who we are
Delft MaMa began in 2007 as Delft Maternity And Motherhood Assistance, a registered non-profit organisation which first focussed on supporting mothers-to-be, and mothers with young children. Over the last 15 years, we have grown to become an active, inclusive community promoting the well-being and integration of international families in and around Delft, The Netherlands.
“We support Delft international families with connection to community so that they can take better care of their children and themselves.”
OUR BOARD
Delft MaMa is led by a board of volunteers, who represent the community and organisation to continue to operate as an official and strong not-for-profit organisation.

We’d like to continue to acknowledge the many volunteers who have contributed over the years. Many of our team move (back) to another country, or move on to other commitments….but will always have a place in the heart of the Delft MaMa community!
