Motherhood brings more noise, but less space to process.

Motherhood brings more noise, but less space to process.

You have so much to process in motherhood, but rarely enough uninterrupted time.

Your emotions build up, but there's little time to pause and reflect.

You don't need another app that asks you to keep up. Just somewhere you can come back to when you're ready.

You want to capture the moments of motherhood, but a paper journal doesn't always fit real life.

Your thoughts are interrupted before you have space to make sense of them.

You want a private space to journal and reflect, without pressure or performance.

Why DearMe Exists

Motherhood is intimate. Joyful and raw. Lonely and full.

Motherhood is intimate. Joyful and raw. Lonely and full.

But the transition into motherhood can be overwhelming. It brings a swirl of emotions that don't fit neatly into the highlight reel. We created DearMe to offer a calm, private space to help you slow down, tune in and make sense of what's really going on—on your terms. This isn't about fixing you. It's about feeling more like yourself, even in the in-between.

How it works

Capture your experience, your way.

About the Founder

Founder Story

Hi, I'm Deborah, founder of DearMe and mum to a little girl who flipped my world upside down (and made it better in the messiest way).

Hi, I'm Deborah, founder of DearMe and mum to a little girl who flipped my world upside down (and made it better in the messiest way).

When she was born, everything changed—sleep, identity, safety, certainty. I wanted to capture memories and journal to make sense of it all, but motherhood wasn't stillness. It was chaos stitched together with love. I always had my phone in my hand, but a paper diary didn't stand a chance.

So I started using voice notes, scribbles in my phone, and screenshots of moments I didn't want to forget. I discovered a need for a journaling app that could help mothers like me navigate through the postpartum chaos. And slowly, the idea for DearMe took shape—a space mothers could turn to for small moments of grounding, honesty, and emotional clarity.
