Welcome to the New Zealand Multiple Birth Association

The New Zealand Multiple Birth Association Incorporated is the national body representing 21 local Multiple Birth clubs consisting of over 1400 families throughout New Zealand. There are over 900 sets of twins and 9 sets of triplets born in New Zealand each year (from the 2008 census) and we aim to provide education and support to those families through providing guidance and resources to their local multiple birth club.
Our objectives and how we meet them include:
- Providing information and advice to any individual directly involved with the care, raising and well being of a multiple birth through resources about issues relating specifically to raising multiples.
- Providing a communication medium for existing clubs for parents of multiple birth children through a website, quarterly newsletter and annual conference.
- Providing advocacy for national issues that face multiples and their families in the areas including social, health and education needs.
If you are expecting, or raising multiples, the NZMBA can help you.
