Become a valued and respected volunteer to support new māmās and pēpi in your community. Volunteers are often mums and grandmothers who have experience and understanding in this important transition in life. Volunteers are scheduled in two-hour shifts and care for babies so that mums can have respite or extra support.

Here are the steps involved:

  1. Identify how you want to make a difference and if you have a spare two hours per week to do that

  2. Read the Volunteer Job Description (download below)

  3. Complete the form using the "Register Here" button below and complete the onboarding process with our admin team. 

  4. Attend our monthly intake orientation and meet our local Regional Coordinators. 

  5. Start volunteering and join in our regular catch-ups and upskilling opportunities

  6. Have FUN meeting new families and snuggling babies!  

If you have any questions or would like more information please email volunteer@mums4mums.org.nz. 

Join our team / Whakapiri Mai Ki Tō Mātou Tīma

As we grow and expand we will need to add to our team and the most common roles are Area Coordinators (AC) and Regional Coordinators (RC). In order for us to expand to new regions, we need an AC and the funding. Then in time we will add the RC roles.

Many of our ACs and RCs come from our current volunteer pool. They are committed to our kaupapa in supporting new mums/caregivers and babies in their community and we have a well-established working relationship with each other.
