❤️ In Week 1 of our Bond With Baby 👶🏽 classes, we introduce you to some key Signalong signs to use while talking and interacting with your baby.

💭 But why use Signalong with your baby?

🌟 Slow down & connect
Using signs alongside speech naturally encourages you to slow down, emphasise key words and give your baby more time to process what you’re saying.

🌟 More face-to-face communication
Signing encourages lots of lovely eye contact and helps make those little everyday interactions even more engaging — supporting communication and connection between you and your baby. ❤️

🌟 Bring language to life
When we sign and say a word together, we use facial expressions, gestures and changes in our tone of voice to help make its meaning clearer and more interesting for baby.

🌟 And that’s just the beginning!
There are lots of lovely ways we can support your baby’s early communication, development and your bond together.

Come along to one of our Bond With Baby classes with your 3–9 month old and learn more. 👶🏽❤️

Supporting one another 🫶

Yesterday I went to see the new Moana film with my own mum and my own two daughters and I felt so inspired 🙌 I felt inspired by how amazing a Disney movie it is (Moana is most definitely my favourite Disney “princess”) and also how wise and wonderful her Grandma Tala is 🫶

It made me think of FATOWL & all of the beautiful baby classes we have ran over the years the impact have had to so many new mums (and dads!) grannies and grandads too!

After taking a wee breather to give my own family the support it needed, Caro and I are back in just one weeks time 🙌 to run our baby massage, bond with baby and FATOWL BEATS classes 🎵 🥁

As well as providing fantastic classes which can help support your baby’s development in so many ways, we also support you. 🫶 We help you build your community of new parents through warm and nurturing classes which always end with cups of tea, biscuits and plenty of time to chat. We create what’s app groups for all classes so you have a lifeline at those times in the middle of the night when the world can seem so lonely. We understand what being a new mama really is all about and we are here for you ❤️

“Here’s to strong 💪 women: may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them.” And may we support them.

If you have a baby aged from birth - 1 year please 🙏 come and join your new class. A very warm and supportive welcome awaits 🤗 We are running classes in many lovely venues across Edinburgh and you can join us and see our full range of classes here: www.fatowl.uk

Drum 🥁 roll please…

📕 🌟 You are all invited to a FREE Book Launch: Coping with Early Parenting at Lifecare Centre Edinburgh on Friday 12 June

This amazing 🤩 lady Dr Hannah Guzinska - Parenting and Psychology is local mum and also a Clinical Psychologist and she has written a book for parents in the early years! ❤️

It’s called Coping with Early Parenting: The Magic and Mess of the First Few Years.

It’s a blend of Hannah’s own experience in the first years of being a parent, and the things she found helpful from being a clinical psychologist (which she says gave her lots of ideas but didn’t actually change the fact that parenting is hard!)

She has basically written the book she wished she had had!

We are delighted to be co-hosting Hannah’s book launch with her so please save the date:

🗓️ 10:30am on Friday 12th June at the Lifecare Centre in Stockbridge.

You’re welcome to bring your wee one. Hannah will be talking about the book but it will be really informal and babies and toddlers are welcome to come and just be babies and toddlers! We will have toys 🧸 and activities for your little ones and snacks 🍎 🍪 for all too 😍

Book your FREE spot here:

❤️Look 👀 at this amazing head control! 🙌

👶🏽 Week 5 of our baby massage course teaches you how to massage your baby’s back and it’s my favourite week I think!

😍 Firstly, I love seeing parent’s learning lots of different ways to “do” tummy time with their babies!

👶🏽 Tummy time doesn’t always involve plonking your baby on the floor, arms flailing with them feeling all at sea! 🌊 Some babies love lying on the floor seeing the world 🌍 while others like being close to their parents, across their laps or even lying on their chests! This all counts as “tummy time” and we show you how to do this while also massaging your baby’s backs, giving them lots of gentle loving touch, relaxation, oxytocin boosts! 😍 and of course a chance to strengthen their wee bodies.

❤️ Secondly, I absolutely love seeing all of your baby’s faces!!! By week 5 of the course your baby’s have really started to enjoy massage and it’s a joy 🤩 to watch them relaxing and smiling 😊

I love all of our massage weeks but week 5 is always special 🌟

Our next 5 week blocks of classes start week beginning Monday 1 June in the following venues and we’d love you to join us 😊

Mondays
Wednesdays
Thursdays & the Rosebery Halls in South Queensferry

🌞 This will be our last blocks before our Summer break but we’ll be back in August and you can book those blocks now following the link above 👆 too!

😍 One of the benefits of learning how to massage your baby 👶🏽 is that it gives you the opportunity to bond with your baby through the power of touch ❤️

Massage produces the love 🥰 hormone oxytocin and did you know that one of the beautiful parts about that is that is it’s not only the person receiving the massage who produces it but the person giving it too? This equates to lovely, powerful 1-1 time with your baby where you are both feeling the love, connection and experiencing quality time together with lots of eye contact and smiles 😊

Many of our interactions with our babies can be functional and massage offers a chance for quality, bonding time 🥰

💝 It’s a real gift that many years later I can be experiencing this beautiful connection time with my own babies with them helping me teach you massage strokes too!

✨ Some of you know that I initially learned massage to help my own daughter Hannah to sleep deeper and for longer, help her to relax, have better tummy movements and for us to experience precious bonding time together.

When Hannah was a baby 👶🏽 she had many invasive medical procedures and massage was our time to connect and heal in a loving 🥰 way that would help her physically too.

🎶 It’s very special that here she is, years later, helping me teach it to you!

🔗 Come join us in one of our upcoming baby massage classes starting in June to learn this beautiful skill too! Book your spot on the mat at www.fatowl.uk ❤️
