Find a Becoming Us Parenthood Guide

Support for the journey into parenthood — wherever you’re starting from

Life with a new baby can be joyful, tender, and deeply connecting. It can also bring unexpected challenges — for you, for your partner, and for your family as a whole.

A Becoming Us Parenthood Guide is someone who understands that parenthood isn’t just about caring for a baby. It’s also about navigating change — in your relationship, your sense of self, your family dynamics, and your hopes for the future.

Whether you’re noticing new differences between you and your partner, feeling stretched by outside pressures, navigating in-law dynamics, or simply wondering how to stay connected through it all, a Parenthood Guide can help you find your way forward.

What is a Becoming Us Parenthood Guide?

Becoming Us Parenthood Guides are trained professionals who support expecting and new parents using a shared map for parenthood — one that recognises the normal, common changes couples and families move through during pregnancy, birth, and early family life.

They are experienced in working with:

  • mothers, fathers, parents, and partners

  • couples and individual parents

  • the emotional and relational shifts of early parenthood

  • the wider family context — including grandparents and support networks

Most importantly, they understand that challenges don’t mean something is “wrong”. They mean something important is changing.

It’s never too late to prepare

Many parents worry they’ve “missed the boat” if they didn’t prepare before their baby arrived.

The good news is: the most meaningful preparation for parenthood often begins after your baby is here.

You can prepare for:

  • next week

  • the next stage

  • the next shift in your relationship

  • the family you’re still becoming

Parenthood is a journey for life — and support can be helpful at any point along the way.

What to look for

All fully trained Becoming Us Parenthood Guides carry the official Becoming Us facilitator badge.

This badge tells you that your guide has completed professional training in the Becoming Us approach and is committed to supporting parents in ways that:

  • are relationship-centred

  • inclusive of both partners

  • grounded in real life, not ideals

  • focused on helping families grow closer through change
