About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

It takes a village to raise a child. Welcome to yours.


From trying to conceive to the unpredictable journey of pregnancy, giving birth, and everything that comes after, becoming a mum can be daunting and isolating, but it doesn’t have to be.

It Takes a Village is the honest, heart-opening companion every mother deserves. Drawing on the deeply personal stories of women from the Peanut community—the global network connecting millions of women navigating fertility, pregnancy and motherhood—this book brings to life everything they wished they’d known before about the real, raw, and beautiful realities of new motherhood.

Alongside these stories, trusted experts—from psychologists and gynaecologists to doulas and midwives—offer compassionate, practical insights to guide you every step of the way. Whether you're seeking reassurance, knowledge, or simply the comfort of knowing someone gets it, this book is here to support you.

You are not alone. You never were.
