Takes a Village is a pop-up social enterprise supporting the wellbeing of new parents. Our aim is to bring together the things we know that new parents need:

​

- High quality local services, together in one place. So it's easy to access the expertise and support you need, exactly when you need it.

- Evidence-based information to make decisions - and nothing but support once you've made them.

-Somewhere to just be, in good company, with your babies. Where you can feed and change them, in a supportive environment.

- Somewhere to build your own network of like-minded friends in this new phase of your life.

Take a look at what?s on, on our website. We?d love to see you!

I really enjoyed the postnatal nature sessions with Michele and Emma and can't wait to get back to postnatal Pilates with Gemma after half term.

As someone who suffers from anxiety, I was really surprised how easily I relaxed at Takes a Village. Love the space and vibe.

The sling library support has also been invaluable. What a great idea to hire different slings before you buy.
