Amy has also had the pleasure of writing with artists such as Dianna Ross, Alicia Keys , Beyonce, Keith Urban, Kacey Musgraves, Stormzy, Jonas brothers , John Legend, Camila Cabello, Mika, Lady A and most recently Andrea Bocelli. We are absolutely blown away to have her onboard.

Kimberley Chatfield, Chatfield Training - First Aid Ambassador

“I first met the Mothers Matter team when I delivered some free Paediatric First Aid Awareness sessions for them in early 2024. I was absolutely blown away by the level of support they offer to families, and in particular, their focus on perinatal mental health and wellbeing. Some of my closest friends and family members have struggled with difficulties surrounding pregnancy and birth – I remember the significant challenges my own Mum faced, too, but public awareness and support in the 90’s was virtually non-existent. Now, thankfully, things are changing, and in no small part because of the wonderful work of organisations like Mothers Matter!
 
I’m absolutely thrilled to be an ambassador for Mothers Matter. To see first-hand the incredible, inspiring and empowering work they do in Rhondda Cynon Taf and far beyond is wonderful, and the standard they set is one which I hope can be mirrored more broadly in services throughout the UK. I am thrilled to support them in delivering paediatric first aid courses to parents and families.”

Jess Halfpenny

“I’m a Mum of two young girls and know how vital it is to have that support around you before during and after birth. I experienced a very traumatic birth with my second daughter.  Although I was fortunate enough to have my village around me supporting us through that time, I couldn’t help but think of the parents who experience trauma who don’t have the same support. So when I saw the incredible work Mothers Matter were doing for families in South Wales, Iwas thrilled to be able to help and come on board as an ambassador.
The support that Mothers Matter provide is life changing for the women and families they help.  I’ve been blown away by the staff’s dedication and passion and I’m honoured to be a small part of it. I hope by raising awareness and sharing my story, it can help other people not feel alone.

As we step into a new year, we’re gently reminded that change doesn’t have to be loud or dramatic to be meaningful.Embracing change can be as simple as choosing yourself a little more. Letting go of what no longer serves you. Giving yourself permission to grow at your own pace.At Mothers Matter, we know that change can feel exciting, frightening, hopeful and overwhelming all at once. And that’s okay. You don’t have to have it all figured out to take the next step.As we move into 2026, we’d love to knowWhat is one thing you’re going to change for yourself this year?This year is all about you#newyearnewme #MentalWellbeing #PerinatalMentalHealth #parentsupport #mothersmattercymru ...

As we move into the festive seasonwe want to gently remind everyone to stay safe, be kind to yourselves, and take a moment to notice the small things around you, a warm drink, a quiet moment, a kind word, a familiar face. Gratitude doesn’t have to be big, sometimes it’s simply getting through the day.We also know that Christmas isn’t a joyful or easy time for everyone. For some, it can bring grief, loneliness, loss, or heavy emotions that feel even louder at this time of year. If that’s you, please know you’re not alone, and there is no “right” way to feel.Wherever you are this season celebrating, surviving, or somewhere in between you matter. Be gentle, reach out if you need to, and remember that support is always okay to ask for. 💛Sending love, warmth, and compassion to you all this festive season. 🎄✨From all the team at Mother's Matter xxx ...
