MULTITUDE

Play & Coffee dates for families with multiples

Parents of multiples face unique challenges: extra care, sleep deprivation, attachment questions and balancing between individual attention and shared care. MULTITUDE aims to provide a warm and informal space where families can find recognition, support and connection with others who know exactly how it feels.

These meetings are for and by multiple parents. With a cup of coffee, while the children play, there is space to share, listen, laugh and just take a breath.

The story behind MULTITUDE

MULTITUDE was initiated by Dorien, herself the mother of twins:

The first year with her sons was tough: two crying babies, double worries, sleep deprivation and little recognition. The well-meaning tips she received rarely matched the reality of having more than one baby.

Until she met another twin mum. In that conversation, she found real recognition for the first time - that quiet understanding you only feel when someone really knows what you are going through.

So MULTITUDE was born: A place of recognition, connection and breathing space. Welcome!
