About That Expat Single Mum

Welcome to That Expat Single Mum, a space created for single mums (and Dads) in the UAE and beyond who are navigating the unique challenges of being a single parent away from our loved ones in our home country.

As a single mum myself, I know how isolating and overwhelming this journey can feel. From co-parenting across borders to finding community in a new country, this blog and community hub is here to support, uplift, and inspire you.

What You'll Find Here

  • Honest Reflections: Real-life stories about the ups, downs, and everything in between of single parenthood as an expat.

  • Practical Advice: Tips on co-parenting, managing cultural nuances, legal insights, and self-care in a region where resources for single parents are often limited.

  • Community Connection: A safe, inclusive space to connect with other single mums facing similar experiences, share advice, and build friendships.

Why I Started That Expat Single Mum

I became a single mum unexpectedly, and I soon realized there was a need for a space that caters to single expat parents like us. This blog is a blend of my personal journey, practical resources, and the supportive community I wish I had from the start. I hope you’ll feel at home here and that together, we’ll create a stronger, more connected community.

Join me as we navigate, celebrate, and uplift each other through this journey.
