"Team Mom's" are also known as NEMOs (Non-Engineering Mentor Organization) and include "Team Dad's" as well! NEMOs are the second half of team mentors - one half typically deals with the engineering/technical aspects and the other half deals with all the other tasks that support a team... and in small teams they may be the same person!
