Bringing a new child (or children) into the world is already stressful enough but imagine doing that in the middle of a public health crisis. That is the reality for many pregnant individuals and new moms who have given birth during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Recognizing the extra anxiety and confusion that new moms are going through during this time, Cherished Mom wanted to do something to support these individuals. Thanks to a donation from Good360 and It’s A 10 Haircare, Cherished Mom was able to build and deliver care packages directly to new moms at local hospitals in the Greater Knoxville, TN area.
Cherished Mom is a nonprofit organization which promotes awareness and education for perinatal mental health and explains the importance of self-care to new moms, families, healthcare professionals and the community.
