Our founder Bernadette Black shares her personal story on teenage pregnancy
"You’re not just a mum, you can do anything you put your mind to. It sounds cringy but it’s true”
Proud to be financially independent
"We wanted to break generational trauma we’ve got by letting her know we are always there."
I was out celebrating a friend’s 16th birthday when I found out news that would indeed change my life... I was pregnant!
My two children are the best thing that has happened to me - I definitely think that you can achieve anything you want with the right support.

I fell pregnant weeks after my sixteenth birthday unexpectedly.
