The Imperfect Mum
The Imperfect Mum
Kristy Vallely is the founder and Creator of the Imperfect Mum.
After the tragic loss of her first baby Titan, Kristy then went onto to have two more children in which she suffered from postnatal depression.
These stressful times in her life made her look beyond her personal journey and she started to wonder about what other women experienced. Kristy says "As a society we are bombarded with images of this unrealistic picture of what motherhood should be. It’s this unattainable picture that I think a lot of women strive for. I wanted to break down that image. That 'image' has a lot to answer for. I personally believe that it can be a trigger for some Post Natal Depression cases".
Kristy believed there needed to be a place that women could go to. Where they could talk and relate. A place they could feel safe. A place they trusted. So The Imperfect Mum was born in June 2011. There was obviously such a need that when the gates 'opened' a huge flurry of women followed. Kristy has always been very passionate about women and the issues they face.
Her passion and determination has helped her carve out a career helping others and creating 'a go to place' for women from all around the world.
