Louise Nisbet is the creator of Happy Mummas.

With 4 children under the age of 4, and a husband who commuted to Sydney, it often meant long and sometimes exhausting days.

Our Services
Happy Mummas is here to provide support to busy modern families navigating the challenges of parenthood. Our goal is to make those challenging times more manageable and less stressful.
Working from Home Assistance
Balancing parenting and working from home can be extremely challenging and stressful. We can step in to engage children with fun activities, allowing parents to focus on work commitments for as long as necessary.
Multiple Birth Family Support
As a parent of 4 with twins our Parenting Assistant understands the unique challenges faced by multiple birth parents. Especially if there are additional siblings. We have first hand knowledge that parents of multiples rarely get time for themselves and offer hands on support to navigate the challenges of raising multiples and the opportunity for a well deserved break.
FIFO, Defence Force and Business Travel Support
We understand that having a partner whose work involves travel and being away for periods of time can leave a single parent juggling multiple responsibilities. Our Parenting Assistant can provide support with busy schedules and the opportunity for a break in a partners absence.
New Parent Support
The transition into Motherhood can be overwhelming, especially if you don’t have extended family guidance. We can offer practical and emotional support building those parenting skills or just ensure Mumma and baby receive the rest and care they deserve.
Additionally welcoming a new baby while caring for older children can be both physically and emotionally challenging. We can engage with older siblings or care for the newborn, creating time for parents to give each family member the attention they deserve, while adjusting to a new family dynamic. We can also give mum valuable time to take a break, catch up on sleep or attend to household tasks.
Healthcare Appointments
Attending an appointment with a Healthcare Professional is crucial to a family’s wellbeing. We offer availability to care for your children while you attend a Doctor, Dentist or other Health Care Provider. Our Parenting Assistant can either come to your home or meet you at your appointment and wait with your children while you attend the appointment uninterrupted and in privacy.
Self Care Support
Taking care of yourself physically and emotionally is essential to meet the many challenges, highs and lows of being a parent. Whether time is needed for exercise, relaxation, retail therapy, personal grooming or even catching up on much needed sleep. We can provide the opportunity to focus on self care and wellbeing, knowing your children are happily cared for within the comfort of your own home.
