Ita saturday morning and I have thoughts.
This is me at 8am. Showered. Face mask on. Towel on my head. Looking like ive aged by about 40 years. But funnily enough this might be the most regulated I've felt all week.

So I woke up feeling really craggy. You.know what its like, whem your face is so creased, you cant tell whats skin and what's pillow. Feeling that kind of tired that lives in your bones and your face simultaneously. The kind perimenopause delivers with absolutely zero warning and zero apology.

So I cranked up the hot shower to wash away the low vibes, slapped a face mask on and made a plan. Because balance isn't something that just happens. Sometimes you have to build it yourself, brick by brick, on a Saturday morning while your skin is doing whatever this is.

This weekend is a busy one trying to juggle multiple plates. Lots of power marching back and forth between work, thank goodness for funky house and with Bass vibes!
Missing barre class because my husband is working and that's just life sometimes.
Coming home, tidying the house for the 2nd time in 16 hours. Telling the kids they are banned from downstairs for a bit and meaning every word. Losing myself completely in playlists for next week's sessions. Finishing the retreat playlist I've been building for in a few weeks~a little Movement Is Medicine magic with 22 women. Then prepping for two exciting meetings. Plus i need to make giant rockpool pebble too. And tomorrow,the very first Village Giving Circle

It is a lot. And the face mask is working on its own but it needs backup. Out come the lotions and potions. Out comes the supplements and caster oil. And then the playlists will be the extra medicine today. The music will be the thing that carries me through. Because it always is.
I talk a lot about finding alignment and balance, and I genuinely believe in it with every part of me.

But I also want you to know that some saturdays it looks like this. Craggy faced. Towel headed. Kids banned from an entire floor of the house.
Building the balance one playlist, one face mask, one power march at a time.
That's also the work. And it counts.
How's your Saturday looking?

Babes.....can i be honest with you for a second?
Some days I am fizzing. Full of energy, ideas sparking, plates spinning, feeling like I could build an underwater world AND teach three classes AND change the world before lunch.
And then on other days? I'm a bouncy castle that someone has turned the power off on.
Just slowly sinking to the ground. Going to absolute mush. No structure. No firmness. No idea how I got from there to here so fast.
And the hardest part isn't even the deflation.
It's the not knowing.

Not being able to gauge from one day to the next how I'm going to feel. How many plates I'll manage to spin. Whether today is a fizzing day or a slowly sinking to the ground day.
This is perimenopause babes.
This is postpartum for so many of you.
This is what it feels like to be a woman whose hormones are just.....MENTAL.

And its genuinely, massively unfair. In fact its total BS. No matter what chapter we're in, women are always a slave to their cycles and hormones. But here's something magic that happened yesterday.The deflated, exhausted, slowly-sinking-to-the-ground version of me, the one whose inner voice was saying climb under a blanket, stay in your joggers, you don't deserve nice things, what's the point....blah blah blah

She went and bought the outfit anyway.
The one she'd had her eye on for so long.
The one shed kept talking herself out of.
You don't feel good most of the time. You don't go anywhere. You should spend yourmoney elsewhere......That version of me, barely inflated, running on empty, she still chose herself.

And so today, the bouncy castle got blown back up again. I put that outfit on and it was like putting on a superhero cape. Lipstick on. Hair done. And a spring back in my step.

Im not telling you this because I have it figured out. I'm telling you because if you are in a season of transformation too, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopausal, hormonally hijacked, slowly deflating on a Tuesday, then heres your reminder to please choose yourself anyway. Even when the voice says you don't deserve it. Especially then!

The bounce back is coming.
And you deserve to meet it in your superhero cape.

You might think these are just baby classes.
A bit of massage. A song or two. Maybe some sensory play if you're lucky.
But you'd be wrong! This is massage woven with movement.
Story woven with rhythm.
Science woven with wonder.

Every single week we build a mino world, from the ocean floor to an enchanted forest, from a meadow full of wildflowers to the song of the sea, and we invite you and your baby to step inside it together. Because somewhere between the feeding schedules, the regressions, the milestones, the 3am feeds, and the relentless beautiful exhaustion of keeping a tiny human alive, adult life got very, very serious.

Never able to switch off, ridiculous expectations we put on ourselves or absorb from others, the constant pressure to be more, have more, show up more. And somewhere along the way, we forgot what it felt like to wonder.

So these sessions are your invitation back.
Not just for your baby.
Not just for your toddler or your preschooler.
But for you!! To step out of the relentless.
Back into the magical.
Back into your body.
Back into joy.
This is baby massage and so much more.
This is sensory and so much more.
This is music, movement and so much more.
These are classes With CoCo.
And there is a world here waiting for you both.

Come as you are. Because wonder awaits.

Come and join me tomorrow as we dive into the Wonders of the Deep. We're on the look out for anglerfish glowing in the darkness, dolphins leaping through open water, jellyfish drifting like living lanterns, octopus tucking themselves into shadows, and if we're lucky, we may spot a mermaid or two if you know where to look.

The ocean is full of the most extraordinary things, and so are your little ones.
Whether your baby is new to the world or already racing towards their next great adventure, there is a session waiting for you tomorrow:

☆ Lullaby Baby Massage ~ for your newest little sea creatures. From 8 weeks up to the sitting stage, this session will be a slow, gentle, nourishing and BEAUTIFUL journeyinto the deep blue. Exactly what you both need.

☆ Sensory Seekers ~ for your curious explorer whos at the sitting to crawling stage. Deep-sea textures, treasures, and wonder to discover with their whole beautiful body in the curiosity patch. Movement, music, cuddles, song and play the deep ocean way.

☆ Parachute & Play ~ big waves, big movement, big magic. Come for the ocean energy, stay for the joy as your toddler and preschoolers enjoy free play in the sensory rich patch, and end with regulation through songs and parachute play.

Every session is woven around the magic Curiosity Patch, where little ones get to truly discover, to touch, to move, to wonder, to be utterly delighted by the world around them.
The deep is calling. Come and see what lives there.

Spaces are limited

I cant wait to see you.

"She was so tiny. But you always made us feel so welcome!"
I read messages like this and my whole chest opens up. Because here's what I want you to know....

It doesn't matter how your pregnancy unfolded.
It doesn't matter how your birth went.
It doesn't matter if those early days looked nothing like you imagined.
There is always a space here for you!

Whether your baby arrived early and the world felt fragile and terrifying.
Whether you're a brand new mum finding your feet.
Whether your baby is older and you've been meaning to come but something kept stopping you.
Whether you tried classes before and they didn't feel right.
Whether you haven't made mum friends yet and the thought of walking into a room full of people makes your stomach flip.
Whether you're the one at the back of the group chat who never quite replies.
Whatever story has been quietly telling you "
these classes aren't for me - Ive left it too late - I don't quite fit....." I need you to hear this.....
You fit. You always did!

We started at 7 weeks here. 4 weeks premature. 3 weeks corrected. The tiniest little one. And she belonged. Her mama belonged. Just as they were, exactly as they came.

That is what this space is built for. Not the highlight reel version of new parenthood.
But the real version. Your version. Whatever chapter you're in. Come as you are.

Bring your baby, your baggage, your beautiful mess. There is an offering here to meet you wherever you're at.

So drop me a message or find the links in bio — let's find the right class for you both.

Babes, I'm taking my time back!!!

Not some of it. Not the leftover scraps at the end of the day when everyone else has had their fill. My time. Intentionally. Unapologetically.
As a peri-meno woman running businesses, raising kids, and navigating a body that's in her hormone hell era, I've decided that investing in myself is no longer optional.

Movement. Rest. Support. The things that regulate me. The things that fill me back up. The things that help me feel like myself. They're now non-negotiables, every single one.

This isn't a treat. This isnt indulgence.This is maintenance. This is essential.
This is how I stay in the game.

Reclaiming my time, my body, my energy. One non-negotiable at a time.

I've been teaching baby massage and movement for 9 years now
Nine years of tiny backs and even tinier feet.
Nine years of watching parents walk in one person and leave another.
Nine years of holding space for the most tender, terrifying, beautiful seasons of a human life.
And in all of that time, here is the one thing nobody tells you....

Baby massage isn't really about the baby.
I mean, yes it is. Of course it is. The strokes calm their nervous system. The touch builds their brain. The movement supports their digestivw system. The rhythm regulates their cortisol. The connection builds your relationship. The science is extraordinary and I will talk about it until everyone in the room has fallen asleep.

But the thing that changes everything?
Its what it does to YOU!!!!
When you slow down enough to really touch your baby with love and intention, not rushing, not multitasking, not half-scrolling while they lie there, your nervous system responds too.
Your nervous system regulates.
Your cortisol drops.
Your oxytocin rises.
Your brain gets a break.
Your body remembers that you are safe.
You're not just regulating your baby.
Your baby is regulating YOU.
And more importantly, this goes beyond the newborn early days.... this is a skill that becomes a ritual for life.

Nine years in and that still takes my breath away every single time.
Come and find out what it feels like.

What if we've had it backwards this whole time?
The world is made up of mothers and their children. And yet mothers are the least supported, least funded, least held people in our society.

From the fertility journey to the birth story. The postpartum fog to the identity shift. The first day of school to the empty nest, and every terrifying, quietly thrilling moment of reconfiguring in between.

Nobody prepares you for any of it.
Nobody holds you through it.
But here's what the science is telling us....
When a mother is regulated, her child is regulated. When she's held, her child learns what safety feels like. When she takes a moment to breathe and recalibrate, the ripples move outward. Always.

Into her child, into her home, her relationships, and her community. The world her children will one day shape. We could change society.
Not by fixing children, buy by supporting their mothers through every moment.

This is the magic we weave together.
We were never meant to do this alone.
Which season are you in right now?

Come find your space.
Come find your village.
Come find the circle that holds you.
Come find the class that breathes with you.
Come find the room where you don't have to explain yourself.
Come find the reset you didn't know you needed.
We're here. We've been waiting.

A little bit oh honesty.....Im showing up today, but barely. And mate, its not pretty!
Behind the classes, the workshops, the collaborations, the studio, the content, the emails, blah blah blah....there's a VERY perimenopausal woman trying to balance her hormones and her to-do list, be a present parent and a proactive business owner, rest her exhausted body and somehow get it stronger.

Babes, the headaches! The zero energy. The to-do list that just keeps getting longer every single day.
I want to eat well. But I need biscuits.
I want to be proactive. But my body feels like its made of lead.
And yet here we are, craving sugar and running on fumes, knowing all the things we should be doing and having absolutely zero energy to do them.
This is the real side of Chloe. Not CoCo.
Just Chloe!

The more i talk about this, the more apparent its becoming that a lot of us are sitting here right now. In that inbetween trench. Doing the best we can, with a nervous system that's doing its absolute most just to get through the day, and feeling like its just not happening.

So I thought id show up, completely imperfectly, but honestly, and with a choccy biscuit in hand. Because this trench feels hard. And if you're in it too, babes you're not alone. That's literally what we're here for.
