As I write, there is snow on the ground but not as much as predicted and in fact it sounded like it was melting when I opened the door to let the cat out. I hope to open Bumps and Babies every week until 16 December, regardless of the weather, because it's not too far for me to walk from my house. If for any reason I can't, I will post something on here. Please check each week if you are concerned.
Here is a reminder of our final few weeks' programme for 2010.
Thursday 2 December
Award-winning photographer Kay Oliver will be setting up a studio in the church hall and doing mini portrait sessions. Please bring along your child's favourite blanket, toy or outfit.
Sticky Fingers should be in this week bringing the pottery back that we created a few weeks ago. Mandy normally arrived about 11am so she can quickly give everything out.
Thursday 9 December
Harriet Daines, a medical student from the University of Nottingham will be popping back to video more mums and babies for a study they are conducting at the moment. You can read more on our website.
Thursday 16 December
Baby Sensory are coming along to give a demonstration of how their classes work.
This is the final session of 2010 and our very last Thursday session in the church hall. I'm hoping some local schoolchildren will be coming along to sing some carols and get us into the Christmas spirit.
Our first session of 2011 will be on Friday 14 January, 9.30am to 11.30am and will be held in the Nursery at The Elms Junior School on the Trent College campus. There will be some parking available on site - follow the signs when you get through the main entrance. There's also usually parking available on Derby Road but, as with many places in Long Eaton, you may find it easier to walk.
From January the group will be open to older babies and toddlers as well as newborns. The set-up of the nursery will, I believe, allow us to section off a quieter area for anyone who has a young baby and would prefer to be away from the older children. We'll also have use of the garden area for when the weather is good (or even when it's snowy).
If you'd like to know anything more about the group at Long Eaton, please feel free to give me a call on 07711 956779 or email me.
