St. Mary's Church - Wavertree

---

On Thursday 14th January 2010 we launched a new Bumps & Babies group at St Mary's, in partnership with the NCT. This new group is for all expectant and new parents and their babies, and is held each Thursday afternoon from 1 – 3pm. It is free to attend and open for people to drop in at any point during the two hours. The aim is to provide a welcoming and relaxed environment in which mums can come and meet other parents and talk about their experiences. Babies are welcome to make themselves comfortable on the mats and blankets whilst the mums enjoy a cuppa and some yummy refreshments.

The group is staffed by volunteers from the church and trained people from the NCT - Ali is an NCT Breastfeeding counsellor who is available to offer support before and after the birth; Kate will facilitate opportunities to share experiences and ideas about parenting; and Alex will be available most weeks to answer questions on pregnancy and birth. If you know of any new mums, or mums-to-be, who might benefit from this group tell them to pop along any Thursday afternoon. A very warm welcome awaits them. For more information, contact Malcolm.
