Programme
From Baby to Toddler
Practical support for the stage between babyhood and toddlerhood.
From Baby to Toddler is an interactive eight-session programme for mothers and young children.
It helps mothers understand the developmental changes ahead, prepare for toddlerhood and build practical confidence for everyday family life.
More than a mother-and-baby class
This programme is designed for the stage after the early newborn period, when babies become more mobile, communicative, independent and emotionally expressive.
The focus is on supporting the mother as well as the child, with practical preparation for the changes that come with toddlerhood.

What the programme covers
Across the eight sessions, we explore:
The transition from babyhood into toddlerhood
Movement, play and everyday learning
Communication before and beyond words
Emotional and behavioural development
The mother’s capacity, identity and changing role
Routines, transitions and participation
Emerging independence and appropriate boundaries
Family patterns and practical preparation for the next stage
Each topic is explored through the wider relationship between the child, the adult, the environment and the demands of everyday family life.
Interactive, practical and grounded in real life
Each session combines:
A focused topic
Facilitated discussion
Practical mother-child activities
Real family examples
Reflection
Simple tools to use at home
The aim is not to give mothers more information to remember. It is to help them understand what is changing and leave with realistic ways to support themselves and their child.
