About Omugwo

Omugwo is a beautiful African tradition where elders, typically grandmothers, nurture new mothers through their postpartum journey. This sacred practice brings emotional, physical, and cultural support that transforms motherhood. We're here to extend that tradition, connecting you with experienced Omugwos who provide care, guidance, and wisdom as you welcome your little one into the world.
