Baby Group Helper

This is a church group seeking to provide a safe, relaxing and welcoming environment for new mums (dads, grannies, carers etc.) to meet together, have a cup of tea and share experiences. The age range of the babies is new born to one year old.

DBS check required (we will organise this) and we require you to attend a Safeguarding course (we will also provide this).

Some mums gave feedback about their experience if the group and here's what they said:

"We love this baby group! My son was 6 weeks old when we first started, and it’s been something we look forwards to every week. Thank you, ladies!"

"Nice set up and very friendly environment. The group is run by some very nice ladies and it involves playtime, chatting and singing. We’ve been coming here for the last 6 months and we’ll be sad that we’re stopping soon due to return to work."

"A really lovely play group. I have been to so many different ones and they have been rubbish! But here it has wonderful staff and really lovely mums.  In my opinion, it’s really calm and relaxed, also really safe. Just in general a lovely environment."

"I love this play group. Everyone talks to each other. My favourite time of the week! The staff are lovely and my little one enjoys it with all the toys and the other babies."

"We started coming to this play group and we’ve stayed as it’s clean, friendly and very welcoming. The staff are very friendly and get involved with the children. Greatest play group ever!"

"Me and my daughter absolutely love coming to this group. We’ve been coming since she was 6 weeks old. The ladies who run this group are so lovely and welcoming."

"Me and my son have been attending since he was 6 weeks old and we have enjoyed every session! We are always welcome, and feel part of a community."
