✨ Still a few spaces left on my July Sun Warrior Baby Yoga Course! ✨
Summer can feel wonderfully full... but it can also feel busy, overwhelming and like the days fly by before you've had a chance to enjoy them.

My July Sun Warrior Baby Yoga classes are your invitation to slow down.
🌞 A chance to be fully present with your baby.
🧘‍♀️ Gentle movement to support both you and your little one.
💛 Time to connect, bond and make beautiful memories together.
🌿 A calm, welcoming space where you can breathe, relax and simply enjoy being in the moment.

Baby yoga isn't just about stretching, it's about nurturing your baby's development, supporting digestion and sleep, encouraging confidence through movement, and giving you the opportunity to meet other local parents who are on the same journey. It’s also a moment for you, everything I offer focuses as much on mum as it does baby, because mums need to fill their cups too!

If you've been thinking about joining, this is your sign. I'd love to welcome you and your little one this July.

A little moment of calm in the middle of summer. Check out my website to book your space before they're gone! 💛

‼️it’s official, the results are in‼️

I passed my exam and I am now officially an IBCLC 🎉🎉

I spent my maternity leave studying, reading, completing homework and living the breastfeeding life through theory and practice! And it paid off, my goal was reached today when those results came in.

Who would have thought that 5 years ago, a desire to breastfeed in pregnancy would create so much passion for breastfeeding and helping others to achieve their goals, that it literally changed and shaped my career!

📣 Exciting New Times Ahead ‼️

📆 Next weekend I will be training in baby massage and following this Love & Lotus will be trialling some baby massage classes 🎊.

📑 As part of my training I will need to complete some case studies of classes I have held. Therefore, I will be holding some classes at a heavily reduced rate 💷.

👶🏾 Baby massage is suitable for babies who are not yet mobile (generally under 12 weeks).

🔖 Tag a mama who might be interested so they can follow my page for updates! ❤️

What’s so special about baby yoga?

🧠 Brain Development
Babies go through rapid brain development in the first two years of life. Each day they are making thousands of neural connections. Song and touch are just a couple of ways that help form these connections.

💪 Physical Development
Moves in baby yoga are designed to follow the cephalocaudal (head to toe) and proximodistal (centre to extremities) process of development babies follow. This gives practice for meeting milestones.

🧘🏽‍♀️Calming & Soothing
Having lots of touch & massage help to smooth and calm babies as they boost oxytocin the opposing hormone to cortisol the stress hormone.

🤱🏻Bonding & Attunement
Touch & massage help with bonding by boosting oxytocin the love hormone. Attunement is boosted by spending time watching and learning your babies cues in class and working with them.

🥒 Aids Digestion & Colic
Massage and movements can relieve trapped wind and encourage gut motility. Holds used in baby yoga can be comforting for babies with colic and reflux.

The start of a new week & perhaps the start of doing something for you?

Love & Lotus baby yoga focuses as much on parent as it does your little cutie because we can’t pour from an empty cup.

So give yourself a little something this week and come along to baby yoga. No experience necessary, moves are slow and progressive to help heal the postnatal body and mind ❤️

‼️ISSUE WITH WEBSITE‼️

If you’re looking to book this week for PAYG or June unwind bundle please use the 5th June date.

Classes are still 4th June but the website has glitched and does not like that date!

Thank you ❤️❤️

Want to feel present, calm & do something for you? All whilst enjoying quality time with your baby 💕

Why not give baby yoga a try! A class as much for you as it is for your baby!

First class free with code freebie or why not book one the specials. These work out at the same price as a chain brand coffee but unlike the coffee, classes last longer and they make you feel better 💛
