My Restorative Care Workshops
Connecting & Communicating with Infant Massage
As you may have already read on the other pages of my website, I’m a certified student instructor with the world-leading International Association of Infant Massage (IAIM) I’m also a hypnotherapist and trained counsellor. I’ve worked in early years education and care settings for several decades and specialise in infant care, supporting families and their infants.
​
As a mother with four children, including twins, I understand the realities of parenthood - its challenges and joys; the love and the guilt we all feel at different times as we navigate our way through the parenting journey. Community is vital, and having twins, with two other siblings close in age, I had to actively seek out different groups for support.
​
Baby Signing and Baby Massage were two that I found to be fun but also helpful in communicating and connecting with them. I also struggled with space and time to be me and feel that in offering this sacred time and space for others, I can help mothers build trusting, connecting and communicative relationships with each other and their infants.

Maternal Calmscape Journalling
Maternal Journal is a global community movement!
This exciting 6-week programme is based on the renowned Maternal Journal.
​
The group is typically made up of pregnant women, birthing people and mothers, and usually has around 6 members. The group will meet for a few hours together at a regular time for 6 weeks.
Each session is guided by a different journalling exercise to encourage exploration of creativity, emotions and experiences. One of the best things about journalling in a group is sharing a safe space to connect with other people.
​
These 6 sessions are held in Dorset. Details about the next group of sessions will be available shortly. Please register your interest by contacting me below.
Cost for these sessions is by donations only.

Women & Mother Calmscape Circles
Women's circles are a place for connection, creating community and rebuilding that village we're all desperately longing for. Sitting in circle as a regular practice offers women a chance to feel safe; to express their truth, share their stories and actively listen to each other.
​
Women's circles are a fantastic opportunity to regularly connect with others to both hear and be heard. It’s a space to share as a community during these incredibly chaotic and challenging times.
