Come along! Sing and have a cuppa and chat with fellow Mamas in our pop-up singing sessions!

Welcome!

We know it can feel a bit daunting to turn up to a group for the first time, so here’s a quick guide to what you can expect from a Singing Mamas group.

Who we are and why we Sing

Singing Mamas is a grassroots, global non-profit movement that began in Sussex. We focus on singing for wellbeing.

There’s growing evidence showing how powerful singing is for both physical and mental health.

Singing can:

Lower stress levels

Improve mood

Help you feel more connected and supported

Strengthen the bond between mama and baby

What we do

We sing simple, uplifting songs to lift our spirits and connect with one another. There’s no need to be “musical” and no expectation to sound a certain way.

We sit or stand in a circle, with a mat in the middle for babies and toddlers.

Songs are taught by ear -the facilitator sings a line, and everyone echoes it back. No sheet music, no jargon.

It’s all about the joy of singing together. No auditions, no solos, no judgement.

We focus on how singing feels, not how it sounds. If you feel emotional or teary during the session, that’s completely normal and welcome. Just stay in the circle and let it pass or take a moment away —no questions asked.

After singing for an hour, we stay for half an hour to relax, chat, drink tea, and eat cake (including gluten-free and vegan options).
