September is here! šŸ‚

I think we can say goodbye to the air con in the hall now and keep our fingers crossed that we won’t need the heating for a little while yet.

September is always a bit bittersweet. I say goodbye to some of my original little ones as they head off to school, and lots of mums are heading back to work after maternity leave. It’s exciting but I’ll miss you all!

However, I’m looking forward to welcoming some new families to the play sessions and baby massage sessions.

I know that walking into a new group can feel a bit/very daunting. I always try alto make sure everyone feels welcome from the moment they arrive. The families who come along are pretty brilliant at that too. There’s always someone happy to have a chat!

So if you’ve been thinking about coming along but haven’t quite managed it yet, September could be the perfect time to give Raise a try.

Come along, have a play, meet some lovely people and see what you think. I’d love to meet you!

✨September Bookings Open✨

I’m sorry to be joining in with everything else and putting my prices up slightly. I know costs seem to be rising everywhere at the moment, and I really didn’t want to add to that for you.

Unfortunately, the hall has had to increase my rent, which is completely understandable given the huge increase in their heating and cooling costs. I’ve done my best to absorb as much of the increase as I can and keep the change for you as small as possible.

I really hope you’ll understand and, most importantly, that you’ll still come along and play! šŸ’›

I’m so grateful for everyone who comes to my sessions and supports my little business. It really does mean the world to me.

As we’re fully into the second half of July, I just wanted to put a post up reminding everyone that I will be open over the summer holidays (minus one week).

Play sessions are created for children under 5 but over the holidays older siblings are always welcome.

The hall has wonderful air con, so we’ve been keeping cool so far this very hot summer.

August bookings are open and my summer parties are taking place the first week of August! Think seaside play dough, under the sea crafts, watermelon footprint cards, beach balls and more.

I’d love to see you for a play or baby massage session over the summer ā˜€ļø

A new month and after a week off I’m back at the hall ready for the summer!

For when the temperatures get very hot again, remember the hall has air conditioning to help keep you all cool.

Play sessions suitable from birth until 4 (older siblings welcome in the holidays) on Thursdays 10am-11.30am and 3pm-4.30pm and Fridays 10am-11.30am.

Baby massage and play from newborn to 12 months on Thursdays 12.30pm-1.45pm.

Book for the month and get 10% off.

There’s a lovely playground opposite the hall if you would like to combine a play session with some outdoor play before or after.

Hope to see you soon!

A playgroup with a difference šŸ’›

Are you looking for a space…

…that’s for you as much as it is for your child?

…that has high quality, clean toys chosen to engage and challenge your child throughout their early years?

…that is extremely friendly, welcoming and supportive, especially when you come on your own with your child and are feeling a little apprehensive?

…that offers hot and cold drinks, along with a sweet treat to enjoy?

…that is set in a beautiful, light filled space where numbers are kept low, so everyone can play and enjoy the space freely?

If this sounds like a space you’ve been searching for, come and join us!

I’m not bothered if this is just false spring, I’ll take the mild, bright days promising better weather is ahead of us.
I can’t wait for sunny days in the hall again šŸ‘†šŸ»

I can’t promise the sunshine outside but the sun will be shining in the hall as we play this week. Spaces to play available to book through the link in my bio. Baby massage is full this week (thank you!) but a few spaces left for March šŸ’›

On Thursday 12th March, the lovely Terri from will be joining us in the hall for our morning play session and then the baby massage class.

Come join us if you would like to make some personalised pottery for Mother’s Day, Easter or just because!

Terri will be there to help you do your children’s hand and footprints and then will take your pottery away with her to work her magic and fire them. Turn around time for the pottery is around two weeks.

These are always such popular sessions so book soon to avoid missing out.
