A unique and transformative summer experience where mothers and children (ages 6–10) bond, learn together, and explore the rich beauty of Turkey. This all-inclusive family programme combines English language education for children, relaxation and personal growth for mothers, and shared cultural adventures that create lasting memories and strengthen family connections.

It's the perfect summer getaway for mothers seeking quality time with their children while enjoying well-deserved relaxation and personal care.
The programme is hosted at a certified residential campus in Bursa, Turkey—a city rich in history, culture, and natural beauty. Bursa is an ancient city that once served as the capital of the Ottoman Empire, and today it remains a UNESCO World Heritage Site with remarkable landmarks, vibrant traditions, and warm hospitality.

Creative expression and storytelling
By week's end, children gain confidence in speaking, listening, reading, and writing English, and develop an understanding of English as a tool for communication and exploration.

Perfect Balance for Everyone
Traditional family holidays often compromise – either parents sacrifice their relaxation for kids' activities, or kids sit through adult-focused tourism. Mom'n Me solves this by designing a programme where everyone's needs are met:
Children gain practical English skills in an engaging, fun environment
Mothers enjoy spa, wellness, and personal time
Families share adventures and bonding experiences together
No one feels left out or rushed
More Than a Language Programme
While English education is central, this is fundamentally a family wellness and cultural experience. Children learn English through living it—through games, excursions, interactions, and real-world contexts. Mothers rejuvenate through spa and leisure. Families bond through shared adventures exploring Turkey's wonders.
Create Lasting Memories
Experiences like hot air balloons over Cappadocia, exploring Istanbul's historic sites, swimming in Turkish pools, creating art together, and sharing traditional Turkish meals become stories families tell for decades.
