Meet the founder
Hello, I’m Sarah
I am a mother of two inquisitive and loving little boys.
I have 15 years of experience as a social worker and social planner in both government and community-based settings. I established MGM in September 2021 and now I’m a social entrepreneur. A title I am still growing into!
I am a trained breastfeeding educator and have facilitated groups for new mothers since 2018.

Matrescence refers to the complete transformation of a woman as she moves through motherhood.
Why is this work important?
