How to join

All our groups are organized through Heylo, a purpose-built community app designed to help our members connect, learn, and get the most out of Mamma Swim.

With Heylo, mums can easily find all the information they need, connect with others before attending, create and join events, share photos, and understand exactly how everything works.

It’s easy to use, and if you’re feeling nervous about your first swim, you’ll find hundreds of mums ready to offer support and ease your concerns.

For quick approval, be sure to upload a clear, recent profile picture and include a short bio!

About us

Mamma Swim CIC is a social enterprise focused on enhancing the well-being of mothers through swimming, connection, and peer support.

We provide a free, welcoming community where mums can prioritize their own health and well-being while enjoying the benefits of swimming in a supportive environment.

With year-round sessions across North London, our unique childcare exchange enables mums to care for one another’s babies, giving each the opportunity for a much-needed swim.

Our community is built on shared experiences, resilience, and the belief that when mums are strong and happy, families thrive.

  • "‘Mamma Swim got me out of the house on days when I really didn't feel like it, got me moving and connecting with other mums, and definitely improved my physical and mental wellbeing."
