Who We Are

A Community Built on Belonging

My Baby And I is a community association dedicated to empowering women from ethnically diverse backgrounds — particularly new and expectant mothers — across Glasgow and Renfrewshire.

We understand that the journey into motherhood can feel isolating, especially when you're navigating a new country, culture, or language. That's why we created a warm, welcoming space where women can find sisterhood, practical support, and the tools they need to build the life they deserve.

We work in partnership with local councils, employers, charities, and community organisations to make sure our members have access to real opportunities.

🌱 Growth
