Groups are a fantastic opportunity to meet other new mums/dads/carers and get some much needed sympathy from other people who have been up five times in the night.
What’s on offer?
Most groups offer a cup of tea, there are sometimes talks about baby related issues and you will often be offered the opportunity to have your baby weighed.
Nervous / shy?
If you are a new mum/dad and you would like to go to one of these groups but are too nervous to go on your own, why not send us an email and we will try and put you in touch with another person that goes to that group.
