Our Why
BAMM was created with community in mind. Our goal is to bring military moms and resources together in one location. Sharing our experiences and knowledge with each other in a present, uplifting, and real way, strengthens us across borders and across branches.
We partner with local businesses and service providers to tailor-fit opportunities for you to connect with an audience of women who could benefit from your offerings.
Being in the military comes with its perks, and also it’s challenges. Here are the hard facts of the military mother population.
Married military couples move an average of 8.6 times in 20 years of marriage, which is about normal for military life and more than twice as high as the civilian rate of moves.
The average length of enlistment for U.S. military personnel is just under 15 years for all branches. For officers is 11 years. The U.S. Air Force has an average enlistment time of 14.7 years. Those who sign up for active duty enlist for an average of two to six years, depending upon the service branch.
The US active duty military now collectively has over 1.9 million family members.
Our forum creates a safe space for military moms to share their stories, connect with each other, and learn from those that have walked the same path.
Marriage, relationships, kids, all come with challenges no matter who you are. But, let’s be honest, being a member of the military community comes with some unique challenges. Explore how other women are jugging, struggling, and managing in these areas. Pick up some practical solutions and resources too!

One of the hardest things for a mom to do is to be away from their children for any length of time. Being a service member and a mom brings some very special challenges that heighten mom guilt, worry, and stress. Not only is it great to talk to moms who have survived the experience but it is also nice to know what resources, and tools were used to overcome the challenges of being a deployed mom.
