Solo, but not alone
Solo mums are made of something special. You lead with love, make every decision with intention, and show up with strength every single day. At European Sperm Bank, we admire that strength – and we believe every solo journey deserves meaningful support.
That’s why we’ve partnered with the SMBC app: to help you connect with other single mothers by choice who understand your path.
Because being a solo mum isn’t about doing it alone – it’s about choosing to become a mother, following your longing for a child, and having the strength to make it happen on your own. You deserve a space where your choices are honoured, your story is seen, and your community is by your side.
Meet Melanie – the heart behind the SMBC app
Melanie Balasopulos is the founder of the SMBC app. As a single mother by choice, she found herself longing for conversations with others who truly understood her journey - without needing to explain. So she created a safe, supportive and non-judgmental network just for solo mums. And now it’s yours, too.
Want to hear more from solo mums like you?
Sometimes the most helpful thing is simply hearing how others have done it. In our free webinar, two solo mums talk openly about their experiences. From making the decision to become a single mother by choice to navigating everyday life with a little one. It’s real talk from real women just like you.
