It's my first time on stage in a musical. It's even better that there's a song with 'lactation' in the lyrics - perfect!!

Come and join us. It's opening night tonight and 4 shows to chose from.

Baby-Start is back tomorrow.
If you're planning to go to the Health Visitors drop-in (2nd & 4th Thursdays), why not see them first, then pop over to us.

The kettle will be on and we have lovely homemade flapjacks to enjoy.

Some of our older babies have recently 'graduated', with mums going back to work, so we are hoping to welcome some new faces to the group.

We are a small, friendly group, focused on parents with little ones 0 to 24 months old, or who are pregnant.

What are you doing this morning?

Nothing planned, then pop along to Baby & Me.

A friendly drop in group for parents and their little ones. Newborns to toddlers are all welcome.

Refreshments and toast included. The group is free to attend, but donations are welcome.

Sometimes it's worth stepping outside of your comfort zone.
I've joined the chorus of my favourite musical.
It's even better because one on the songs has the word 'lactating' in it xx

Happy Mothers Day everyone - I'm looking forward to doing some Lego later. It's my first ever Lego set as a grown up. At last someone has noticed I love Lego as much as they do.

Do you need a little support feeding your baby at the moment?
Everyone needs a little help sometimes, we're only human.
I'm available for home visits to support you if you're looking for 121 support.

Have you been along to one of the local Breastfeeding Support Groups?

If not, just drop me a message and I'll share where they all are, and what to expect during your visit. I'm a big champion of our free local groups, and recommend them to everyone. I can still remember my first visit to my local group when my first baby was 1 week old.

If you're looking for some support during your pregnacy, I love doing sessions on breastfeeding, infant feeding, sleep and all things newborn.
I can help cut through the confusion, focus on the bits you need to know, and support you to make your own choices.
Home visits available in North Somerset and surrounding.

I know this might be really hard to believe, but just because it's for sale on the shelves in our favourite trusted stores, it does not mean it's a safe sleep space.
If you've got questions then check out The Lullaby Trust, Baby Sleep Info Source - Basis or get in touch with me for a chat about it.

Just because it’s on the shelf doesn’t mean it’s suitable for sleep. 🤔

Baby sleep products aren’t always designed with safer sleep in mind, even if they’re marketed that way.

When it comes to your baby’s sleep space, keep it simple to keep it safe. You don’t need to buy lots of products or spend money on expensive items.

The safest place for a baby to sleep is on their back in their own clear, flat, firm sleep space.

There are just a few items that we recommend – the baby necessities:

- Cot or Moses basket
- Portable sleep space such as a travel cot, carry cot or Moses basket
- Firm, flat, waterproof mattress
- Sleeping bag or sheets and a lightweight blanket
- Room thermometer
- Car seat – this is not intended for sleeping when not travelling, but is essential for safer travel.
