I can’t quite believe we are North Derbyshire FREE here, but we are well and truly in the throws of Summer. Being Front Cover a teacher for over 10 years I suppose I have the school year embedded in me, so summer always feels like the end of the year, looking towards a new year and fresh start in September. This will see the start of my middle one’s school life... I am sad, apprehensive, excited and happy for her in all one www.littlerobinphotography.co.uk go. I’m sure there are many of you that can relate. It is Subscriptions a cliché but time really does fly by!

Hopefully Lots for Tots is on hand for you all to help make the most of your littles ones whilst they are still under 5. There really is so much out there. As I do my research I am blown away by the choice on offer, with new classes, events and ideas being launched all of the time to keep your little ones entertained. We welcome a number of new additions in this magazine so look out for them.

In this edition we have a spectacular competition on Pg. 25 which is sure to earn you serious parenting points if you win, especially for all parents of Superhero fans out there!

So a Happy Summer to one and all, may it be filled with BBQs, fayres, laughter, sun and making memories.

La Leche League Derbyshire Friendly Breastfeeding Support from Pregnancy onwards La Leche League (LLL) is a mother-to-mother breastfeeding support charity that was started in 1956 in Illinois, USA. They now have around 6,000 accredited Leaders across 70 countries, all of whom are volunteers (who have breastfed a baby for at least 12 months and undertaken a Leader Accreditation course) working from their homes around the needs of their own families.

LLL is recognized by UNICEF and WHO as a world expert in breastfeeding and is the largest women’s health organisation in the world. They have their own medical liaison Leaders and Panel of Professional Advisors whom they can ask for additional information if need be.

The core of their work is their network of local mother-to-mother support groups, facilitated by LLL Leaders. The Derbyshire group has been running for over 30 years and the monthly meetings are open to all who are pregnant or breastfeeding. There is always some form of cake available, along with healthy snacks, a cuppa and a library of books covering various aspects of

pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and parenting.

Details of all LLL Derbyshire support group meetings, including occasional toddler meetings (for those who are feeding babies over 9 months & beyond) can be found on their facebook page (@lllderbyshire) which also has information and articles on all aspects of mothering and breastfeeding.

Leaders can be contacted between meetings via the facebook page, on the phone (a national helpline), by email or via the national website which has a wealth of supportive, accurate and evidence based information. LLL understand that when a mother needs support it can’t wait until tomorrow.

The heart of LLL’s work has always been mothering through breastfeeding and the foundation of their effectiveness has always been mother-to-mother support.

So if you’re pregnant, just starting your breastfeeding journey or want to meet other breastfeeding mums, bring your bump, baby or older child to a group and feel the lllove. www.laleche.org.uk

Move with Mumma has arrived!

Manda will help you become fitter & healthier the right way...

The idea of Move with Mumma was born 5 yrs ago when I found myself out of shape and decided to start different workouts and group classes.

I discovered that exercise can be great fun with lots of laughter involved. I loved it so much that I really wanted to spread my new-found love for fitness and haven’t looked back.

As a personal trainer and fitness instructor I’ve met so many amazing ladies and I love seeing their fantastic results.

Over the years of training it became apparent that there is little, and often conflicting, information out there for new mums on how to heal their bodies after child birth with exercise and nutrition. This made me want to provide a place where mums can feel comfortable with their baby, and pass on that information to help as many ladies as possible.

As a postnatal specialist I can help you with pelvic floor issues, diastasis issues, c-section healing and nutrition for healing your body and getting in shape.

Our Move with Mumma classes are 90 minutes long. After the fitness, we spend time bonding with baby using Baby Massage (0-6 mths) and Learn, Stretch & Play (6-18 mths).

Baby Massage is a lovely time to focus on baby and share the love, alongside some fantastic routines to help with issues such as teething and colic. In Learn, Stretch & Play we combine fun songs, baby yoga and sensory play with baby massage.

So, pop along to our amazing new classes where baby is guaranteed to enjoy moving with mumma, and check out our Summer Sizzler Offer online now! I can’t wait to meet you all. Manda x

BRAND NEW CLASSES NOW IN CHESTERFIELD! At Move with Mumma, we provide a fun and friendly environment for mums to build body and mind confidence, bond and connect with their baby.

Safe and effective fitness for mum with baby by your side, bonding time using baby massage and ‘learn, stretch & play’ and time to meet and connect with other mums in your area. t in touch!
