12.30 - 2.30pm

This 2 hour long BYB (bring your baby) weekly art & craft session is held every Tuesday in term time for parents & carers of babies under 1. It is an opportunity, for parents & carers of young babies, to spend some time with like minded people & a chance to get creative. We run varied creative projects that actively encourage a focus on the benefits of wellbeing activities and peer support. Recent courses have included modern calligraphy, 3D decoupage letters, Christmas stockings, embroidery, applique and various sewing projects, painted dolls, wooden mobiles, pom pom wreaths, wooden height charts, etc.
 
Many groups are focused on your baby, but this one is about you & tapping into your creativity. The first year of having a new baby can a roller coaster & this class is intended to provide you with a consistent creative outlet to keep you going through that first year. Fun & creative, tutor- guided, art & craft projects take place throughout the year in term time, suitable for all abilities, which you are welcome to join when you can. 
 
Baby changing facilities available & breastfeeding friendly. Tea, coffee & cake available.
