Mentoring Support
Mentors provide friendship, support, and acceptance to pregnant and new moms looking for help. Mentors share lessons on baby health, wellness, safety, and developmental milestones. Mentors provide moms with activities they can use to help their babies’ mental and physical development while improving bonding. Mentors help connect moms to other resources if needed for assistance with transportation, housing, child care, education, counseling, bills, food, etc. Mentors also share the love and hope found only in Christ Jesus.
Mentor Training
One by One uses an evidence-based program to train mentors to serve pregnant and new moms. We provide mentors with all the materials they need to help their moms succeed. Each mentor talks/texts with her matched mom weekly and meets with her monthly at least until her child turns one. We provide training and materials in both English and Spanish.
One by One has three programs: Our Year 1 program begins prenatally and runs until the child turns one. Our Year 2 program runs from the child’s first birthday to her second. Our Discipleship program is a 13-week program for moms who want to learn more about what it means to be a Christ-follower. This program can run independently or concurrently with either the Year 1 or Year 2 program.
In-Person and Virtual Mentoring
One by One currently provides in-person mentoring in West Tennessee; North Mississippi; Dallas/Fort Worth and San Antonio, Texas; and Garden City, Kansas. We are looking to expand our in-person services to other areas of the United States.
New! We have a new virtual mentoring model which allows mentors to meet virtually with any mom in the United States.
