Who We Are

A Place Where Women Grow and Lead.

Deborah’s Cradle is a nurturing space—a cradle—where women discover their God-given purpose, are mentored in wisdom, and empowered to rise as change agents in their homes, churches, and communities.

We believe leadership begins with personal transformation—and through mentorship, training, and faith-based programs, we help women walk in purpose with confidence and grace.

Impact Stories

Real Women. Real Growth. Real Transformation.

At Deborah’s Cradle, impact is more than numbers — it’s about lives transformed, dreams awakened, and destinies restored. Every woman who walks through our doors carries a story, and every story becomes a testimony of grace, strength, and growth.

Through mentorship, leadership development, and faith-based empowerment, women are discovering who they are, unlocking new levels of purpose, and becoming catalysts for change in their communities.

"Before Deborah’s Cradle, I struggled with fear and self-doubt. Through mentorship and the Stretch Summit, I rediscovered my confidence and started leading the women’s fellowship in my church. Today, I speak boldly and help other women find their voices too."
