Another lovely week ahead, with World Book Day & St David's Day as the theme for the Piplings and Pips Play crews - expect to see some lovely bilingual books to explore 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿📖

You are very welcome to dress up but there is no pressure to at all - the true meaning of World Book Day is to inspire and share in our love of reading, so please do bring along a favourite book to show the group though so that we can inspire some new reads!

The Pips Baby Massage group will be enjoying some soothing face, leg, foot and tummy massage this week - my new group have lots of tummy troubles, so we are finding all of those sweet spots to support them 💛

Tonight I get to welcome my March Pip'nobirthing mums to be along to classes - I am really looking forward to enjoy cosy cuppas and birth chat with everyone.

And the Little Pips Cuppa Club will be on this Friday, so pop along for a natter and rest anytime between 10am - 11.30am, no need to book.

🍁 Little Tree Huggers will now return the following week - sadly, we are going to be saying goodbye to our much loved 17 year old family pet later this week, and I just need a few days with her before we do, as I'm sure you will understand 💔

You and your little people are the perfect tonic for tough times, and I'm looking forward to another week of making memories with you all xx

Today was such a busy, wonderful day at Little Pips!

Last year I won the "Business at the Heart of the Community" at the Monmouthshire Volunteer Awards, and today I had some lovely visitors from GAVO to see the Little Pips Cuppa Club in action and to see how I can access further support and funding opportunities - they were blown away by what a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere there was, and it was wonderful to see so many mums and dads chatting away!

A huge thank you to for coming along to create beautiful Mother's Day pottery - your stunning pieces will be being delivered back to me in two weeks ready for you to collect 🥰

THANK YOU to my lovely friend Bernie who gave up her morning to come and make the teas and coffees so I could chat to everyone!

And then this afternoon, I launched the new Friday Pips Play Toddler class, and we had the sweetest afternoon celebrating pancake day 🥞 I noticed straight away that this group are firmly in their transporting schema era, so I'm thinking of lots of fabulous activities to indulge this in next weeks theme!

Thank you for spending your Friday with me, have a lovely weekend 💛

Did you know that every activity in my Tummy Time, Piplings, Pips Play and Little Tree Huggers classes are Paediatric OT Approved, and I have undertaken training in baby massage, baby yoga and tummy time to support little ones with additional needs?

You're in safe hands with me 💛

What a lush couple of days welcoming 20 Piplings to the new term! We enjoyed singing, stretching, tummy time, and scarf play, before having a good natter during the free play time whilst exploring Pancake Day themed messy and non messy play - oobleck made for the perfect taste safe "batter" and encouraged lots of splashing, tipping, pouring, and mark making!

So much fun! xx

For many of you coming along to sessions next week, it might be the first class you've attended with your little one. You might be feeling anxious about what to bring, worrying about getting here on time, and driving yourself crazy thinking about all of the things that could possibly go wrong in class...

Now, take a breath, you wonderful soul ✨️

There are no expectations here. Of you, of your baby, of me, or of anything else.

Come as you are. Perfectly imperfect.

Come in your pjs if getting dressed feels like too much.

Give yourself permission to simply snuggle and watch if your little one is sleepy, needs feeding, or simply isn't feeling like a massage.

Know that if they cry, that's ok - babies cry, and all sounds are welcome here.

If you're in a sweet spot and loving this stage of parenting, my goodness will we celebrate that with you. And if you're not, we will hold that gentle space for you, too. There is room for every emotion and every journey here.

So as you head to bed the night before your first class, know that you're going to be just fine.

You've got this, and I'm right beside you.

It's not too late to join us if you've been worrying about these things - there are 4 spaces left for Pips Baby Massage on Tuesday from 10am - 11am for little ones aged from around 6 weeks to crawling. Come and be nurtured 💛

Half term is almost over, and I've been busy planning some super lovely sessions to lead us up to Easter 🥰

There is a reason why my Monday Pips Play Toddler group is consistently fully booked, and it's because it's so much fun and everyone rebooks! ❤️

So I have added a Friday afternoon group as a trial for the next 4 week term beginning on Friday 27th February - there are 4️⃣ spaces left for the Friday Pips Play Toddlers term from 12.30pm - 1.30pm, at Portskewett and Sudbrook Recreation Hall. Suitable for little ones aged 1 - 3 years, these are welcoming developmental play classes combining a blend of messy play, crafts, singing, movement, and parachute fun, all OT approved activities carefully put together to support your little one's development.

I would LOVE to welcome you along! Last remaining spaces can be booked at www.littlepips.org/book-online xx
