What parents have to say:
“Unlike many baby groups, space has been made to share the difficulties of life as a mother / parent and as a result strong bonds have been forged with the other Mums and children who attend. This has been invaluable to me.
Alex and Harry are brilliant, funny and creative facilitators who sensitively balance so many different qualities in order to nurture, entertain, support and lift us all up.
There has always been a focus on positives as well, with gentle reminders of the little ways we can implement self-care in order to look after ourselves, and as a result look after our children even better.”
“It’s easy to attend sessions for baby’s sake, playing with pretty things and letting them explore, but it’s rare to find somewhere you can connect on a deeper level with other parents, but also facilitators of the group, developing genuine friendships whilst watching your children grow together. Something that started out as a creative but wacky improvised activity, became a structured and therapeutic world that really centred around the wellbeing of parents. The facilitators really listened to the needs of everyone that attended. They read between the lines and paved the way for us to build a group that became the support we craved.”
