‘The Nest’
No loud music, no jazz hands, no cliques…
Just a warm & welcoming parent & baby group in Truro that you both the TLC you absolutely deserve.
The friendliest parent & baby group in Truro…
Found in the cosy-ness that is ‘The Family Space’, ‘The Nest’ is a weekly group that’s all about the calm connections new parents seek, but often struggle to find.
For your small human, there are endless opportunities for gentle and enriching sensory materials to become enchanted with. But really, this group is for you…
A comfortable and calming atmosphere
The chance to socialise with grown-ups that get you
A snack and hot drink you’ll have time to enjoy
Easy parking and baby change facilities
“It made me feel that I didn’t need to be doing anything or being anywhere. It just felt so easy being there - like I could catch my breath...”
No loud music, no jazz hands, no cliques…
‘The Nest’ is a parent and baby group.
That’s it. Just that.
As a postnatal doula, I know what makes the difference to new parents and this is it: the time and space to play, chat, giggle and gurgle with people who know exactly what it’s like to be them.
Our sessions have no schedule or group activity. Each session freeflows along, but they tends to follow a pattern that looks like this…
Arrival: prams, car seats, feeds and nappy changes
The introduction chatter: “how old is your little one?”
Relaxation phase: teas, coffees, cake and laughter as your babies play
Solidarity phase: the stories, the questions, the confusion, the “yeah me too!”
Departure phase: the “see you next week”, pack-up chatter and number swapping.
And after 90 minutes in each other’s company, we leave lighter, happier and smile-ier & ready to face whatever comes next.
“Everyone talks to you, no one gets left out. We all share our experiences and no one judges. Our babies can play with toys while we all chat which I never really have anymore...”
