Huge congratulations to my yogis raising over £350 for Children in Need. If we teach our children anything it should be kindness. Incredibly lucky to have such wonderful parents in our community. Thank you. 🙏🏻

Are you looking for a toddler class which will:

💚 Improve mobility
💚 Improve core strength
💚 Improve balance
💚 Improve coordination
💚 Improve motor skills
💚 Build confidence
💚 Promote independence
💚 Aid digestion
💚 Promote better sleep
💚 Aid cognitive (brain) development
💚 Improving memory
💚 Improving listening
💚 Improving communication skills
💚 Bonding with child
💚 Socialisation of child

The exciting world of toddler yoga is from approx 14 months to 4 years. This is a highly interactive class for both toddler and parent/guardian as you are taken through adventure based, story led, and themed classes using rhymes, songs, music, yoga poses, physical movement and routines plus visual and sensory aids to engage your toddler and aid their development.

Classes are designed to be fun and highly interactive for both parent/guardian and child whilst incorporating EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) framework to aid development. Parents/guardians often enjoy them as much as the child! We encourage your child to express themselves using their bodies, engage in stretches and copy yoga poses. The class is well known for building self esteem and confidence whilst developing skills like listening, talking, counting, recognising colours and objects, taking turns and teamwork.

We introduce toddlers and pre-schoolers to breathing techniques early on, this helps develop their growing lungs and also with early breath control and calming techiniques. We use props such as windmills, silk scarfs and bubbles to encourage your child in this much loved activity. Children are delighted blowing their first bubbles!

As part of our classes we always promote mindfulness and relaxation and try our best to incorporate a period of time where everything is calm and peaceful. You'd be surprised how quickly our toddlers start to recognise the calming down time towards the end of a class and enjoy listening to a story, or colouring in or doing some simple crafts relevant to the adventure or theme we just had. This is an integral part of our yoga session as it teaches your child how to change their energy levels and be calm after the activities before.

𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐌𝐀𝐒 𝐒𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄 🎄❤️

For those who are feeling stressed about this Christmas - you don’t need to over think it. Children enjoy the simple pleasures in life… your 100% attention, playing with them, baking together, playing in the snow, watching a Christmas film with a hot choc. Keep it simple 🎄

Not sure who to credit as this post has surfaced on several pages but as it’s about sentiment not sales I’m hopeful the creator won’t mind me sharing 🙏🏻

Any simple pleasures who enjoy as a family? Please share them below 🥰

SUMMER 2024! That’s when this photo was taken and we posted that…

𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿 💪

We put our head together that day coming with ideas how to better support our perinatal community, something we are both really passionate about 💗

We announced we were going to be spending more time trying to strengthen our working relationships across perinatal services, public and private, so we can better serve pre and postnatal women in our community 💞

It’s still proving difficult to reach woman and families in our community who NEED our support and get enough SUPPORT from other perinatal support workers BUT since then we set up our community interest company Dream Big Families CIC and other the last two months have delivered a dozen sessions to women and families in our community at incredibly low cost to them 🙌🏼

The feedback has been AMAZING 🤩

Want to help us? It’s easy! If you ARE or you KNOW any midwives, perinatal support workers, health visitors, in fact anyone serving the perinatal community - classes, scans, massages, mental health - we are very keen to talk 🙏🏻

How else can EVERYONE help? Let parents-to-be, new parents, know that we exist! We are looking to build a stronger, tighter network in the region so we can help signpost, support, provide for perinatal women 🤰🏼👶🤱

Even simpler… LIKE, SHARE or COMMENT on this post please 🙏🏻

Self care. Do you take time for yourself? To do something which nourishes, restores, relaxes or recharges you? Something that makes you happy? If so what does it look like? 🤔

Exercise? Baking? Music? Reading? 🏃🏼‍♀️🧁🎶📕

I like to do all of these when I have the time but yoga is my magic. The thing that has the most positive impact on me. You’d hope so I guess as it’s what I do for a living! 🧘🏼‍♀️

Yoga and meditation is a wonderful way to offer yourself care… physically and mentally relaxing, nourishing and restoring 🧘🏼‍♀️

I’m really interested in what YOU, my followers do, and also if any of you do yoga or meditation? Please interact with me by posting your comments below 🙏🏻
