Parent and baby groups
Our parent and baby groups are a fun and friendly way to meet other local parents and parents to be. Some of our groups also welcome toddlers and older children. .
Come along and join us at our Bumps & Babies group for a chat, a cuppa and a play. We have a baby area and biscuits! Our Baby Caf is also available - it's a free, friendly and informal drop-in which provides trusted and personalised support, alongside evidence based information, on a range of feeding topics to help parents feed their babies in the way they want. Our trained Breastfeeding Peer Supporters will be on hand for you to offer antenatal and postnatal breastfeeding support. They are trained to support with positioning, attachment and hand expressing.
Our caf will also have the support of a qualified Breastfeeding Counsellor. They have undertaken an extensive two-year university accredited training course in counselling, listening skills and research based infant feeding knowledge. Parents attending an NCT Baby Caf will be offered the opportunity to be listened to without judgement and supported to make their own decisions.
