Bumps and Babies

A lovely opportunity to meet other bumps or mums of young babies. These sessions are held on various days each month and hosted by other NCT members. Anyone is welcome to pop round for a cuppa and a chat. Ring ahead first or just pop in. A real lifeline in those early days! All bumps and babies welcome.

Full details of these sessions can be found in the branch Newsletter. For dates and times see Events. For location and contact details email banburynct.enquiries@gmail.com.

Crawlers and Explorers

Crawlers and Explorers takes place behind the Pepperpot Pub in Grimsbury Community Centre, Burchester Place, Banbury every Tuesday 10-11.30. Everyone is welcome - only £2 per family, including refreshments. Lots of babies and toddlers all having fun and the chance to have a cup of tea with your friends. There is plenty of space to run or crawl and loads of toys to try out. There are also more structured activities such as an art activity every week and a singing session.

We hope that Crawlers and Explorers will be a fun and stimulating environment for those who have outgrown Bumps and Babes. Please feel free to just turn up, or email banburynct.enquiries@gmail.com for more information.

Baby Café - Breastfeeding Support

The NCT supports the Baby Café every Tuesday from 1:30pm until 3:30pm. Come along to Britannia Road Children's Centre, Grove Street, Banbury where there will be a host of other mums, babies, a midwife and health visitor to chat to for support and information with breastfeeding. Older children also welcome.
