To be a significant reference for the well-being of families in Sherbrooke and the surrounding area, following childbirth.
Vision
By offering free respite services in families’ homes, Marraine Tendresse de l’Estrie’s mission is to support parents and to enhance the experience of parenthood following the birth of a child. Caring volunteers provide support to parents, so they can have a fulfilling experience during the many changes associated with welcoming a newborn, and so they can develop an attachment bond with confidence and assurance.

I was fortunate enough to meet two sponsors, and I was really impressed: they are extraordinary, loving, gentle, and generous women. I greatly appreciated their support, especially as they made no judgments on me or my approach.
