This Estonian-language community was created for pregnant women and mothers whose youngest child is under three, many of whom feel isolated in early motherhood and want support grounded in evidence rather than guesswork. Katrin Saage, a certified doula and breastfeeding consultant, built the space so members are not left piecing together parenting advice on their own — it is designed to meet people wherever they are in pregnancy or the postpartum stretch, with no prior class required to join.

Inside, members get evidence-based posts on pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding, plus live Zoom mother circles where people share what they are going through and hear from others further along. Guest experts join monthly sessions, recorded for anyone who misses them, and members can hear real birth stories shared by other mothers in the community. A weekly email keeps things from getting lost in the shuffle, and occasional regional in-person meetups give members a chance to connect outside the screen.
