Hi i work in the Hillsborough Area (i will be based in Hillsborough Children's Centre in a few weeks when it is up and running)

There are lots of different groups in Hillsborough you can look on the ASKSID website to do a postcode search for a list of groups in your area, or i have a 'time table' that i have put together listing all the groups in Hillsborough each day of the week.

I run a Bay Group called Bumps and Beyond at Creswick Street Children’s Centre (just off Langsett Road, behind the Primrose View Tram stop!)

The group runs every Tuesday 1pm-3pm (times are flexible to parents, don’t worry about being late/ leaving early just pop in as you like!)

The group is really laid back and friendly, i provide lots of toy for the babies and chat to parents through out the session, the Centre also has a Toy Library which you can loan toys/ info books/ etc) A local Midwife is also usually at the group providing antenatal and post-natal advice if you want it.

I try to have a group focus at least once a month, i base these around activities/ areas parents have talked about and would like to look into in more detail (for example today we did a focus on Treasure Baskets), its really informal!

PM me if you would like more info about this group or days/ times of other groups in the area.

Hope this helps!

There is a group specifically for under 1's at the Memorial Hall on Forbes Road on a Tuesday morning (think it starts at 10.30 finishes about 12.30 ish - cant remember exactly its been a while since Ive been). Also if you are a breastfeeding mum there is a dropin at the childrens library in Hillsborough Park on a Monday at 10.30 to 12.30 - this was a really nice group with HV's and other breastfeeding mums at hand if you have any questions or problems. Sometimes you can get your baby weighed there too:)

The best one for little babies is a mums and babies group that is on in st johns memorial hall forbes rd. it used to be on a wednesday at ten but i have a feeling its changed to a tuesday if you walked past there is a sign in the window. most of the other groups in hillsborough are for toddlers but this one is for new mums and everyone is lovely, i still see all the mums i met there 3 years ago and we've all had our 2nd babies together. There is also a breastfeeding group at the library in hillborough on a monday morning followed by a pram push around the park. Your HV should be able to tell you more. PM me if you'd like any more info.

 

Lisa H got there first.lol

Hi nikkid

 

Congratulations on your little boy. I run a baby signing group nearby in Walkley on Thursday mornings. You can come along with Reece for a free trial session. Babies and toddlers come to the group, ages range from 2 months to around 15 months. Its very relaxed and friendly. All the babies have good fun, and there are plenty of smiles and cups of tea and coffee.:)

 

There are different groups on different days at the same place - Walkley community centre. Its a great place. I hope you find lots of lovely things to do, and meet some great people.

Where were you? We kept looking at the door (Boosmum and I), SpeedDemon came down and we hoped to see you too.

Maybe another day?
