Stoke On Trent

Does anyone know any photographers based in Stoke-on-Trent? 📸 I’m looking for someone who offers regular photoshoots, as well as cake smash sessions for my little one’s 1st birthday and a mum-and-daughter shoot. 💕

Does anyone else think the way the recovery wards are set out are a joke? I don’t know if it’s genuinely my hormones making me insensitive. But I had a EMCS 3 days ago and I’m on the ward. I find the night time midwife’s so rude and ignorant. Every time there’s a new admission brought on every light is turned on loud noises etc waking mums and babies up when we’re meant to be getting rest and recovery? I’ve not slept more than 4hrs in over 72 hours. Medication is constantly late so not keeping on top of pain, having to remind them half an hour before and even then it’s probably an hour late. Ill be honest I can’t wait for me and my baby to get home I’ll definitely recover better in my own comforts

Are there any mums in the area that would actually want to meet up for walks, coffee dates, shopping trips.

My little girl is 7 months (Jan baby) and just feel like I’ve struggled to connect with other mums. Would love someone to hang out with and talk to about parenting and all its challenges.

Can anyone recommend any good prenatal yoga classes in Stoke-on-Trent and/or Staffordshire?

Does anyone recommend any soft play areas for 13 month old? I’ve tried to look at ones within Stoke or as close to but most don’t have brilliant baby areas .. would prefer somewhere that’s more tailored towards younger children and where can get a brew and that?
