Recommended: Fri morning bumps & babes at St Faiths

[Pickle]

If you have a baby (up to around 1 year) and are looking for a lovely welcoming and relaxing activity on a Fri morning I can't recommend this group highly enough.

Run by the lovely Alice, it's just ?1, there's nice coffee, tea and biscuits, and soft mats and toys for the little ones. This group was my absolute life saver when I had my first child, and kept me sane throughout my 2nd pregnancy and subsequent birth of #2.

I went this morning with #3 (who doesn't really know what babies look like, so I figured I'd socialise her!) and was reminded just how great the group is. Surprisingly there weren't many people, so I thought I'd help drum up some support.

There's free parking, or if you're feeling energetic it's not too far to walk from central East Dulwich.

Come for a cup of tea, a chat, and a chance to relax (Alice is brilliant at recognising the signs of a Mum who could do with 15 minutes of hands free time and will willingly hold/entertain babies).

Full details are on the ED Tots website.

I obviously haven't been for a long time but this group was pretty much the highlight of my first year with first baby - truly a time for mums with little babies to sit and chat and feed and have tea, with some mats and baby toys (no singing/massaging etc required!). Alice is lovely and there are always nice biscuits! Highly recommend.

I agree this is a lovely group. I went there lots with my eldest and it was nice to go back again when I had my twins as well

That sounds great - is it only for babies though as I have a two year old also

[Pickle]

Technically yes, although I used to take my older boy along when I had my 2nd child (but he wasn't mobile). I think as long as you can keep the 2 year old calm it would be ok, bring some snacks and favourite toys.
