Submit a letter

Thanks for being a part of this special initiative to share words of wisdom between mothers.

Western Sydney University wants to promote resilient motherhood so we’re asking you to complete this short survey and share what and who you found particularly helpful during the first-year after birth, and why in an anonymous letter. This might include examples of support that family or friends provided, services you found useful or just the tips you want to share.

The project is an initiative of the research team at the School of Nursing and Midwifery at Western Sydney University.

By sending your letter, you agree for it to be shared publicly on the Mother’s Day Letters website, given to a new mother in a maternity unit and included in a monograph as part of a research project on maternal anxiety.


If you become upset or distressed from your participation in this project, please contact one of the support services listed on the website.

Thank you very much for helping our mums and for participating in this important project.
