Keeping babies safe starts with sharing trusted, evidence-based advice.

We’re proud to share that Laura has successfully completed The Lullaby Trust’s SIDS and Safer Sleep Training. At Natal Bean, we’re committed to ensuring the guidance we provide to families reflects the latest evidence and national recommendations.

One of the most important messages every parent should know is: “Always place your baby on their back to sleep, in a clear cot or sleeping space” Lullaby Trust

Together, we can help every baby have the safest possible start.

☀️ OUR AUGUST SCHEDULE IS HERE! ☀️

This isn’t just another monthly timetable…It’s our final month at Stubbington Scout Hall before we open the doors to our brand new home at Hopscotch Ashcroft this autumn!

Over the past few years, Stubbington has been where thousands of conversations have started, friendships have grown, parents have found support, babies have taken their first steps, and families have discovered they were never alone.

So throughout August we’re celebrating everything that has made The Natal Bean so special, with an incredible line-up of classes, workshops and support.

Whether you’ve been with us since day one or have never visited before, we’d love to welcome you this August.

We would love you to help make these final Mondays at Stubbington ones to remember before we begin the next exciting chapter. Then… it’s on to Hopscotch Ashcroft this autumn, where we’ll be able to support even more families in our beautiful new permanent home.

Come and be part of the final chapter at Stubbington… before the next adventure begins.
