*This is on every Monday apart from Bank Holidays**

Being a new parent is amazing, exciting, life-changing … but it’s also really hard work. One day you feel on top of the world; the next day you feel pretty lonely and a bit cr@p. That’s why The Nest has launched a set of Real Parenting Clubs – to help parents connect, make friends, share giggles and support each other through the tricky bits.

BABBA Club is specifically for parents or carers with newborns to crawlers. It’s an informal drop-in from 10.00-11.30 every Monday morning. There’ll be toys out for them to play with, a cuppa and lots of friendly folk for you to chat with, and a sing-song or two. This group is about taking time to connect with other parents and babbas in a friendly, no-rush environment.

Babba Club costs £2.50 per parent – just pay on the day and this includes a cuppa

[BABBA Club is one of three ‘Real Parenting Clubs’ launched by The Nest in 2017 – to help parents connect, make friends, share giggles and support each other through the tricky bits. Before BABBA Club there’s BUMP Club, and afterwards there’s TODDLE Club].

*This is on every Monday apart from Bank Holidays*

TODDLE Club is specifically for parents or carers with little ones aged around 12m – 2.5 yrs. It’s an informal drop-in from 12.30 – 2.00 every Monday afternoon. There’ll be toys and crafts for them, and a cuppa and lots of friendly faces for you. There’ll be some structured play or crafting to keep them entertained, and encourage them to interact, but there will also be plenty of time for you to chat with each other, share experiences, and enjoy a rare spot of adult conversation!

Cost is £2.50 per parent – just pay on the day:)

Baby Signing is a wonderful way to communicate with your baby. In this class, we cover baby signing with elements of hands-on sensory activities, nursery rhymes, and action songs, musical instruments, bubbles, toys etc, creating a fun and exciting experience for you and your baby.

Baby signing bridges the communication gap – aiding babies to show their parents what they want/need before they can talk!
Early language development and understanding also encourages early speech as the signs are always said at the same time.

This class is ideal for babies aged 4 -18 months.

​ Benefits:
​
​* Empowers babies to communicate earlier
* Enhances the child-parent/carer understanding and bond.
* Complements language skills
* Reduces frustration
* Boosts self-esteem and self-confidence
* Enhances early vocabulary and understanding
​
Baby Nurture teach basic BSL (British Sign language), as this is a widely used & recognised language. Combining the benefits of music, sensory activities and signs. We teach you and your child basic signs such as “milk”, “eat”, “all gone”, and so much more, covering a variety of everyday topics.
​

Baby Yoga is a wonderful bonding experience for parent and baby, and encourages precious one-to-one time.
Baby Yoga can support the development of balance and coordination, by working both sides of the brain which in turn encourages development of coordination, balance and memory.
Yoga exercises can help babies relax, therefore promoting better sleep patterns. It can also help relieve colic, trapped wind and constipation by supporting and regulating the digestive system.
Baby Yoga is great for maintaining a baby’s’ flexibility and strengthening their joints, by carrying out the gentle exercises and poses, but always working with babies own resistance and flexibility.
​
​
Baby Nurture Yoga classes will teach you a different yoga breathing exercise and gentle exercises/stretches each week, before moving on to the baby exercises, focusing on a different body area each week: the legs, hips chest & arms, parent & baby exercises, yoga holds & poses.

A fun, free, informal get-together held on the first Monday of each month, 7-9pm. This event is for mums-to-be and their partners, close friends or families – whoever is by your side for the pregnancy journey! The idea is to surround yourself with friendly faces and just the right amount of information to make your 9-months go as smoothly as possible.

BUMP Club is a chance to meet other mums-to-be, and to create friendships that will be invaluable once baby arrives. Each month we will invite a few people to come and talk about support that’s available locally – from hospital maternity services, to private antenatal classes – even pregnancy pilates teachers to tell you how to look after yourselves.  We’ll also have a few new mums around to chat to you about ‘the realities’ of pregnancy, birth and early parenthood. We want you to have the ‘real conversations’ that are important to you creating the pregnancy and birth experience that’s right for you. There are no stupid questions, and there is defeinitely no judgement – whatever choices you make have to be right for you and your family.

BUMP Club is totally free – but the coffee machine will be on and there’ll be tasty cake to enjoy if you’re feeling peckish! Please pop an email to di@thenestlowfell.com if you’re planning to join us x
