We allow a max of: 12 people in our Active Antenatal classes, but on average it's 6-8. 12 people (up to 6 pairs) in our Active Birth Workshop, but on average it's 6-8. 10 people in our Baby Massage or Baby Yoga classes, but on average it’s 6-8 We keep our group sizes small, so there’s enough time to connect, ask questions and get to know each other.

The ticket price allows for two people.

There is plenty of parking for the full class in front of the building.

There is a small reception area as you enter the building where prams can be stored safely.

If your baby is happy for you to continue the massage while they are sleeping you can try that. Alternatively, I bring along to every class two or three spare dolls so that if your little one is sleeping and you would like to continue you can practice the routines on the dolls. Also, if you prefer to enjoy some hands off time and relax you can still soak up the education and try again back at home.

At my Nurturing Mummy and Baby classes it is a baby led environment so all noises are welcomed and perfectly natural. Please don’t worry. We also have some techniques that we use in class to help baby relax and feel at ease. Also, I always suggest to mums to bring along any soothers or blankets of toys that has your littles ones familiar smell on. This can be a great comfort to your little one in an unfamiliar space.

Yes, of course. This is a baby led environment so if baby is hungry and needs to feed or if baby is tired and needs to sleep please feel free to do as you would if at home.

In my baby classes I have a changing station set up in the room so that you don’t have to leave and miss any of the class content. The changing station includes a changing mat, wipes and nappy bags. All you need is a nappy. Everything is cleaned and sterilised after each session.

For Baby Massage this class is just for the fourth trimester mum and baby. In Baby Yoga any caregiver can attend the class with baby.

The Active Antenatal classes are just for the pregnant person/ mum to be due to the way the class content has been designed. We try to create a safe space for mum to be to feel free to express her needs, wants and concerns. However, we do offer other workshops such as the Active Birth Workshop and The Parent Course where birth partner can also attend.

All equipment is provided for your comfort including cushions, blankets, yoga blocks and yoga mats. All you need to bring is a bottle of water.

The Active Antenatal classes are from 14 weeks pregnant all the way up to giving birth. The Active Birth Workshop and The Parent Course are from around 28 weeks pregnant but if you are eager to start sooner we will try to accommodate you.

The class is mat based so comfy clothes are always best.

The Weekly Active Antenatal Classes are for expectant mums only and suitable to attend from 14 weeks up until baby’s birth.

Classes can be adapted to suit all pregnancy related conditions and birth choices. Therefore, they are suitable for everyone, regardless of whether this is your first or your fifth baby.

Classes are booked in blocks of 6 weeks at a time, however they are designed to support you throughout your pregnancy, right up until baby’s birth. We recommend continued attendance if possible, for maximum benefit; although one block of 6 weeks will give you the tools required for birth.
