Hello September! (How?!) 🌼

Is it just me or have these summer months absolutely flown by? I can’t believe we’re now heading in to the ‘ber’ months.

Next week we began our new term of pregnancy yoga, baby massage & baby explorers courses which are all full! You have no idea how happy this makes me and as always I’m so thankful for all of your support 🫶🏻
It’s also my last courses for a while as this term takes me right up to my maternity leave… it really feels like the countdown is on now!!

The one off classes are also available to book for the next few weeks & I’d love to be able to see you before I head off for a few weeks 🩷

A little honest post about something I find really hard about running Little Bea… the fact that you never really know when someone’s last class is going to be 💫

My current courses are coming to an end this week, and as always, it’s made me think about this a lot. Over the weeks, I get to know you. I know your names and your babies names, I know what you’ve been up to, you hear about the good weeks and the difficult ones and you become a tiny part of their journey into parenthood.

Some finishing their courses have only been with me for one block, others have been coming to Little Bea for months. And then there are the ones who come along to one off classes but I might see them regularly for a little while. Either way you become such a familiar face and then suddenly without even realising it, it becomes the last time I see you.

I think that’s one of the hardest parts of running a business where you become so personally invested in the people who come through your doors. I care when people leave. I notice when familiar faces aren’t there anymore. But then I remind myself that Little Bea is just one little chapter in someone’s life and whilst I might wish I could keep all of these families forever, I know there is always going to become a time where Little Bea just isn’t for them anymore.

So I guess what I’m trying to say is, if you’ve ever come to Little Bea, whether it was for one class or many, thank you. You might not realise it, but you’ve left a little mark on my little business and on me too 🤍

Maternity leave update 👶🏼✨

So many of you have been asking what my plan is for maternity leave… and if I’m completely honest, I don’t really have a fixed plan. My current ‘loose’ plan is to finish classes around the middle of October and, all being well, return to some classes in January/February. That being said, I’m going to have to see how I’m feeling, how baby is doing, and what feels right for us.

One question I get asked a lot is whether someone else will be taking over my classes while I’m on maternity leave. And unfortunately the answer is no. As Little Bea is just me, and always has been, it doesn’t really make sense to train someone to take over for such a short period of time. On top of that, when you’ve poured your heart into building your own business, it feels quite hard to hand it over, even temporarily. So Little Bea will stay as the Little Bea you all know, just with a short pause.

External classes run by our lovely & will still continue as normal though 💫

If I’m honest, it feels scary knowing that I’ll be off for a few months, especially over Christmas. You can’t help but think ‘will people forget about Little Bea?’ , ‘Will people come back to classes when I return?’ & ‘Will it be like starting all over again?’ But I also know that this is such a special chapter of my life and I want to soak up every moment as I know it goes so quickly. Navigating maternity leave whilst being self employed is hard, but I just keep trying to tell myself it will all work out.

Thank you so much for your patience, understanding and continued support- you have all been so amazing throughout my pregnancy! I will of course keep you updated as my plans become a little clearer, but for now, that’s the plan 🤍

If you’ve ever walked into one of my classes and found yourself saying, ‘I’m so sorry...’ - this is your reminder that you never need to apologise!

Little Bea was created to be a place where babies can be babies and parents can simply be themselves. I want every family who walks through the door to feel comfortable, welcomed and accepted exactly as they are. Whether it’s your first class or your fiftieth, this is always a space where real life happens 🤍

The gorgeous selection of toys from our shelf have been so popular over the last few weeks 🧸✨

It’s been so lovely seeing so many of you treating your little ones or picking up the perfect gift!

Everything on the shelf is available to purchase in the studio now, so please feel free to have a little browse in your next class, or pop in when you’re next passing to take a look. Annette comes across every few weeks to change up the products & it’s always so nice to see what lovely things she has 🤎

I’m back… 💛

After taking some time away from Little Bea to go on holiday, I can honestly say I really needed that break. So much has happened over the last year and I think I underestimated just how much I needed time to properly switch off, slow down and reset.

I’m super lucky to have a job that doesn’t feel like work, but it can be really full on so 2 weeks of lovely food & drink, sunshine, exploring and pool days has been so nice. We also celebrated being half way to meeting Baby T, which I’m feeling so grateful for!

Stepping away gave me space to rest and come back feeling refreshed. And while it was so needed, it’s been so lovely to be back at Little Bea today.

I can’t wait to see you all soon 💫

Just some more of our gorgeous family minis with .k.bphotography 💫✨

These sessions have become some of our most popular sessions and looking through the pictures it’s so clear to see why… relaxed, no pressure, family friendly photo sessions ending in the best results!

We have already been discussing our next sessions, which will likely be September/October time to make sure we get some more in before I have some time off for my maternity leave 💛

Family minis at @ Little Bea with .k.bphotography 📸🤍

A few weeks ago we welcomed the lovely Sarah back to Little Bea for one of our Family Mini sessions. Sessions which have become so popular and were both so grateful to you all for loving these as much as we do!

The photographs are always beautiful, and it’s a real privilege to be able to host these sessions here at Little Bea. Thank you to all the families who joined us, and of course to Sarah at .k.bphotography for creating such gorgeous memories.

More gorgeous photos to share with you soon 🫶🏻
