What is your baby thinking about?


Find out with TinyTalk baby signing!    
 

Babies have so much to say, long before they can talk.

Help them to express themselves- and encourage their speaking skills too.
 

TinyTalk was the first national baby signing organisation across the UK, established in 2002. We now teach the benefits of baby signing to over 5000 young families each week. Our award-winning classes are loved for their "buzz" and have been described as "the best bits of all the other classes, put together!"


 

Why sign with your baby?

Signing babies are:

  • happy  (as they are understood)
  • content (as they are so much less frustrated)
  • visual (always looking out for the next thing to tell you about)
  • little chatterboxes! (as their signs help them to talk to you)

At TinyTalk Baby Signing Classes, we'll teach you the fun way.
 

We teach useful signs through singing well-known nursery rhymes and action songs, playing with colourful puppets and toys and sharing entertaining stories. We'll even serve up a coffee, chocolate biscuits and allow you plenty of time to chat with your friends and play with your baby.

We also offer TinyTalk Toddler Classes which are more active classes, with language games and even a parachute.
 

And what about joining the team? Would you like to work with your baby? At TinyTalk you can!

For more information: visit www.tinytalk.co.uk, call 01483 301444 or email info@tinytalk.co.uk.

Buggyfit- the word on the lips of Mums in the know!!

 

Buggyfit has become the most popular way to lose the post baby weight and get

back into shape while still being a devoted Mum.

 

Buggyfit is an outdoor fitness class completely designed with the needs

of new Mums in mind. All lead by trained fitness professionals, buggyfit classes are based on power walking with some optional jogging too and are proving to be the best way to get back to fitness, while baby enjoys the fresh air too. It is easy to see why buggyfit is taking the Country by storm with classes cropping up in most major towns. 
 

No crèche or babysitting expenses needed, just a great mix of fat-burning and re-toning with baby by your side and friends to chat to. Emma Redding the founder of buggyfit, is a qualified personal trainer and member of The Guild of Post-natal Exercise Teachers. Buggyfit was launched after the birth of her son in 2002. 

 

As featured in all the leading press, Buggyfit classes are opening every month around the UK to

provide a social, fitness class for Mums and babies with the perfect mix of cardio vascular fat burning exercises and strengthening, toning and stretching. The buggyfit trainers use their expertise to make use of outdoor objects such as farm gates and park benches to instruct exercises to re-tone muscles.We especially target areas that have been weakened in Pregnancy and childbirth such as butts, thighs, arms and abs, with particular emphasis on good posture while we do them" says Emma. Buggyfit classes cost between £3 and £8 depending on geographical area. Most areas offer discounted block booking options. Watch out for the new 'Buggyfit blitz'- and intense course of sessions to really get you in the zone and help accelerate results.
