Mother and Baby

This activity involves creating a safe space for mothers and babies/toddlers to give them an opportunity to create social bonds, to network and engage in health promoting activities. Currently, this group has over 50 mothers and over 10 babies and toddlers weekly. 

 

These coffee mornings that take place every Friday 10.00 a.m. – 12.30 p.m. At the moment they are blended, with some participants on Zoom and some on site. 

 

During our coffee mornings mothers participate in capacity building activities facilitated by skilled psychosocial practitioners while the babies/toddlers are engaged in play in the form of developmentally appropriate activities with qualified child practitioners. 

 

The mothers capacity building activities cover subjects that they themselves identify as issues. They have engaged on workshops (5 – 10 block sessions) on topics ranging from ‘Stress and Stress Management’, ‘Reproductive & Sexual Health’ and are currently engaged in a ‘Parenting and Education Skills’ program.
