Baby groups across Tyneside

Congratulations, your baby is here! You may have spent a couple of weeks finding your feet with your partner but when he goes back to work, what then? What can you do with your day, where can you head to with your  new baby?

The Birth & Baby Network brings together some fun, supportive, friendly and just fantastic baby groups across Tyneside:

Janine from Birth & Baby Basics runs a free drop-in at Kiki’s Kabin soft play on Wednesday afternoons for mums with babies and/or toddlers. It’s a great place to start – there are other mums, as well as Janine, available for support, information, reassurance and a bit of a giggle. The café serves great coffee and cake and Janine will quite happily have a baby snuggle!

Janine started this drop-in two years ago to provide an informal and supportive place for new parents to go. It is also great for second time mums who have a new baby and toddler to entertain.

Mums need other mums and this drop-in is just perfect for that!

 Why not introduce your baby to water with some beautiful , calm and fun swimming classes?
Babies can enjoy freedom of movement, relaxation and bonding while they learn greater confidence in the water.

Puddle Ducks sessions take place in hydrotherapy pools across Tyneside, so it’s nice and warm for mums and babies.

For more information or for a free trial class, please contact us on 07570834578 or email: newcastle@puddleducks.com 

These are drop in sessions, so there’s no no booking or commitment. Experienced Early Years Music leaders run the sessions and you can join in as much as you like – there’s no pressure,  you just need enjoy being with your baby!

Piccolo Music provides friendly, fun, music and song sessions for babies and young children, starting from birth upwards.

After your six week check with your GP, and when you feel ready to exercise again, the Pushy Mothers Buggy Workout is perfect for you – you can enjoy an effective and safe one-hour exercise class with no childcare concerns because you bring your baby in your buggy! And you get to meet other local mums too.

The sessions are run by Debbie, an experienced pregnancy and postnatal fitness instructor, who has been teaching Pushy Mothers classes for over 4 years helping hundreds of mums get back into shape.

Everything a baby experiences has an influence on their development, that’s why learning for babies is so important.

Baby Sensory sessions offer a complete approach to learning and development from Birth-13months. It’s a wonderful way to spend time with your baby.
