Our Story
Why we started The Mummy Box.
For the mother who is doing her best — and quietly wondering why it feels so hard to be held.
The Beginning
Holding mothers through every stage.
The Mummy Box was born from something we kept seeing, again and again: brilliant, capable women navigating pregnancy and postpartum largely on their own. Between appointments, advice overload, and the pressure to have it all figured out, the care that should surround a mother had quietly disappeared.
We are Stephanie Onyema, a full spectrum doula, and Dr Chris Onyema, a medical doctor — partners in life, parents to two children, and founders of The Mummy Box. Stephanie brings the hands-on, heart-led support of someone who has walked beside mothers through birth and the fourth trimester. Chris brings the clinical clarity that helps women feel safe, informed, and confident in their bodies.
We built The Mummy Box for women who are tired of piecing everything together alone. Each box is curated trimester by trimester, because your needs shift, and your support should too.
You were never meant to do this alone. The Mummy Box is our way of making sure you don't have to.
