My Health Visitor referred me to the BHSCT SIGNETS Programme after the birth of my first little girl.
Being a slightly older first time mum I really welcomed the opportunity to take part in the SIGNETS programme and enjoyed the the face to face group setting, as it helped me gain more confidence within myself as I am generally quite shy.
The programme started with baby massage, followed by baby yoga and then followed the Incredible Babies programme.
Since starting the programme I feel I have bonded more with my little girl and have gained more confidence as a mum, learning that when it comes to babies it is not as simple as one size fits all, as all babies grow and develop at their own pace.
I looked forward each week to meeting and chatting with the other mums, sharing experiences and milestones and watching our babies grow, develop and interact/play together.
I really appreciate the guidance and support that Jayne, Angela and Zoley provided to me and they made me feel at ease and I knew that I could ask them any question, even if I thought I was silly (it was not in their eyes).
I would highly recommend the SIGNETS programme to any mums/dads, especially first time mums/dads, if they are given the opportunity to participate.
