Perinatal depression and anxiety impacts around 100,000 Australians each year.
You are not alone.
Our story starts with Gidget
Gidget was the nickname of a vibrant young mother who tragically took her own life while experiencing postnatal depression, a diagnosis that she kept to herself.
In her honour, her family and friends created Gidget Foundation Australia, which evokes Gidget’s warmth and lively spirit.
