We’re here to help
It takes a village
What does ‘the village’ really mean when your baby’s no longer a newborn, people have stopped checking in, and regardless of how many years you’ve been a mum, it doesn’t feel any easier?
Maybe your family is far away or not always helpful. Maybe your partner works long hours, or you are juggling paid work and childcare. You’re likely carrying the weight of it all - the emotional labour of motherhood and the mental load.
We’ve supported mothers in all kinds of situations, and the result is the same: There’s real relief in having someone steady, practical, and kind in your corner, helping to carry the load.
“My little man will only contact nap on either me or his dad during the day. Luckily for us he absolutely adores Jasmine and happily fell asleep on her so this touched out Mama could have a break.”

Who are the Mother’s Helpers?
We are a small team of mothers - experienced, vetted, and genuinely passionate about supporting other mums through the beautiful, full-on reality of raising children.
Each of our Mother’s Helpers has been carefully selected not just for their practical skills, but for their warmth, non-judgement, and their understanding of what it actually feels like to be in the thick of it. We don't show up with opinions. We show up with our sleeves rolled up.
The Bayside Doula was founded by Jasmine Meek - a Postpartum Doula, a mum, and someone who knows what it means to mother without a village. Every person on this team has been chosen with her values in mind: care that is nourishing, no-nonsense, and deeply human.
I am passionate
about supporting mothers
Hi, I’m Jasmine - The Bayside Doula. I offer steady, practical help through the often-overlooked seasons of motherhood.
Whether your baby is crawling, your toddler is climbing the walls, or you’re deep in the school/work juggle, you deserve support. Mother’s Helper support is rooted in lived experience, professional training, and a deep understanding of how hard motherhood can be without a village.
When I’m not helping other mums across Brisbane and the Redlands, I’m living the messy, beautiful chaos of life as a mother of two. I share the honest bits in my blog and private Facebook group, so other mums know they’re not alone. I get it, and I’ve got you.
“When Jasmine contacted me I was in the trenches of horrendous sleep deprivation, anxiety and depression. I was trying and failing to ‘fix’ my sons sleep. Jasmine provided the emotional support and wisdom from a Mama who has walked the sleep deprivation path herself ... Truly worth every penny, save your money on the Snoo/sleep consultant and book in with Jasmine.”
Mother’s Help may include:
-
Tidying & Cleaning
Your Mother's Helper will leave your home a little sparklier than they found it. How much gets done depends on your needs, but the goal is always the same: to lighten your load and create a peaceful space to rest and enjoy your family.
-
Cooking
Your Mother's Helper can help with cooking, prepping meals, and help you get organised e.g. with shopping lists or packing lunches. They can support you as your baby starts solids or help find recipes for fussy kids.
-
Laundry
Laundry is endless. Your Mother's Helper can wash, fold, put clothes away, rotate baby and kids' wardrobes, and change bedsheets and towels each week. Whatever helps keep the washing pile from taking over.
-
Emotional Support
As fellow mothers, our Mother's Helpers offer a non-judgemental space for you to share what’s going on for you. Many mothers feel a sense of relief talking to someone else who has been through it. Some mothers are lonely in this season and find comfort in the quiet presence of another mother in the home.
-
Care for Baby and Kids
Our Mother's Helpers are here to care for the carers, which sometimes means looking after your baby or older child while you shower, exercise, or just enjoy a break with your hands free. For mums of multiple kids, it can be such a help to ‘divide and conquer’ so that each child can have their needs met without mum feeling stretched thin.
-
Organisation & Ad-Hoc Support
Writing shopping lists, meal planning, toy rotations, or finally tackling the junk drawer; whatever the task, your Mother's Helper is there to help. Sometimes it’s not the obvious tasks that need doing; it's the collection of random jobs that fall to the bottom of the to-do list and pile up. We want to help you create space, ease, and a bit more breathing room in your day.
-
Errands & Family Admin
Your Mother's Helper can collect click and collect orders, unpack deliveries, and help keep the household ticking along behind the scenes. They can run short household errands such as returning library books or taking your donations to the op shop.
-
Garden, Outdoors & Pets
A little attention to the outside of the home can make a big difference, too. Your Mother's Helper can water indoor and outdoor plants, do basic weeding and garden tidying, sweep outdoor areas, bring bins in or out on bin day, collect the mail, and feed or spend time with the family pet.
Meet the Team
Our Mothers Helpers aren't just skilled…they're also mothers. They've lived the juggle, the witching hours, the touched-out days, and the season when the visitors stop coming, but the need for help doesn't. They show up with capable hands and a genuine understanding of what family life really looks like.
From the Sunshine Coast to the Gold Coast, we have a team of women who believe that mothers deserve real, steady support, not just in the newborn days, but in all seasons of mothering.
