Gentle Beginnings with Unique Births
Gentle Beginnings – A Unique Postnatal Group
Welcome to Gentle Beginnings – a weekly postnatal group for mums and birthing parents with babies aged 0–6 months.
Unlike most baby groups, Gentle Beginnings is not about fixing sleep or feeding patterns, or ticking milestones. It’s about you – your wellbeing, your voice, and your experience of the early months of parenthood.
This is a gentle, safe, and supportive space where you can simply be. Some weeks you may feel like joining in a group conversation about the highs and lows of parenthood, while other weeks you may just want to sit back with coffee, cake, and the reassurance that you’re not alone.
Our qualified postnatal practitioner and in-house feeding expert are there every week – not to judge or tell you what to do, but to listen, support, and hold space. We believe parents don’t need to be “fixed” any more than their babies do. Instead, we focus on how you are coping with the reality of broken sleep, changing emotions, and all the demands of new parenthood.
Parents tell us this group is “the space I didn’t know I needed,” “the thing that saved me in those early weeks,” and “the only group where I could be completely honest.”
Why join Gentle Beginnings?
A postnatal group that focuses on the parent, not just the baby
A safe, welcoming space to share honestly – the good and the hard
No judgement, no pressure, no cliques
Connection with other new parents who get it

Unlike most baby groups, Gentle Beginnings is not about fixing sleep or feeding patterns, or ticking milestones. It’s about you – your wellbeing, your voice, and your experience of the early months of parenthood.
This is a gentle, safe, and supportive space where you can simply be. Some weeks you may feel like joining in a group conversation about the highs and lows of parenthood, while other weeks you may just want to sit back with coffee, cake, and the reassurance that you’re not alone.
Our qualified postnatal practitioner and in-house feeding expert are there every week – not to judge or tell you what to do, but to listen, support, and hold space. We believe parents don’t need to be “fixed” any more than their babies do. Instead, we focus on how you are coping with the reality of broken sleep, changing emotions, and all the demands of new parenthood.
Parents tell us this group is “the space I didn’t know I needed,” “the thing that saved me in those early weeks,” and “the only group where I could be completely honest.”
