Motherhood, while endlessly rewarding, can often feel like a role that goes unrecognized. They are the ones donning the role of ‘silent caregivers’. From late-night diaper changes to making lunches for them early in the morning – for the mothers, it is no walk in the park.

When is Mother’s Day celebrated?

In 2025, Mother’s Day will be celebrated on Sunday, May 11, in most countries, and it is always celebrated on the second Sunday of May. So the date for Mother’s Day changes every year based on the Sunday.

The tradition dates back to 1908, when American activist Anna Jarvis, inspired by her mother's humanitarian work, organised the first Mother's Day celebration. In 1914, US President Woodrow Wilson officially declared the second Sunday of May as Mother's Day - a day dedicated to expressing gratitude to mothers everywhere.
