Rainbow Baby

 

When your rainbow baby arrives and you feel ready to slowly return to some sort of normality, we offer a Rainbow Baby Group for a gentle get together for baby and you.  Joining other parent and baby groups can be hard and often uncomfortable. It may seem like everyone has a happy story to tell about their journey to parenthood, and yours is difficult to talk about without fear of upsetting others or talking about experiences that others won't understand.

Rainbow Baby Group

You are very welcome to join us for this gentle social session where you can talk about your worries, how you are feeling; whilst your rainbow baby plays and socialises.  We may arrange specific topics, or invite guests along, for example breastfeeding information, or baby massage. Each session is run by our volunteer Hope, and she brings her young children along too.  Hope is a breastfeeding peer supporter, and is training to become a bereavement midwife. She is extremely knowledgeable and welcoming.

In addition to our group, please also take a look at our funded family days out, and our Christmas event at Somerset Reindeer Ranch, which is open for families with children born before or after the loss. 

Please let us know if are planning to attend by completing the very quick form below - check the venue as we alternate sessions between Compass Wellbeing Sensory Room in Taunton, and North Petherton Community Hall.
