About Us

Family Matters Switzerland is a part of the International Community Fair Verein. Since 1994, Family Matters Switzerland (formerly Mothering Matters) has been providing parenting information, in English, for families in Switzerland. It emerged from the La Leche League as a newsletter, and quickly grew to become a print journal for a wider audience. Since 2013, Family Matters Switzerland has been online, run by a team of dedicated volunteers and remains not-for-profit; advertising and sponsorship contribute to the running costs and the charitable organisations we support.
