Long Eaton New Babies!
We had an influx of new mums this morning to Bumps and Babies. I was expecting Danielle and Wren but we had two other completely new faces - Anoushka with her baby and Julia with 2-week-old Arlin.
We were also joined by Fran & Nigel with 6-day-old Finlay, and Nora with Danny. We now have lots of very young babies which is lovely as our older ones are moving on to other activities and some of the mums are going back to work.
If you're looking for somewhere to go with your baby, please come and join us every Thursday morning at St John's Church Hall, on the corner of Canal Street and College Street in Long Eaton. A warm welcome awaits you (and you can help yourself to as many cups of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits as you wish!); [original article]

Long Eaton Bumps and Babies' Last Session of 2009
There was almost a party atmosphere at the last Bumps and Babies session of 2009. Caroline, who has helped Sue with running the group since July, has taken over the local Tiny Talk classes. She provided a sample Tiny Talk class to the mums and babies who came along today.
It's been a fantastic year which has seen the group grow from an idea to a successful and friendly group which meets every week in Long Eaton. We had a visit from the local Primary Care Trust who have been doing a review of maternity services and wanted some feedback. The results of their information-gathering so far and the form for feeding back to them is available here.
We've had demonstrations and talks from Tiny Talk, Jo Jingles, Water Babies and of course our pottery session with Sticky Fingers Parties.
Pottery can be collected from Sue's house next Tuesday, 22 December. Please email her, leave a comment on the blog or contact through Facebook if you need details or directions
Coming in 2010 - on 21 January, we have our Japanese session with Cocoro, learning about Japanese toys, clothing and food, and on 14 January a Baby Reflexology session with Hayley from Sole Nutrition.
We're also planning to encourage some more discussion across the group between more experienced and less experienced mums so that you can pass on and pick up tips on burning issues. You'll probably have your own ideas about what you'd like to discuss but weaning, vaccinations, sleep, spring to mind. Look out for the suggestions board next month.
And of course, since Sue and Catherine will be running NCT antenatal classes almost every month throughout 2010 there will be a lot more Bumps and Babies joining us!
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We'll see you back on Thursday 7 January, same time, same place.;[original article]
