Nurtures Mums talking Group - Tuesdays 2-3.30pm

I am delighted to share with you the beginnings of a new group at nurture, one which I hope will become a part of our week here for a long time to come. Nurture is now holding a lovely weekly get together for mummies, with their babes in arms. Come to talk, support, meet other mums, and partake in tea drinking and biscuit eating of course. This weekly meeting for mothers and their babies takes place every Tuesday afternoon from 2.00-3.30pm at the Nurture Studio. Talking may sound like a luxury for a mother. But it isn't. Talking affirms the importance of what we are doing as mothers. Few jobs other than motherhood leave us so alone, so unsupported, and with so much responsibility. As mothers we face all kinds of decisions, no matter how unprepared and inexperienced we may be. Relationships with family, friends and colleagues may also change. It is heartwarming to discover, by talking, how much we all share as mums. Mothers Talking is not like a casual chat among friends. Its structure encourages discussion. Babies enjoy these meetings too! There is no age limit for them (I'll let you use your own discretion as to what you think would distract from the group) and both breast and bottle fed babies are welcome. Our group begins on Tuesday 7th February 2012 There is a contribution of £4/week for each mummy and baby (biscuits & cakes welcome as part payment!) Please drop me an email to let me know you may be coming Look forward to seeing you there, Best Wishes, Sian

I am delighted to let you all know that our wonderful Lazy Daisy Birthing classes are now running in Netherlee, Fitzroy Place, and soon to be Kilmarnock & Prestwick.
I am so excited to be able to bring this unique class to you.
Daisy Birthing is a gentle relaxed - active birthing concept created by the Lazy Daisy team. Tried and tested since 2004, our weekly class programme really works, helping you to enjoy every step of your pregnancy whilst looking forward to a positive birth.

Combining gentle yoga inspired moves, many of which are unique to Lazy Daisy, alongside breath work, relaxations, and self hypnosis techniques, our classes give weekly relief and long term birth benefits.

We ease the physical body during pregnancy and in labour, strengthen the emotional mind as you look forward with excitement, reassure the nervous mum with our FEDANT approved teachers and ultimately provide helpful 'easy to follow and understand' natural birth education.

All this for just £9 per week...the best investment you can make for your body, your birth and your baby. Are you ready to bloom in pregnancy and blossom in birth?

If you want to be guided through a lyrical journey of calming music, white noise, babbling brooks, gentle wind chimes, gurgling babies and beautiful relaxtion music, this is the right baby class for you!

If you want to learn soothing baby massage, baby stretch AND enjoy gentle postnatal closing movements for you, this is the baby class to choose!

If you are struggling with Colic, Reflux, periods of inconsolable crying, problems getting baby to sleep alone or on their back .... like so many mums, this is the baby class to choose!

If your baby is between the age of 6 weeks and 24 weeks and you want to find ways of spending quality time together, learning baby yoga and baby massage, meeting other mums and sharing knowledge with experienced teachers, this is the baby class to choose!

What are we?

Daisy Baby is a 6-18 week progressive 'first step' programme for life with your new baby.  It combines our much loved baby massage routines, with soft movements and relaxations for mum, anxiety releasing exercises to help with new mum jitters, soft stretches and sensory stimulation for baby, alongside vital education to help you understand the 4^th trimester and make the most of these early days with your baby.

By delivering key facts about swaddling, sleep, colic, overstimulation, sling wearing, mums wellbeing, postnatal anxieties, all in a friendly and intimate group surrounding, mums feel more empowered, more energised and ready to face the world!

Our teachers come from a variety of backgrounds professionally but are all mums, so can talk firsthand about their experiences of brining up baby!  All are fully trained.

But what makes us truly different, is that this Tinies class is set to our own beautiful 1hr 30minute backing track, especially written and produced by local composer and production company, to enable you to flow from segment to segment, enjoying lyrical cuddle time when baby isn't in the mood to participate.

Key Features

• Our teaches are fully trained in IPTI approved infant massage, movement for baby plus having a variety of specialisms such as 'sleep consultant' and 'baby wearing consultant'
• We're accessible for all mums, not just the mums and babies suffering with colic!
• We're fun ..... Our learning is serious yes, but our class is relaxing, refreshing and friendly
• We provide a community of like minded mums all wanting to talk about the positives of bringing up baby and celebrating all choices (all types of feeding, nappies, parenting attitudes are MOST WELCOME).
• We‚'re affordable with this combined education costing just £9 per week
• Once baby has completed this course, or for mums finding us later into the first year with their baby, we highly recommend our Stage 2 (wigglers) module ..... where infant massage is replaced by baby yoga and sensory work for the developing baby.
