Happy mother's day UK

As it says on the tin.  I am spending my mother's day, packing cases full of dolls, nappies and pelvises, ready for our open day on the 9th of April.

Busy, busy, busy - open day coming up on April 9th

Very busy getting ready for our open day at the HEART centre in Headingley.  Its a beautiful venue; eco friendly and with a lovely cafe.  Have invested in an A-board to pop outside the centre.  Have some slightly silly but fun (and secretly educational) activities planned for the day. Then I have my daughter's 14th birthday party to look forward to the following day (Oh, actually I'm not invited to that one, just doing all the work...).

We are having an open day!

Saturday 9^th April 10am until 4pm

In the Claremont room at the Headingley Enterprise and Arts Centre, Bennett Road

Headingley Leeds 6

All welcome!

Fun (if slightly silly) activities for everyone, include:

 

Try your hand at childbirth

 Help baby work their way through the pelvis. Try your hand at being a midwife. (OK, it’s not a real baby!).

The nappy change challenge

Scared of changing a nappy?  You should be!

Can you change baby’s nappy in 5 minutes or less?

          Similar to a popular 1970s family game … only messier.

Come and meet us and find out about our classes and events.

Our web page

New website and promoting the company

I have been doing A LOT of work on the website at bumpsbabycareandbeyond.net this week. Have been on annual leave - supposedly - and have worked on it most day from crawling out of bed to around 10pm! Did have a day out on Wednesday though (back on the computer when I got home!) Am quite pleased with it - not too bad for an amateur.  It does what it says on the tin and has all the buttons we need.  Loads quickly, looks nice, easy to navigate and isn't too fussy. Have applied some metags to get some search engine hits but a bit dissappointed with these at present.  It needs to come up consistantly on the first page of google when people search "antenatal classes in leeds" which it isn't at the moment.  So, still working on this one. This blog comes up more often than the website! Getting some ads and listings on the net as well. I'm sure there is much scope for improvement but there is plenty of time for that later.

Have also been trawling the street, mostly around Headingley where our first classes are being held; popping into local businesses with our flyers.  Plenty of positive interest but still no bookings.

New website

Yay! We have a website. It's at bumpsbabycareandbeyond.net.
