These are supportive community minded sessions designed to nurture the physical and emotional wellbeing of new mums and their babies, suitable from birth until baby is crawling.
Our teachings are safe for all ages and stages of mum and baby within this time frame.
These baby-led sessions emphasise bonding through yoga, mindfulness, self-care, tools for promoting health development for baby, and relaxation techniques for both mum and baby, to assist mothers to navigate the challenges of postnatal recovery.
Supportive, empowering and inclusive sessions to help you embrace the transformations that come alongside becoming a mother.
"Mummy and Baby Yoga is great, it is helping me to bond with baby and learning new techniques.
Nicky is so friendly and welcoming, she encourages a safe and open space to be yourself and share your stories and journeys." - Katie
Becoming a mother is a deeply transformative experience, often with many joys and challenges. Through these sessions I am to help you navigate this time with tools and practices which will be helpful physically, emotionally and mentally while creating a space where you can feel supported and empowered.
Absolutely no yoga experience is required.
All movement will be gentle and explained and demonstrated to you during the session.
A mat, cushion and refreshments will be provided.
All you need to bring along please is a blanket for your baby to lay on, anything else your baby may need such as nappy change materials, age appropriate toy and feeding items.
Mums should simply wear comfortable clothes you can easily move in.
These baby-led sessions will include:
Stretches for mum and baby - centred on core and pelvic floor strengthening for mum, and developing balance and motor development for baby.
Keeping calm with the breath - focussed on anxiety reduction and nervous system regulation.
Inspiring adventure and confidence for mum and for baby.
Bonding - through shared movement, sounds (singing/humming/music) and touch (massage).
Socialisation - for mum and baby.
Uninterrupted time together - to improve bonding and communication between mum and baby.
A supportive space - to share, be seen and heard by others who are also navigating these early days of motherhood.
Soothing mini sound bath relaxation* for you and baby at the end The sessions will be fun, informal, interactive and will include free refreshments at the end of the class with an opportunity to chat and foster community, maybe you'll find your 'mum tribe' here.
