When mom feels supported,

the whole family thrives.

Join the movement to revolutionize maternal mental health care, one text at a time.

why it matters

Mothers often seek support not only for depression or anxiety, but for overwhelm, identity loss, relationship strain, guilt, isolation, career challenges, and the day-to-day emotional weight of caregiving.

Traditional mental health systems depend on a mother recognizing she needs help, finding a provider, scheduling an appointment, and overcoming stigma. Mable reduces those barriers by providing immediate, judgment-free support exactly when a mother is ready to reach out.

  • 48% of mothers who needed support did not adequately receive it

  • 93% of mothers say they experience caregiver burnout

  • Only 9% of mothers say that they are able to consistently prioritize their own well-being

  • A significant number of mothers struggle silently: 1 in 5 mothers told no one about their emotional difficulties.

a message from our founder, Nicole lockhart

The data reflects that modern mothers are navigating a severe isolation crisis where 1 in 10 are raising children entirely unsupported. Most maternal support systems focus on postpartum care, yet emotional distress often begins during conception struggles, exist throughout pregnancy, and continue beyond a six-months check up.

Mable provides free, 24/7, confidential mental health support via text, delivering immediate responses to parents in need. With 3.6 million births in the U.S. last year, the potential population in need is enormous

Mable meets mothers where they are — while delivering what AI cannot: real human counseling, evidence-based expertise, and genuine connection.

who we currently serve

Spanning conception through parenting, Mable currently serves parents trying to conceive, who are currently pregnant, or have a child who is under 2 years of age. We are a national non-profit organization based in the United States.

how we use funding

our solution to the problem

Mable pairs human connection with simple technology, compassionate communication, and access to resources to help mothers in whatever need they present to us. Mable is like a digital village, ensuring no mother has to navigate difficult moments alone at 2 AM when most support systems are unavailable.

By texting Mable, parents are immediately connected to one of our trained volunteer maternity counselors who are available every day, at all hours. Counselors must complete an application, interview, and 15-hours training course before their first shift on the platform. Every conversation is supervised by a staff member of our organization, and every texter is treated with respect and compassion, regardless of their situation or demographic backgrounds.

Every conversation is an opportunity to tilt the scales back in a mother’s favor. It’s Free to text. No need to download an app or sign up first. All conversations are private, and texter information is always anonymous.
