MumVee exists for the part of new parenthood that nobody prepares you for — the money, the recovery, the admin and the 2am questions the glossy books quietly skip.
Why we started
Every new parent in Australia gets handed the same stack: a few glossy books, a hospital pamphlet, and a hundred open browser tabs that all say something slightly different. None of it tells you which government payment is actually worth more, what your body really does in the weeks after birth, or the claim deadline that quietly costs families thousands when it's missed.
We'd been through it ourselves — the guesswork, the conflicting advice, the 1am searches that ended in more worry than answers. So we built the honest version we wished someone had handed us on day one.
What we make
MumVee creates clear, beautifully designed digital guides for first-time Australian parents. Our flagship guide, What Nobody Tells You, covers the whole first-baby journey — the payments, your recovery, sleep, feeding and the newborn admin checklist — in plain language with the current 2026 figures.
Around it sits a small library of companion guides for the specific people and moments that need their own answers: a guide for dads and partners, one for grandparents, and focused guides on sleep, the baby shower and registry, and postpartum recovery.
What makes us different
- Australian, and current. Every payment, deadline and helpline is local and checked against Services Australia and the national health authorities for 2026 — not borrowed from an American website that doesn't apply here.
- Honest, never fear-driven. We tell you the truth first, then exactly how to handle it. No scare tactics, no judgement, no upsell into anxiety.
- Plain language. No jargon, no fluff. Just the things that genuinely matter, in the order you'll need them.
- Yours forever. A one-time purchase and an instant download you can read on your phone at the hospital, print for the fridge, and come back to whenever you need it.
Our promise
We're a small Australian team, and we treat every guide like it's going to a friend. If something isn't what we described, we'll re-send it, fix it, or refund you — that's our 30-day make-it-right promise, no fuss.
However you came to find us — pregnant, planning, or already deep in the newborn fog — we're glad you're here. You've got this, and we'll be the calm hand on your shoulder while you find your feet.
