We know how isolating it can feel when you have a baby.

Our facilitated peer support groups are a wonderful opportunity to connect with other Mums and Dads and help your little one to enhance their emotional, physical and developmental health.

The groups offer a space for your baby to be with other babies, helping their early socialisation by showing them how to be with others and to learn to build relationships. The groups also give you the opportunity to meet other parents in a similar situation and for you all to explore different topics each week. The varying themes aim to improve relationships, because happy parents have happy babies; who are then able to achieve optimum health, wellbeing and achievements over their life time.

Little Pips is led by professionals who can provide you with expert advice and information on a wide range of topics including..

  • Developmental Milestones

  • Ideas for play and bonding

  • Self care

  • Growing together

  • Understanding your baby’s cues

  • plus much more!

The first 1001 days of a child’s life is a window of opportunity to impact on health outcomes throughout their lifespan, including long-term implications for the child’s cognitive and emotional development and their resilience to stress.  

“Its so nice to meet up with familiar faces and share our babies "new things" theyve learnt as well as vent about sleeping problems or little issues that crop up and get different perspectives from other mums and health visitors. Its so nice to be able to go out and meet other mums in a smaller group, its much less intimidating”

- Sophie

“With Little Pips, it’s nice to hear other mum’s experiences and also get some ideas on what we can do to help develop our relationship with our children in regards to learning. My highlight was watching my son learn to roll onto his belly during this group and also being reassured that he is a happy health boy and every baby has different development stages”

- Hayley
