I’m Julie Bickerton, founder of Nomad Therapy, here to support and nurture you throughout pregnancy, postnatally and through menopause.

My philosophy is to promote positive touch and accessible yoga. Providing a safe space where we can be honest and open about our experiences as women and building a community where friendships are made.

After my training as a baby massage instructor and having my son, my fascination with babies continued to grow and broaden.

Now in my midlife I am expanding my experience to support women through this period of their incredible lives.

I feel very lucky in my vocation. I love what I do and I continue to learn from every woman and baby that I meet.

My name is Carla and I am a fully qualified Birthlight and STA infant aquatics teacher. In 2005, I trained with a swim school in Cambridge which was ran by Sally Lomas and Amanda Gawthrope. I also worked at Birthlight’s headquarters in admin for a while too.  Having taught babies to swim over many years, including my own daughter, I have become increasingly aware of the benefits for newborn babies of learning water confidence from a very young age and the parent and baby bonding that results from being in water. Our aim is to bring parent and baby together through our swim splash classes in a safe, friendly and fun environment that best suits the needs of everyone involved.

Louise A Whitehead – Owner of Babies at Ease – International Association of Infant Massage (IAIM) Baby Massage Instructor, Birthlight Baby & Toddler Yoga Instructor.
I have worked within early years sector for over 20 years, in primary schools, playgroups, nurseries, a children centre and currently working part time as a Family Support Worker in the new Early Childhood and Family Service (Kings Lynn & West Norfolk).
I ‘m married with two children an 11 year old daughter and 8 year old son, so they keep me busy when I’m not working.
My highest qualification I hold is a BA Hons in Early Childhood Studies, I’m DBS checked and hold an up to date Paediatric First Aid Certificate.
When my children were born I really wanted to attend some baby yoga sessions. I could not find any in West Norfolk. So, when I had the opportunity to gain some training I jumped at the chance! I travelled to London and completed a 3-6 mth baby yoga course for 2 days and then went back a few months later to complete a 6-12mth baby yoga and toddler to preschool yoga for 4 days. I have been International Association of Infant Massage trained for 5 years and have loved every session since then.
So 3 years ago I started Babies at Ease.
Below is a short explanation of Baby massage and Baby yoga.
Baby massage – The IAIM baby massage course draws from both the Indian and Swedish massage traditions as well as incorporating principles from yoga and reflexology. The sessions teacher care givers a sequence of rhythmic stokes and soothing holds which have been developed and refined over many years. The four main area of benefit are Interaction and bonding, relaxation, relief, stimulation. Massaging your baby provides a wonderful opportunity for expression your love, whilst meeting the high need for touch and affection that is do essential for the healthy development of all babies.
Baby yoga – Birthlight baby yoga sessions are inspired from the approach of the Peruvian Amazon native people and some traditional techniques used with infants in India. The years of experience of the founder of Birthlight Fancoise Freedman and research underline the integrated set of exercises presented in these courses. Babies have an open hearts and minds and are ready to embrace new experiences. They are eager for communication and interaction. Their bodies are flexible and unfolding. Yoga provides the stimulation of touch, movement and rhythm as well as the stillness of deep relaxation. The loving handling of babies during yoga sessions and the shared enjoyment of the experience for both carer and baby promotes early bonding and creates a secure and happy foundation of well-being. Baby Yoga opens our heart to allow energy to flow and communication to develop between carer and baby.
Toddler Yoga – Birthlight toddler sessions are about stretching, moving and relaxation together and have been developed from the firm foundations in baby yoga. Toddler yoga offers a whole new experience of fun for the young child and the moves and sequences offers support in every area of their development, physical, cognitive, social and emotional. Children learn through their senses, enjoyable and meaningful activities are remembered and help establish patterns of learning and an understanding of the world around them. In toddler Yoga we being to use stories and imaginative games, often inspired by the children themselves. The sessions offer a wonderful opportunity for family bonding, making new friends and support every area of development. Toddler yoga is a combination of baby yoga approach for toddlers and pre school children. Using songs and rhymes alongside movement and stretching, the sessions are designed to support the transition from babyhood to independent movement. Children and their carer are brought together in an holistic, yoga based experience.

Navigation, Intuition and Instinct

… knowing what your options are and how to navigate the pathway is so important … even the suggestion of booking in a sweep starts that ripple off …. go with your intuition and instincts – what feels right for you … navigate, negotiate and have those sensible conversations that support you and your baby so that you get the most out of the journey into motherhood and the best start.

If you are looking for a class that supports you in every way possible then please do connect … spaces available and it’s so much more than a pregnancy yoga class in the traditional sense. A Ripple Effect class is a “one-stop” shop … you get so much in terms of antenatal education, an amazing tool box for pregnancy, labour, postpartum and your everyday life which has yoga, relaxation techniques, breath work, “hypnobirthing” techniques (supporting those who have been to other classes or accessed online platforms), rebozo and self care … as well as meeting other fab ladies who are also on this journey to motherhood. They are a treat and certainly not to be missed. Add in the gorgeous bespoke Space you have a recipe that will support you all the way …

A little about me … I am a gentle soul … I pride myself on the classes I offer and the amazing work that has been shared into the community over the last 18 years … I am sure that as you journey deeper into the classes available in the area you will no doubt be seated next to someone who has been along to a Ripple class and believes that everyone needs a “Claire” … 1200 babies and families to date and 2 of my own doesn’t mean I am an expert but I am hoping I can help you shed some light to support you with your little one.

Look forward to connecting with you.

Baby Yoga

The gentle movements, focus on your baby and will aid circulation and digestion as well as support muscle tone, coordination, and the development of your baby’s body awareness. Baby Yoga also includes the opportunity to explore movement together and plenty of time to engage and be present with your baby.

 

Baby Massage

Baby massage allows you to enjoy special, focussed, one-to-one time with your baby in a relaxing environment. There are numerous benefits to massage too as the strokes will stimulate all of your baby’s major body systems and support with relief from constipation or teething as well as your baby’s relaxation as the massage supports the release of calming oxytocin. Only you will massage your baby and the strokes will cover baby’s legs, arms, tummy, chest, face and back.

 

Toddler Yoga

Yoga-inspired poses, stretches and movements, weaved amongst songs, rhymes and stories, create an inspiring, fun and engaging class for toddlers. Weekly themes keep little ones interested, whilst the classes also introduce your toddler to concepts of relaxation, breathing and gratitude.
