There are so many groups on offer at our centre, but who are they aimed at and what do they involve? 

• First Time parents - This fun and lively group is open to first time parents with babies under 12 months and parents-to-be. The group encourages parents to engage in messy play activities, story time and song time. A Health Visitor will be available to provide advice and support on breast and Infant feeding, and a separate room is available for mums with older children. The group provides a great opportunity to chat and meet with other new parents and babies, and can help to reduce isolation among first time families. No need to book.
