We might have a nice warm hot chocolate at a cafe after the walk. (subject to the opening times of the cafe.)

Why walk? What are the benefits?

You can connect with a local doula and other local mothers/parents and get some local information about pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period etc.
-
Your babies & toddlers can be occupied by walking in nature
-
You can feel better with some fresh air
-
It can be a time to listen to your heart and inner voice - Nature is always a teacher who can make us realise lots of important things in life.

Connecting with nature and other mothers/parents can empower yourself and your journey of pregnancy and parenthood.
This group was formerly called “Birth & Baby Group”, held in a village hall and a family centre.
Now I strongly believe that nature brings lots of benefits to living creatures including us human beings. You probably have an experience of feeling better or uplifted by spending some time in nature, even in your garden or a bit of a stroll in a park. Nature has a lot to teach us even when you have a big bump and are so busy with little ones.
So let’s reconnect with nature and other mothers & parents. You might sometimes feel it is hard to pack everything you need and go out in nature by yourself so let’s do it together!
I was so nervous and had lots of worries in my journey of pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
During those times, what really helped was connecting with other mothers-to-be and mothers. We just talked and shared thoughts and sometimes laughed but those times really gave me the energy and encouragement to keep going.
So I have a passion for holding space for pregnant mothers/parents and mothers/parents so that they can take their journey of motherhood/parenthood together.
