Baby & Toddler Groups: Growing Together
Whether you’re discussing feeding schedules, teething troubles, or first steps, these groups provide a space to share your experiences and get advice from other mums who are right there with you.
Friendship Groups: For You
Once your little one starts school, your needs as a mum change. These groups offer a space to chat about your interests, hobbies, and the joys and challenges of raising older children, all while staying connected with the same supportive community you’ve known since your child was born.
What to Expect After Joining
Once you join your group, you’ll be welcomed by our friendly community of mums just like you. Our groups are moderated to ensure a safe, supportive, and positive environment where everyone feels comfortable sharing and participating.
Grapeviner Groups are private Facebook communities for mums, segmented by their baby’s due date or birth date, where members connect, share experiences, and get support throughout their motherhood journey.
Joining is easy! Enter your due date or child’s birthday on the signup page or click the matching image tile. You’ll be directed straight to your group on Facebook.
Yes, all Grapeviner Groups are completely free to join.
Any Australian expectant mum or mum with a child can join. The groups are segmented by the season your children are due or born.
Mum’s Grapevine offers three types of Grapeviner Groups, each designed to meet the unique needs of mothers at different stages of their journey:
- Pregnancy Groups: These groups are tailored for expectant mums to discuss all things pregnancy. Whether you’re navigating morning sickness, preparing for birth, or setting up your nursery, our Pregnancy Groups provide a space to connect with other mums-to-be who share your due date season. This allows you to share your experiences, ask questions, and find reassurance from those who are right alongside you on the journey to motherhood.
- Baby & Toddler Groups: Once your baby arrives, your group switches seamlessly into a Baby & Toddler Group. These groups are perfect for mums with children from newborn up to starting school. Here, you can chat about everything from feeding and sleep schedules to teething and toddler tantrums. As your baby grows, the group evolves with you, providing ongoing support through every stage of early childhood.
- Mum Friendship Groups: As your child reaches school age, your group switches again into a Mum Friendship Group. These groups are for mums with older children at school, offering a space to talk about your interests, hobbies, and the unique challenges of raising older children.
The friendships you’ve formed in earlier groups continue to thrive as you discuss not only your children’s growth but also your own personal journey as a mother. These groups are segmented by the season your child was born, ensuring you remain connected with mums who have shared your journey from the start.
Each Grapeviner Group is segmented by the season your child is due or born, which helps ensure that you’re always connecting with mums who are at the same stage as you. This continuity allows you to build strong, lasting relationships with other mums who understand exactly what you’re going through, making these groups a valuable source of support throughout your motherhood journey.
Yes, absolutely! If you have more than one child, you can join a different Grapeviner Group for each of them. Each of your children will have their own unique journey, and by joining multiple groups, you can connect with other mums who are experiencing the same stages with their children.
For example, you might be in a Pregnancy Group as you await the arrival of your new baby, while also participating in a Baby & Toddler Group for your older child. This allows you to access tailored advice and support for each stage of your children’s development, all within a community of mums who understand the specific challenges and joys that come with each age.
By being part of multiple groups, you can share your experiences, ask questions, and receive support that’s relevant to each of your children, ensuring you’re fully supported as a mum no matter where you are on your motherhood journey. Each group is segmented by your child’s due date or birth date, so you’ll always be surrounded by mums who are going through the same milestones and challenges as you are with each of your children.
es, all Grapeviner Groups are private and can only be accessed by approved members.
The groups are moderated by experienced mums who volunteer to ensure a positive, supportive environment.
Yes, you can switch groups if your circumstances change or if you feel that another group would be a better fit for you. Life as a mum is constantly evolving, and we want to make sure you’re always in the group that best meets your needs.
Here’s how:
- Leave Your Current Group: Visit the group on Facebook and select the option to leave the group. This will remove you from the current group’s discussions and updates.

Currently, the Grapeviner Groups do not support anonymous posting. All posts and comments in the groups are visible to other members, including your name and profile picture.

If you have a sensitive question or concern, you can consider reaching out directly to a group moderator for guidance or support.
Topics vary by group but typically include pregnancy tips, baby milestones, toddler challenges, product recommendations, and more.
The groups are very active, with daily discussions, weekly themes, and regular posts from mums sharing their journeys and seeking advice.
