ABOUT US

“Before the birth of my child, I was very physically active, and that also kept my mental health in good shape. Therefore, I knew that long walks would continue to be a part of my days after the baby’s arrival. By now, I have strolled hundreds and hundreds of kilometers – outdoor movement became a consistent routine in the slightly chaotic and daunting postpartum period. I particularly looked forward to walks when I knew I could walk with someone, chat, ask questions, explore, or simply talk about everyday topics. In my new role, I had lost the usual frequent communication with colleagues and friends, whose schedules differed from my baby’s sleep times. I hadn’t yet found new contacts related to children, making it easy to slip into a bubble of loneliness. On the other hand, I often saw other moms and dads on the streets, but beyond a shy smile, I didn’t know how to establish contact with them.”
