Our Vision is a future where we waste less, share more and care for every child.

Our Mission

Our mission is to rehome pre-loved nursery goods to support Victorian families in need while saving the earth’s precious resources.

We collect, sort and redistribute essential nursery equipment, clothing, books and toys for babies and school age children.

Our Values

Respect
For each other.  For the earth. For ourselves.

Community 
We live and thrive in a community who shares and supports each other.

Integrity 
We are transparent in our work and strive for excellence in everything we do.

Our Guiding Principles

• We will work with and support existing social services and maternal health workers;

• We will not duplicate the work of these existing social services but endeavour to add value to these services;

• We will ensure that the criteria for recipient eligibility is determined by social service agencies and not by Geelong Mums;

• We will ensure that all goods donated are of a good quality, in working condition, and adhere to the appropriate Australian safety standards (ie. we would use the goods ourselves);

• We give everything as a gift with no expectation of return;

• We seek to save the earth's precious resources by rehoming, recycling, reusing and repurposing as much as possible;

• We will work with partners and supporters who share our values and goals.
