Making Mums
Oct
1

Making Mums

Join us for a 1.5 hour mindful craft class where we explore a simple craft technique.

Each week we will learn a simple craft technique, something that can be done whilst your baby sits on your lap, snuggles in the sling, has a feed or snoozes in the pram. This session is an opportunity to do something for you, to have a chat with other local mums and let your mind wander whilst you make something with your hands. So much of your day as a new mum is spent looking after your new babe and perhaps taking them to classes for their development, so let this class be a weekly opportunity to carve out time to nurture yourself and spark your creativity.

Hosted by Chloe Phelps
