Beck - Heart Full of Free As a single mum myself, I know there is nothing better than being able to chat with other single mums. They have a greater understanding of the day to day issues a single mum deals with, plus all the other hurdles we need to overcome.
Unfortunately, we don’t all have single mum friends, so one of the next best things is Facebook, as a place to connect with single mums and get advice, information and support.
These are my favourite 16 Facebook Groups and Pages that are a great spot for single mums to find support, advice and maybe just vent their frustrations to a likeminded group of people.
Single Mums Support Group Australia
This Facebook Group is for Australian Single Mums only. Join in on single mum chats, and ask questions. Give or get fellow-single mum support – or just chat about how your day’s been! A great place to vent your frustrations with ex partners, court, and the many obstacles facing a single mum.
Single Mum Vine
If you are seeking positive vibes only, then this is the Facebook group for you. This group is about empowerment, creating friendships, and making being a single mum a positive, amazing experience. Definitely a group to become a part of.
National Council of Single Mothers and Their Children
This Facebook page is informative and advocates for single mums and their children. Its goal is to empower single mums and support those living with hardship, financial hardship and domestic violence.
Australian Single Parents Support Group

There are lots of groups about parenting kids, most are focused on pregnancy, and the younger years up to pre-school. If you have teens, this is a great place to get advice about issues relevant to parenting teens. And we if you don’t have a teenager now, you will one day.
Receiving Parents and Friends Child Support Discussion Group
Everything you need to know about Child Support in Australia. This group is run by an ex Child Support Employee. He felt that it was difficult to get decent information around Child Support so he started this group. He answers every question, along with the group members. This is a no venting group, purely questions only. If you are looking for a place to share your frustrations check out The Child Support Chat Group for Australian Mums Who Receive Child support.
