Our take

Motherly is a parenting and lifestyle brand aimed at bringing women an uplifting online community full of expert tricks-of-the-trade and inspiring stories that are often missing for the first time mother.

Aiming to take a slice of the $46 billion millennial parenting market, Motherly doesn't see why motherhood should come without a manual. They provide week-by-week support for every stage of the new parenting journey, offering paid-for digital classes, guides and books.

The last six years have seen investors pour over $500m into companies in the “new mom economy”, with Motherly securing a recent funding of $5.4m as it launched into commerce. Competitors such as Glow Baby and Cleo have developed apps which, while convenient, lack the community of wisdom that Motherly offers, creating a village in which the new mother can feel totally supported.
