Gather & Grow

A collaboration between Active Birth Taranaki, La Leche League Taranaki, Postpartum Pathways, and the Ngāmotu New Plymouth Parents Center, held at Flourish Taranaki.

Gather & Grow

A weekly morning for pregnant women, new parents, and families navigating the early years, held every Wednesday from 10am at Flourish Taranaki, starting in term 3 on 29 July 2026.

Run in collaboration with Active Birth Taranaki, La Leche League Taranaki, Postpartum Pathways, and the Ngāmotu New Plymouth Parents Centre. Come as you are … whether it is your best day or a tough one, everyone is welcome. No cost, no registration, no pressure. Pop in when it suits and leave when you need to.

Some weeks are guided by a topic or guest speaker, others unfold as a relaxed sharing circle shaped by what the group needs that day. Either way, there is always good company, warm drinks, and a space to simply be.

Babies, toddlers, partners and whānau all welcome.

Who this group is for: 
– Expectant mothers and birth partners 
– New parents in the postpartum stage 
– Families with infants and toddlers in the early years of parenting 
This is a space to “come as you are” – whether it’s your best day or a tough one, everyone is welcome.
