In February 2025, my son was born prematurely at 34 weeks and we had a pretty tough first few months with ongoing health checks for severe reflux and colic, amongst other things.
I struggled to feel confident going out and about, but when he was 7 months old, we joined a baby massage class where I learnt gentle techniques that helped to soothe his cries and enhance our bond.
Having experienced the amazing benefits of baby massage first hand, I started Little Leaf Collective to create a space for other mums who are where I was.
Wanting to connect with their baby & others, but anxious about going out and baby crying.
Having no headspace to think about themselves.
And craving a slice of calm amongst the joy and chaos of motherhood.
Little Leaf classes are designed to be small, supportive and calming - giving you the space to quietly bond with your baby, whilst taking a moment to nurture yourself (because you matter too!).
My baby massage classes run in 4-week blocks each month, in addition to one-off special events throughout the year.
