Hayati was born from a deeply personal journey.

Eighteen months ago, I gave birth to my first child. Like many new mothers, I was filled with love — and also with exhaustion, overwhelm, and the quiet realization that I couldn’t do it all alone.

Finding help wasn’t easy. I quickly learned what so many of us already know but rarely say out loud: it truly takes a village to raise a family. And yet, that village — especially one rooted in our Islamic values — felt missing.

In Arabic, Hayati means “my life.” It’s an expression we lovingly use for those closest to us — especially our children. You are my life. My heart. My everything.

Islam teaches us that we’re not meant to raise children in isolation. Our tradition emphasizes mercy, community, and collective care. I envisioned a space where women, families, and children could be supported through that lens — where trust, shared values, and intention guide every connection.

Hayati is that vision in motion:
A growing network for Muslim families and caregivers — built on love, trust, and the belief that care is not a transaction, but a sacred responsibility.

We’re still in our early stages, building slowly and intentionally. But if you’re here, you’re already part of this village.
