Hello and Καλωσήρθατε (Welcome) to MamaMeze, your new compass for navigating family life in the beautiful island of Cyprus. My name is Tammy, and I'm the heart and soul behind this vibrant community.

Moving from the bustling city of Singapore to the serene landscapes of Cyprus in December 2023 was a dream come true for my family and me. However, as an expat mother, I quickly noticed the hurdles of settling into a new country, especially when it came to finding family-oriented information and resources. That's when MamaMeze was born – a lovingly curated guide designed to simplify life for families here in Cyprus.

My journey

From South Africa's sunny beaches to the busy streets of London and Singapore, and now settling in Cyprus, my life's been one big adventure. With each move, I’ve learned something new, but becoming a mum to three amazing kids (5, 2, and 1) has been the biggest adventure of all. They keep me busy and teach me to see the world with fresh eyes every day.

I started my career as a social worker, which really sparked my desire to help others. But after having my kids and facing the all-too-common challenge of getting them to sleep, I found my new passion. This led me to become a baby sleep coach, helping parents like you and me get some much-needed rest. You can check out my work at The Sleep Goddess (www.thesleepgoddess.co).

MamaMeze is my little corner of the internet where I share everything from parenting tips to my experiences living in Cyprus, aiming to connect with other families, both expat and local. Whether you're here for a laugh, some advice, or a community that gets it, I’m here to share what I’ve learned and make this journey a bit easier for all of us.
