TWISTIN TOTS

A PAYG session for expectant parents and new parents (with babies up to 18 months) to socialise, meet other like-minded parents, share experiences and make new friends. Parents can turn up at any point between 12 noon and 2pm - there is no obligation to stay for the entire session. (However, no hot drinks after 1.30pm - to allow for washing up!)

If parents are interested, baby signing (makaton) and a short music session may be included. Toys will be available for babies to play. As the group becomes established, it is hoped that talks from organisations such as BEARS, Belper Cloth Nappy Library (BCNL), baby frist aid and similar, and activities - hand / footprints on ceramics, photographers etc - wll also be invited along for special events.

Entrance fee includes a hot or cold drink and a biscuit. Dads, grandparents and other relatives / friends all welcome.

This is a not for profit group run by volunteers. The aim is to offer help and advice to new and expectant parents, to get parents out to socialise and combat loneliness and PND.

Breast-feeding friendly. Sensory music session inlcluded as part of entry fee. Entry fee includes unlimited hot drinks and biscuits. All welcome - expectant parents, new mums and dads, grandparents and freinds, and of course babies!
