Mission & Vision

Guided by Purpose, Driven by Compassion

Every home, every program, and every partnership at Nana’s Nest is guided by our mission and vision which is a shared commitment to transforming lives and breaking the cycle of vulnerability.

Mission

To transform women’s lives by rebuilding confidence and empowering them to live with purpose.

Vision

Our vision is to offer vulnerable women and infants a safe, supported, and nurturing home within Nana’s Nest’s connected community that assists them to: 

  • Heal from previous challenges including homelessness, family and domestic violence, abuse, and addiction to develop self-compassion and acceptance to move forward.

  • Develop symbiotic relationships through informal mentoring to younger women from older women who in-turn gain purpose and meaning.

  • Gain confidence and competence through structured self and skill development programs.

  • Develop positive relationships and reconnect with their local community whilst maintaining continued support from their Nana’s Nest family.

We believe that when women are supported to heal and grow, entire families and communities flourish. Our work extends beyond providing a home, care and support; it’s about creating lasting pathways to independence, stability and belonging.
