About Katherine:
For as long as I can remember I have wanted to look after babies. I had a nanny job in my gap year & had a place at Great Ormond Street Hospital to train as a Paediatric Nurse before my friends had any idea what they wanted to do! On qualifying, I worked at Great Ormond Street before moving to Paediatric Accident & Emergency at a London hospital where I continue to work. I have been in the NHS nearly 3 decades!I have had various Paediatric Nursing roles, as a Registered Health Visitor in the community & hospital & in 2006, I trained to be a Certified Infant Massage Instructor. I was blown away by the benefits for parents and babies. The classes have been such a special part of my work supporting parents ever since. Back in 2006, while working as a Paediatric Nurse, Health Visitor in London, I recognised the need for a relaxed and friendly service to address common parental concerns & Baby Steps was born. Offering courses in Baby & Child First Aid, Weaning, Baby Massage & Relaxation. My mission remains the same 'To give reassurance and confidence to a parent and baby everyday'. I feel I have the best job in the world.

I am Mummy to Isabella and William, which makes everyday magic....and full on! Being a parent has exceeded all I could have wished for but it is also harder than I could have imagined!! I’ve been there……

After running Baby Steps in London for 13 years, we moved to Hampshire. Here I have a beautiful studio in the woods which offers a calm cocoon for new parents and babies. And now with online too, I can help even more families. I can not wait to support you and your little one,

A little reminder of how loved you are on Valentine's Day 🥰

13/02/2026

We finished Baby Massage & Relaxation the best way we know how…
with keepsakes, gratitude… and or those who could make it.....a pub lunch together 🤍

As we sat in the studio sharing what the course had meant, it felt a bit magic.

One mum said:
✨ “It’s reminded me to take deep breaths and do something for myself — and that that’s ok.”

One mum smiled and shared:
✨ “He looks at me… and copies my breathing.”
And how that simple tool has helped calm them both — even helping with sleep.

A second-time mum said how much she’d cherished the 1:1 time:
✨ “At home it’s chaos. This has just been ours.”

Another said:
✨ “It’s been my safe space to be able to say…”

She spoke about loving her much-wanted baby deeply, while grieving her own mum who died two years ago - and how hard that is.

Others talked about:
✨ Tools for tummy troubles and teething
✨ Feeling more confident with tummy time
✨ Having something lovely to do together on grey winter days

Two parents even discovered they live on the same road - and had never met before.

And they all agreed on one thing:
💛 “Tuesdays became my favourite day.”

That’s what grows here at Baby Steps Studio:

Not just massage strokes.
Not just techniques.

But calm.
Connection.
Confidence.
Community.

Blankets. Cushions. Deep breaths.
Babies calming as mums exhale.
Honest conversations.

Our next 5-week Baby Massage & Relaxation course starts:

📅 Tuesday 24th February
⏰ 10.30–12 noon
📍 The cosy studio in the woods with easy parking and
💬 WhatsApp group included
🍽 Pub lunch together on the final week

No pressure - just a relaxed evening to discover Arbonne with my lovely friend Jessica Manning, and we’d love you to join us for drinks, real conversation and a peek behind the scenes of something that’s changed my life.

Alongside Baby Steps & my shifts, Arbonne has given me freedom and flexibility, allowed me to support women at every stage of life, and plugged me into the most supportive, uplifting community of women who truly lift each other up 🤍

Yes, Arbonne has beautiful, natural, vegan products 🌿�Yes, it’s B Corp certified 🌍�But the best bit?

‼️ Be wary of following the trend & putting washing capsules & dishwasher tablets in pretty glass jars 🫙

Here are exceptional pre and postnatal health professionals together for an amazing networking event arranged by - and honestly, it was so inspiring. 💛

So much experience. So much knowledge. And every single person there shared the same intention:
to truly support parents and babies, not overwhelm them.

In a world where parents are flooded with conflicting advice, it felt incredibly reassuring to connect with professionals who value evidence, compassion and collaboration over trends.

I feel really grateful to be part of a community where I can confidently say,
“If I’m not the right person for you - I know exactly who is.”

Because parents don’t need more noise.
They need trusted, experienced humans working together

Massive thanks to for arranging such a brilliant event ✨

💨 Cold weather + teething = sore baby skin ❄️

If your baby is teething, you’ll probably notice their cheeks, chin and even neck are constantly damp from drool. Add cold temperatures and winter wind, and that delicate skin can quickly become red, sore and chapped.

✨ Prevention really is key here.

One of my top tips (from years as a paediatric nurse and a mum):
👉 Apply a natural barrier cream while your baby is fast asleep.
That way it actually stays on, has time to work, and isn’t immediately rubbed off by busy little hands.

I personally recommend:
• ABC Arbonne Baby Nappy Cream – creates a gentle waterproof barrier and contains aloe vera, chamomile, vitamin E and sunflower oil to soothe and protect https://www.arbonne.com/gb/en/arb/katherinewhitby/shop-all/body-%26-hair-care/abc-arbonne-baby-care%c2%ae-nappy-cream/p/853%20UK
• Neal’s Yard Baby Balm – beautifully nourishing and calming for sensitive skin https://uk.nyrorganic.com/shop/babysteps/product/1655/baby-balm-50g/?a=12&cat=0&search=baby%20balm

Because both are natural, you don’t need to worry if a little gets onto hands or fingers (which inevitably end up in mouths!).

🍼 A small layer at nap or bedtime can make a big difference.

Both are available from the Studio or delivered to your home.

I saw this in A&E … and it scared me. Parents are trusting a ROBOT over doctors. AI advice is causing real panic. Chat GPT is fuelling parental anxiety to the point they are challenging highly experienced medical professionals! Please trust your instincts & seek the support you need from trusted experienced health professionals

“Never has the noise around weaning been louder…” 🔊😵‍💫
So let’s quiet it — together 🤍

Weaning without Worry™
🗓 Monday 9th Feb
⏰ 10am–12.30
👶 Babies welcome

Why this course will give you confidence 👇

Because Weaning & First Aid are inseparable.
If you’re worrying about choking, it’s almost impossible to relax at mealtimes.

In this course we gently and clearly cover:
✨ Gagging vs choking – and what’s normal
✨ What to do if your baby does choke
✨ Allergies – when to introduce foods & when to seek help
✨ So you feel reassured, not on edge

You’ll also receive step-by-step weaning guidance, including:
🥄 Textures from purées to finger foods
🍽 Using family food (no separate baby meals)
⏱ Time-saving hacks for real life
🕰 When & how to introduce meals & foods
🦷 Teething, cups & weaning equipment
🛒 Shop-bought baby food – how to choose wisely
🧺 Your essential Weaning Kit & more…

This isn’t about rules or pressure.
It’s about clarity, confidence and calm.

I’ve supported families for over 20 years with my Weaning without Worry approach - and yes, I’ve weaned my own babies too 🤍

💬 Support goes beyond the course
You can contact me with questions along your weaning journey, so you’re never left second-guessing yourself.

This support helps you:
✨ Relax
✨ Enjoy weaning your baby
✨ Create happy, healthy mealtimes

📍 Studio-based | relaxed & supportive and cosy! Easy parking

I would love to support you, £45pp or £80 per couple
