Who's the māmā behind a business you can't stop raving about? The handmade, the small-batch, the run-from-the-kitchen-table legends. Tag them below so we can all show them some love.

Plenty more local, whānau-focused businesses to discover on Hey Māmā too, through the link in bio.

3am feeds call for just enough light to see what you're doing, and not a lot more. #sponsored

@earthmama.nz's Himalayan salt lamp gives off a soft, warm glow, and it comes with a dimmer so you can turn it right down for night feeds and nappy changes. Each one is hand-carved and sits on a hardwood base, so no two look quite the same, and it still looks lovely on a bedside table long after the newborn days are behind you.

Pop it somewhere little hands can't reach, and you've got a gentle night light that feels a bit nicer than the hallway light left on.

Find Earth Mama through the link in bio, or search them on Hey Māmā.

Wanting our time, our attention and a spot on our

Wanting our time, our attention and a spot on our lap isn't too much to ask. That's exactly what tamariki are meant to want. It's the inbox, the bills and the pace of everything else that can pile up. A reminder to protect the moments that matter and let some of the rest slide.

Spring in Aotearoa = one glorious morning, horizontal rain by lunchtime. #sponsored That is exactly when @topsy_turvy_nz's indoor climbing gear earns its keep.

It is the sort of setup that lives in the lounge and gets used every day, not just when the weather plays along.

Save this for the next wet week. Find them on Hey Māmā.

In the Village this week:

★ From 24 October, anyone newly hired to work directly with tamariki will have their overseas convictions checked as well as their NZ record. Existing children’s workers follow from 24 April 2027. It’s part of the Responding to Abuse in Care Legislation Amendment Act 2025, and a quiet but welcome lift in keeping kids safe. (Source: Ministry of Education)

★ This Thursday, 15 October, is Plunket’s Giving Day. For 24 hours, or until the match runs out, every donation is matched dollar for dollar by the Wright Family Foundation. It’s backing Whānau Āwhina Plunket’s Online Perinatal Wellbeing Service, which supports parents who find specialist help hard to reach. @plunketnz (Source: Scoop)

★ It’s Mental Health Awareness Week, 12 to 18 October, and this year’s theme is Belonging Matters. One real chat, a check-in on a mate, or finally saying kia ora to the neighbour you keep meaning to meet all count. Find ideas and resources at mhaw.nz @mhfnz #mhawnz

★ Dame Lisa Carrington and husband Michael Buck have welcomed their first baby, a wee girl! She shared a peek at those tiny feet and says they’re completely in love. Congratulations to the whānau ♡ (Source: 1News)

Cheering on a friend's new business. Dropping off

Cheering on a friend's new business. Dropping off dinner when a new pēpi arrives. Sending the "you've got this" text at exactly the right moment.

That's the village, and it's built by people who show up for each other. Tag someone who's always in your corner. 💛

If you are hapū right now and due over summer, consider this your nudge. #sponsored Maternity and newborn windows are short, and Sarah @heartandsoulphotographynz tends to book ahead.

Her 2026 pricing is refreshingly clear. Collection Two is $490 for a 45 minute session, 15 high resolution images and a $50 print credit. Collection Three is $790 for an hour, a full gallery of 40 plus photos and a $100 print credit.

No guessing games, no pressure to upgrade later.

Waikato based, covering maternity, newborn and family. Keep her in mind.

Spring is here, the days are longer, and the washing will still be there when you get back. 🌿

Consider this your official permission to head outside, leave the mess for later and go see the worm your tamariki desperately want to show you.
