Rockabye

Sharing the struggles that all new parents experience can help you feel you are not alone. At Rockabye we aim to provide a non-judgemental and accepting space for you to share your difficulties.

What is Rockabye?

  • Are you finding it hard adjusting to being a new parent?
  • Are you feeling anxious or depressed during pregnancy or since the birth of your baby?
  • Are you struggling to understand what your baby is trying to communicate?
  • Would you like a safe space to explore any of the struggles and worries associated with being a new parent?
  • Would you like to have some fun with your baby with relaxing music, beautiful scarves, soothing bubbles?

Rockabye runs groups in children’s centres across Bristol to support you and nourish your relationship with your baby during pregnancy and in the postnatal period.

Course leaders were fab, knowledgeable, kind, open and caring. It was well structured while not feeling rushed

The Antenatal group inspired me to get back in touch with my creative side

Group leads are non-judgmental, supportive and welcoming

Sometimes talktime can provoke an unexpected emotional reaction but I feel happy Rockabye is a safe space

Excellent leaders, really supportive, very understanding and intuitive

Protected safe space, something consistent to look forward to

The joy of music, protected time with mummy, social opportunities, different resources than at home

I enjoyed meeting new friends, sharing thoughts and feelings without feeling judged
