Stroud Maternity Hospital, Field Road, Stroud. GL5 2JB
This is a singing group for pregnant women, new mums and babies held every Thursday morning in Stroud. This is a Stroud area based group, connected to Stroud Maternity Unit and has been running since 2017. Currently this session is FREE to attend as they are kindly funded by Stroud Hospitals League of Friends.
MAMASINGS FACEBOOK GROUP : Regular updates can be found on the MamaSings Facebook Group which is restricted to Stroud area based new mums to join. Please only request to join this group if you live locally and are currently or intend on attending these sessions. I will post updates, cancellations or information regarding the sessions in the group.
The repertoire of songs are repeated regularly enough so that once you learn them they are easy to refresh each week during the sessions. They will become part of the ‘sound-track’ to your babies early years. The songs will soon become ingrained so they are easy to remember any time you feel like singing with your baby and anytime you need a soothing and comforting familiar lullaby to ease both parent and child.
