TOWER HAMLETS FAMILY MEET-UP AND SUPPORT GROUP FOR BUMPS, BABIES AND TODDLERSJoin us with your bumps, babies, toddlers and partners and enjoy a friendly boost of positivity to help you along your journey through pregnancy into parenthood with support and friendships.
We'll talk all things bump, birth and beyond! It's a chilled and lovely atmosphere to take a breather, get peer support, meet other lovely parents and chat over a nice cuppa.
It takes a village to raise a child, welcome to yours!
This meet-up is for new and expectant parents, those with babies and toddlers. Please kindly note that we're not a playgroup or a baby class, but we do have a little play corner with toys for your little ones.
We’re a team of mums and perinatal professionals with a wide range of pregnancy, birth and early parenthood knowledge, skills and expertise. We can support you antenatally and postnatally and we have a wonderful network of perinatal and early years experts on hand.
Each month we have other perinatal/early years professionals who join us! Who comes vary from meet to meet and this will be advertised in the event/social media.
(If you are a perinatal/early years professional, you are welcome to attend to provide free support to parents. This must be agreed prior to attending the meet-up by emailing Mel at [email protected]).
Mel and her sling volunteers are here to tell you all about babywearing, fit check your slings, show you how to feed in slings and help you try some slings on. We have a wide range of slings and carriers available at the meet-up you can try on and hire if you wish to do so. Please note that the meet is usually very busy so there is only so much time we can offer per parent so we can help everybody safely.
The meet runs from 10.30am to 1pm. There is plenty of space to accommodate buggies and people! Entrance is via reception to check in.
Partners and grandparents are very welcome!
You don't need to live in Tower Hamlets to attend, all welcome.
You can get drinks and food from the awesome E5 Poplar Bakehouse cafe in Poplar Union (please bring a reusable cup).
There are toilets and baby changing facilities in the building.
When booking, only book tickets for the adults attending, not the babies. Booking is required. Follow the link to book your ticket on the Poplar Union's website.
This support group is ran entirely by volunteer perinatal professionals who are here to support new and expectant parents.
Poplar Union very kindly hires us the hall on a donations-basis to cover room hire expenses, so we ask participants to make a donation for the hire.
Please donate if you can. Any amount is helpful. By making your donation when booking your ticket, you help us save a lot of precious time on the day so we don’t have to take time out to collection donations and instead use this time to offer parents support.
Donations will be collected by the organisers on the day if you haven't donated when booking your ticket (card payments only), if you wish to donate.
Join our Tower Hamlets Family Meet-up private FB group for all the info and to keep the convo going!!
