So what makes Daisy Baby different?
In a typical Daisy Baby™ class, baby will spend an abundance of time in mummy’s arms, enjoying all of the positive touch and soft stretch of a more traditional class but delivered in a more ‘easy to digest’ format, all set to a beautiful ‘baby calming’ sound track. This sound track has been carefully composed to embrace the benefits of white noise and rhythm vital triggers for engaging baby’s natural calming reflex (a reflex which is subtly stimulated throughout the class). We use these sounds and music to help install rhythm (a wonderful learning tool for baby as not only so soothing but also vital for future linguistic skills), to create learning experiences which are defined and recognised easily, and to help mum and baby feel serene!
Just like Daisy Birthing® rhythmical, repetitive movements are used coupled with words, affirmations and sounds to install muscle memory both in mummy and baby. This process not only helps baby adjust to the world outside of the womb, gently integrating their primitive reflexes but also allowing them to learn how to uncurl physically and emotionally but also helps mum to find confidence in handling and calming baby. As many health care professionals have observed it is instinct to want to calm your baby but not necessarily to know how - we help mums follow this instinct and understand baby calming.
Each class follows a very similar format, because at a time when everything else is changing, leaving mum feeling all at sea, this familiarity and routine is a real source of comfort (along with the wonderful peer to peer support in class of course). Mums love that they come into class each week and know the structure and can simply relax and enjoy, focusing on how their baby is changing (rather than having to keep up with an ever changing clas programme).
Each week mummy and baby enjoy:
Meet & Greet to the Daisy Lullaby – a chance for mums and babies to welcome each other, enjoy some gentle movement & celebrate that class is beginning. Mummies love our Daisy Bells welcome and the physical benefits it brings too!
Wind Chimes Wake Up – As the gentle lull of chimes floats through the air, mummies & babies work with naming exercises, routines to help embrace sleep or lack of it and a beautiful Happy Sun routine, reminiscent of the much loved ‘Pregnant& Proud’ Daisy Birthing exercise.
Lullaby Soft Stretch– A more traditional oily massage or baby soft stretch segment, peppered with use of sound and sonic vibration; whilst this calls for baby to begin to adjust to time lying independent from mummy's arms, we use lots of visual engagement and frequent 'in arms' refrains, to ensure mummy and baby feel ok!
Social Baby Time – As the happy gurgle of babies is heard in the background, mummies and babies know its social baby time. They all love the chance to get up, get moving and get to know each other. 5 Little Monkies is a much loved sequence!
From babbling babies to babbling brooks – A water inspired segment which allows mummies to reverse the waves of labour, with gentle abdominal closing and introduces movements to aid babies’ sense of gravity and balance.
White noise and relaxation – A wonderful wind down segment; the white noise calms baby and with the re-introduction of the hypnotic Daisy Birthing music Silver Lake, both mum & baby relax into familiar surroundings.
We are now taking bookings for new courses starting in September in Kettering, Peterborough and Huntingdon, so reserve your place now!
