Owner & Facilitator – Buderim & Peregian Beach

Hi, I’m Chelsea—a proud mum of two girls, a lover of all things pink and sparkly, and now the very lucky owner of Raising Mamas.

With a background in marketing and a deep passion for connection, I’ve always believed in the power of storytelling—especially the kind that happens between mothers, in quiet moments over tea, or in the shared chaos of early motherhood.

This season of life is sacred, raw, and often overwhelming. For me, finding a village of like-minded mums changed everything. It reminded me that we’re not meant to do this alone—and that there is so much strength in simply being seen.

Now, I have the privilege of leading Raising Mamas, while still facilitating at Buderim and Peregian Beach. It’s a full-circle moment I never saw coming, and one I hold with so much gratitude. I’m honoured to walk alongside you in this chapter, and I can’t wait to hear your story.

Hi, I’m Erin—a mum of two who recently moved to the Sunshine Coast with my husband to embrace the beautiful lifestyle of beaches, nature, and slow, sunny days.

After many years working as a florist, I’m following a new path that feels deeply meaningful: creating space for mums to feel supported, understood, and truly connected during the early season of motherhood.

Becoming a mother has been the most grounding and transformative experience of my life. It’s shown me the power of community and the strength that comes from sharing this journey with others. I’ve leaned on the wisdom and warmth of fellow mums through my time as a mum in Raising Mamas and I’m passionate about helping others find that same sense of belonging—where they never feel alone.

I’m always eager to connect, share stories, and grow alongside others in this beautifully complex chapter of life.

Hi, I’m Chels, a new Mum to a precious little baby girl. 

I started my journey with Raising Mamas as a new mum myself, showing up to group sleep deprived but overjoyed to be sharing a space with other Mums on the same journey. Being part of a group where I could be realistic about my motherhood journey, meet other mums, and feel an overwhelming amount of support from not only other participants but our amazing facilitator. 

Now, stepping into the facilitator role myself, feels like a pinch me moment. Im grateful that I get to return the support for mums, through own personal experiences and learnings as a first time Mum.

I’m excited to get to know each and every one of you, talk through relatable and honest experiences and help share the load of Motherhood as someone who will always show up as apart of your village!

Hi, I'm Bianca, a nature loving, baby carrier dancing, chatty, first time mama. 

Since welcoming my beautiful girl into the world, one of the biggest lifelines for me has been the supportive tribe of mothers around me. They’ve lifted me up in the sleep-deprived and emotional moments, and they’ve celebrated with me through milestones like starting solids and those first little crawls. No one truly understands the all-consuming nature of early motherhood quite like another mum walking through it too.

That’s why stepping into the facilitator role at Raising Mamas feels so meaningful to me. I’m passionate about helping other mums build their own village—the kind of support network where you can laugh, cry, and share the journey honestly, without ever feeling alone.

I’m excited to share real experiences and walk alongside you in this very precious season of life.

Hi, I’m Kate, a first time Mum to a gorgeous baby boy. I first joined Raising Mamas as a new mum myself, looking for connection and support in those early days. What I found was a group of incredible women who quickly became friends. We chat about everything and anything and celebrate each others wins and support each other through the challenges of motherhood. 

That experience showed me just how powerful it is to have a village around you in motherhood, and it inspired me to step into the facilitator role. I feel so grateful for the chance to now give back and help create that same sense of belonging for other mums.

Relief Facilitator

Hi, I’m Emily, a first-time mum to a beautiful baby girl and a Paediatric Nurse - and I’m so excited to be part of the Raising Mamas team.

I began my journey with Raising Mamas as a mum myself, showing up to group in those early newborn days when everything felt a bit chaotic. Being part of a space where I could just be real, connect with other mums, and feel supported made such a huge difference.

Now, stepping into the facilitator role feels really special. I love that I get to support other mums, not just with my nursing background, but through my own experience of navigating those early months. I’m all about creating a space where you can show up exactly as you are - whether you're full of questions or just need someone to chat with.

Motherhood can feel like a wild ride, but you don’t have to do it alone. I'm so glad you're here, and I can't wait to walk alongside you on this journey.
