Great for hiring and connecting with high-caliber working moms I’ve connected with great potential hires through HeyMama and have benefited from the programming! It’s a very thoughtful community. As a fellow community builder I know how much love, blood, tears and sweat goes into this, and have been really impressed with the team. I’d say HeyMama is really fantastic if you’re looking for a relatively large (vs niche) community, although, they do offer many opportunities to connect based on shared backgrounds and interests.

This mama was bamboozled Where do I start. In order to join Heymama.co you have to complete an application and wait for "acceptance". You have to choose a membership before you even know what you are signing up for. No where on their FAQs does it say that you have to sign up for a year long membership. I signed up in Los Angeles hoping to meet other local moms. Their dashboard is just a bunch of women advertising services. THERE ARE NO LA EVENTS. I emailed them stating I wanted to cancel and they told me no. I responded, " I would advise you to cancel my account". Then they responded, "we have cancelled your account and tried to charge me $75. The owner of this company needs to get sued. She is bamboozling people out of $465 to fund a virtual marketplace of women entrepreneurs.

The company won’t let me cancel my… The company won’t let me cancel my membership. I canceled the membership last month, but they keep charging me. And there’s another charge scheduled for next month. And they refuse to give me refund for this month, claiming that it takes 30 days to stop the charges. It’s unscrupulous and hypocritical for them to steal from a small Black woman owned business.

Great members and love the concept! I’ve met so many amazing women and formed some great business partnerships. I love the virtual offerings. I was really disappointed hearing about the behavior of someone on the leadership team. This organization is celebrating women and stands for lifting them up, instead of cutting them down based on physical attributes or because they do not fit that person’s ideal of what is “cool.” Every time I see that person’s name come up in the Google groups, I cringe. I just hate the idea of my money going to support something I can’t stand for. :/

I recently joined HeyMama a few months… I recently joined HeyMama a few months ago. I attended an event in Seaport and wasn't sure what to expect. But it was run so well and was full of great connections! I loved how at the beginning we were free to mingle, introduce ourselves to people and shop. But then to end the night with like minded woman around a circle to discuss different challenges you may be facing or accomplishments you may have achieved was so beneficial. I look forward to the many more events they put on in the future!
