Expect singing, movement, smiles, cuddles and plenty of baby-led pauses. Babies don’t need to “perform” or join in perfectly — feeding, cuddling, watching and wriggling are all welcome.
A lovely opportunity to meet other parents, build confidence and discover simple movements and activities you can enjoy together at home.

And it’s not just about your baby.
There’s space for you too. You’ll be guided through gentle stretches and mindful movement to release tension, particularly from tired shoulders, arms and the parts of your body that spend so much time feeding, carrying and caring. You’ll learn simple ways to respond to your baby’s cues, build confidence in handling and connecting with them, and take these little moments of connection into everyday life.
Think less “performing a class” and more flowing together a chance to pause, connect, laugh, sing, stretch and enjoy your baby without pressure.
Every session is relaxed, baby-led and welcoming. There’s no expectation for your baby to join in perfectly feeding, cuddling, watching, wriggling, wandering and taking a break are all part of Baby Flow.

Refund & Cancellation Policy
At Doula Diary, I understand that family life can be unpredictable and plans sometimes need to change. My policies are designed to be clear, fair, and supportive while also honouring the preparation, resources, and time that go into each service and class.
Classes (Baby Massage, Baby Yoga, Baby Spa & Wellness Sessions)
Cancellations more than 48 hours before the start of a course:
A refund is available minus a £5 processing/booking fee to cover costs incurred through the booking system.
Alternatively, you may transfer to a future course (subject to availability) with no deduction.
Cancellations within 48 hours of the course start date:
Refunds are not normally available, as your space has been reserved and materials prepared. You may transfer your booking to a friend or request to join a future course if spaces open.
Missed sessions:
Refunds cannot be given for missed sessions, but you are welcome to gift your space to another mum & baby with prior agreement through me.
Birth Confidence Call
A personalised 1 hour session designed to provide support, information, and positivity to expectant parents during their antenatal (before birth) or postnatal (after birth) journey. These sessions can be tailored to address specific concerns or topics you might have, such as:
Navigating Maternity Care: Supporting you to navigate maternity and remain aligned with your birth choices.
Coping techniques for labour: Strategies to help manage pain and stay calm during childbirth.
Birth planning: Discussing your birth plan, preferences, and options.
Induction of labour: Understanding your rights and options if labour induction is being recommended but it is not what you want.
General pregnancy concerns: Addressing any worries or questions you might have about your pregnancy or upcoming birth.
These sessions can be conducted via Video Call and your birth partner or life partner is welcome to join you. The goal is to leave you feeling more informed, prepared, and confident.
