A book for your motherhood journey
I wrote Life at Home: Finding Joy in Motherhood for the mother who wants to feel more present, more grounded, and more connected to herself while raising little ones.
Inside, you’ll find mindful reflections, encouragement, and gentle reminders that you’re not alone, you’re doing better than you think, and you deserve grace too.
Motherhood isn’t about doing it all — it’s about learning to breathe inside the moments you never saw coming.

Read more: Quiet Lessons Motherhood Taught Me This YearThis year unfolded its lessons slowly. There were no dramatic turning points or clear before-and-after moments. No single realization arrived fully formed. Instead, motherhood taught me in small ways — through repetition, adjustment, and the quiet shifts that happened as another baby joined our home. Bringing a new life into our family didn’t just change…

Read more: Mindful Motherhood: What to Carry into the New YearAs another year turns, there’s a familiar pressure to decide who we’re going to be next: what we’ll work on, what we’ll improve, and what we’ll finally get right. But motherhood has a way of softening that urgency. After a year of showing up day after day — tired, present, imperfect — I find myself…

Read more: Five Parenting Books Every Mom Should Read (And Why They Actually Helped Me)There’s no shortage of parenting books — and honestly, that can feel like part of the problem. Some are helpful in theory but hard to apply. Others say the same thing in different ways. A few, though, quietly stick with you. These are five books that did that for me — not because they promised…

Read more: From “I Have To” to “I Get To”: A Motherhood Mindset ShiftIt had been a long day. One of those days where you’re already mentally counting down to bedtime before dinner is even over. We were finishing up eating when I got the text: my husband had to work late. That meant bedtime was on me. Alone. My first thought wasn’t calm or gracious or understanding.…

Read more: Onion Remedies: Natural Relief for Seasonal IllnessIf you’d told me a few years ago that I would have bowls of sliced onions scattered around my home during sick season, I would’ve laughed and walked away.

Read more: Embracing Imperfect MotherhoodAs mothers, we are constantly being told what we should do. Every day, we consume an endless swirl of advice from social media, articles, parenting accounts, influencers, and experts who seem to have the “right” answer for everything. What your child should eat. How they should sleep. What developmental activities they need. What you should…
“There’s no way to be a perfect mother, and a million ways to be a good one.”
– JILL CHURCHILL
Hi, I’m Lisa — the heart behind Mamma Bloomer.
I’m a mom of two girls living in the Netherlands, navigating the beautiful, messy, emotional world of modern motherhood.
Mamma Bloomer was created as a quiet corner for mothers who crave softness, presence, and a reminder that they’re not alone. A space to breathe, reflect, grow, and feel supported.
I don’t have all the answers — just a desire to show up with empathy, curiosity, and the belief that we’re all learning as we go.
Motherhood grows us in ways we never expect.
I’m here to explore that growth with you.
I’’m so glad you’re here 🤍
