Wednesday.
