Let’s get Baby Moving

Posted on by Stephanie Scott

Baby Move is a programme that helps your baby stay flexible whilst also helping you stretch out your muscles from pregnancy. When babies are born they want and need to be chatted to, played with and loved and this programme is a lovely way for you to be able to do that with them.

The programme has many benefits for your baby:

  • Improves digestion and provides relief from colic
  • Strengthens their muscles to help them sit up, crawl and walk
  • Helps baby relax and settle them into sleep routines
  • Encourages brain development
  • Builds their confidence and trust
  • Keeps them flexible when they grow older
