BELIEVING IN BABIES

These classes offer a calm, supportive space for parents & their babies to slow down, observe, & grow together. Designed for parents who want to feel more confident & at ease, the classes support a baby-led approach that honours each child’s natural development.

Inspired by the RIE Educaring approach, classes focus on observation over intervention, allowing babies time & space to explore freely at their own pace. Parents are guided to step back, notice, & reflect, building trust in their baby’s abilities while gaining confidence in their own instincts.

Everyday care such as feeding, changing, & dressing are explored as meaningful opportunities for connection. Simple, passive play materials support curiosity, concentration, & self-initiated play.

Just as importantly, the classes are a nurturing, non-judgemental space for parents to ask questions, share experiences, & feel supported. This is about slowing down, building trust, & cultivating calm, respectful relationships supporting baby & parent.

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK

Lydia - boy 10mths:

"I have really enjoyed Carly's classes and my little boy has too! Carly creates a lovely, relaxed atmosphere for both mums and babies. It's rare nowadays to go to a class that requires no participation from the mum, just a chance to sit back and observe their little one exploring and discovering. The RIE principles are shared gently and there's opportunity to learn a different way of parenting that is refreshing and liberating."

Helen - boy 1 year:

"Such a lovely class that respected babies' independence to explore at their own pace. The calm non-overstimulating environment helped me realise I don't need to entertain my baby - it's ok to step back, observe and learn. A safe, gentle space created by a thoughtful practitioner, and genuinely enjoyable for both babies and mums."
