🩺 Doctor on duty at Soft Steps! 😂

And he's taking his new role very seriously! 🥰

I absolutely love seeing what they get up to when they're left to lead their own play 💛

Oh my gosh, look at the donations we received last week! 🥹💛

Some amazing preloved items that will be great for our Messy Play and Mums Wellbeing sessions, alongside a bundle of brand new items that someone very kindly went out and bought especially for Soft Steps!

I'm so grateful for every single donation. The generosity and support from our community means so much 💛

🥹 This is what Soft Steps is all about.

It's not the most picture perfect photo and the studio certainly isn't tidy but...

This little guy first came to Soft Steps in March, just three days after we opened. Back then, he would sit in the baby corner cooing away at his mum.

Since then, I've watched him grow in confidence, make little friends and reach some very special milestones along the way. He even crawled for the very first time and said his first word here 🥹

Now look at him! He's standing himself up to discover things he's never been able to reach before, curious about everything and independently exploring the studio 💛

Soft Steps is so much more than just a place to play — it's becoming part of their childhood memories and milestones, and that's pretty special 🥰

🎧 Our first Tonies Swap! 🥰

We had our very first Tonie swap in the studio, and its new little owner was very happy with her find! 💛

Hopefully, with a little help, we can get the shelf filled up and have lots more Tonies finding new homes! 🥰

Donations can be dropped into Soft Steps anytime we're open 💛

A little midweek creativity at Mums Wellbeing Hour 🎨🪨

Last week we slowed things down, painted rocks, had a cuppa and enjoyed some time to chat and create together 🤍

No pressure, no expectations — just an hour for mums to switch off, get creative and enjoy some time for themselves.

📍 Wednesday 6pm-7pm

🧸 Teddy Bears’ Picnic – Round Two! 🧺💛

A little look back at our second Teddy Bears’ Picnic on Saturday! 🥰

Thank you so much to everyone who came along and spent the afternoon with us — and of course to all the teddies who came too! 🧸

It was lovely seeing the little ones playing, joining in and enjoying their picnics together 💛

And Honey Bear made an appearance for lots of dancing and photos! 🐻🥰

Thank you for another lovely afternoon at Soft Steps!

📸 My helper may have taken slightly too many photos 😂 Lots more to follow!
