Motherhood is a transformative journey that brings immense joy, love, and fulfillment. However, it can also be isolating and overwhelming at times, leaving moms yearning for connection, support, and a little time for themselves. Recognizing these challenges, Modern Mama, under the ownership of Leah Doyle, is on a mission to redefine motherhood and empower moms across Canada.
Leah Doyle, the passionate and dedicated owner of Modern Mama, stepped into her role in 2019, following years of invaluable experience within the company. Starting as the area director for Sherwood Park and St. Albert in 2016, Leah witnessed the positive impact that Modern Mama had on the lives of mothers in her community. When the opportunity arose to take over as the owner, she eagerly seized it, driven by her desire to continue nurturing the growth of this vibrant community.
Hailing from Edmonton, Alberta, Leah is not only a businesswoman but also a mother herself. Alongside her husband, Ian, she is raising two children in the same city where she was born and raised. Leah understands the challenges and rewards of motherhood firsthand, fueling her dedication to support fellow moms on their unique journeys.
Modern Mama is not just a company; it’s a movement that embraces the essence of motherhood while recognizing the importance of self-care, friendship, and personal growth. Their manifesto encapsulates their purpose: “getting moms out of the house.” Whether a mom is on maternity leave, a stay-at-home parent, a working mom, or a single mom, Modern Mama aims to break the isolation and provide a platform for mothers to connect, find support, and discover their own passions.
The team at Modern Mama firmly believes that although motherhood introduces a new chapter in a woman’s life, it doesn’t diminish the importance of her individuality and personal needs. The company strives to create opportunities for moms to have fun, cultivate friendships, and carve out valuable ‘me-time’ in their busy schedules. By organizing various events and activities, Modern Mama enables mothers to explore their interests while fostering a sense of belonging within a vibrant and supportive community.
One of the primary focuses of Modern Mama is providing essential resources and support to new and expecting moms. Recognizing the unique challenges and joys of this transformative period, Modern Mama offers valuable services catered specifically to mothers in the first years of motherhood. With a presence in five major Canadian cities, they serve as a trusted resource for moms, guiding them through the beautiful and sometimes challenging journey of becoming a parent.
Leah Doyle’s leadership and dedication have propelled Modern Mama to new heights, expanding its reach and impact. Her passion for supporting mothers and her personal experience as a mom have shaped Modern Mama into a vital resource and a nurturing community for moms across Canada.
