How do I meet other childless women in person?
Gateway Women hosted hundreds of local ‘meetups’ around the world from 2012-2022. All of these now run via the Childless Collective online community (formerly the Gateway Women online community) and you can find out more and access them here.
How do I connect with other childless women online?
- The Childless Collective community on MightyNetworks. (Global) The first month is free, after which there’s a modest monthly/annual fee or reduced/donation memberships for those who need them. All applications are vetted for member security and privacy. Click here for more info/to access.
- Nomo Club: this is a subgroup within the Childless Collective community, hosted by Gateway Women’s founder, Jody Day, for those members who are through the worst of their ‘griefy’ days around their childlessness and are now actively embracing the life unexpected! To be part of it, you will need to join/access the main Childless Collective community first, and then navigate to ‘groups’ and ‘Nomo Club’. As well as the online sharing space, we meet twice monthly for our member-only Nomo Club Zoom Cafes.
- World Childless Week maintains a list of other groups for childless people here.
