Classes 0 – 2 years
Our Baby Bumpkin programme uses the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum as its basis.
The classes are a 3-in-1 – combining storytelling, music and simple baby yoga movements with the fun Baby Bumpkin demonstration doll, and give all the babies from 6 weeks to crawling a great physical foundation to development.
There is also emphasis on the parent, with time for discussion amongst the group and lots of creative parenting techniques. The unique story structure will give you ideas on how to communicate and play with your baby at home.
All our Baby Bumpkin teachers are fully qualified and CACHE accredited, in addition to having training in Tatty Bumpkin techniques so can help with your baby as it progresses and grows.
The classes are held in pre-schools, nurseries, and private classes and sometimes in people’s homes. Baby Bumpkin is a very relaxed, informal way to have fun with your baby, whilst at the same time really helping with their physical and emotional development.
The classes can help aid digestion and other physical issues.
