Join our Melody Circle and discover the joy of singing in a welcoming, supportive environment. This is a space where babies can make noise, wriggle and play, but where the aim of the class is to nourish you. 

You do not have to be a singer or read music and you will never audition or sing alone! Led by Laura Blake (Harbour Harmonies), each session introduces beautiful songs in a gentle way, with the group learning together step by step before singing as one, or sometimes even in three-part harmony. 

Singing has been shown to release endorphins and oxytocin, helping to reduce stress, boost wellbeing and foster connection. You'll learn a repertoire of uplifting songs to take home and share with your little one, supporting both their development and your own sense of calm. Research has also shown that group singing can help reduce symptoms of postnatal depression (Fancourt & Perkins, 2018). 

All parents and carers with babies who are not yet walking are warmly welcome.

Cost and bursaries

All of our Early Years term-long sessions cost £60.
