For this series of workshops I am teaming up with Laeticia - a friend, Doula and beautiful soul to combine our interests and offer a small group of mums-to-be the chance to explore their creativity together. 

Our aim is to create a relaxed space where you can connect with your baby, and each others, through the craft of bookbinding and journaling. This event takes the shape of 3 Sunday afternoon workshops that will run over the course of 3 months at my studio in Leith - an easily accessible and cosy space. 

Supported by myself, a practicing artist and bookbinder, and Laeticia, a doula and a mum, you will create a pregnancy journal to record and reflect on your special journey. We will then work towards creating a hand-bound memory book that you can use once your baby is born to share stories, photos and record milestones as they grow.

Each session will be relaxing and an opportunity to spend quality time focusing on your pregnancy - there will be plenty of opportunities  to ask questions around birth and to reflect on your experience . A closed Facebook group will also be set up to support you. We will use it to share useful links, journal prompts and ideas on how to reflect on your pregnancy and connect with your baby.

Each participant will receive  a gift pack at the first session with useful information and creative materials to incorporate into your journal and memory book. Refreshments and tasty treats will also be provided at each session to fuel your creativity and your bump.

Workshops will take place from 1-4.30pm on 22 September, 27 October and 24 November, with the option for a more informal get-together in December (date will be confirmed once the course starts).

This project was born out of a conversation between two friends with a shared passion for community, creativity and cake - we look forward to meeting you and sharing your journey! 

Although you are welcome to sign up to this workshop at any stage of your pregnancy, we recommend being between 12 and 24 weeks when the course starts so that you are able to get the most out of all three workshops.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with Cass on cassbarron.cb@gmail.com or Laeticia at laeticia.huguet@hotmail.fr 


Laeticia has recently started her Doula journey with training from Red Tent Doula, after the birth of her daughter inspired her to help other women birth without fears. She strongly believes in the sacred and healing bond between a mother and child and aims to empower women to believe in their own abilities to birth and nurture. Find out more about her work via her Doula Facebook Page. 


**Spaces on this course are limited and there will be no refunds or transfers once a booking has been made, unless this is due to medical reasons and/or your place can be filled from a waiting list, in which case the full fee will be refunded. If the workshop is cancelled for any reason, you will be offered either a cash refund or the option of being transferred to an alternative event.**
