Creatively Nurtured

More than a mother's group, more than a play group, more than a sensory class

Because holding the experience of motherhood needs more than words.

Early motherhood can feel like one long balancing act — meeting their needs, losing sight of your own.


But the truth is, you’re not meant to disappear so your baby can thrive; you’re meant to grow together.
Here, your bond isn’t something to preserve — it’s something you create, moment by moment, through colour, movement, and gentle noticing.

If you’ve felt the space between you widening under the weight of daily survival, this is where you come home — together.

You’ve been told that “connection just happens,” or that your baby’s wellbeing depends on your calm.
But connection isn’t a state you achieve; it’s a practice you share.

At Creatively Nurtured, we slow down enough to feel that practice — through evidence-based art therapy, attachment-focused support, and nervous-system awareness.
You’ll discover how creativity can become language between you and your baby: a way to see, soothe, and delight in each other.

This isn’t about fixing. It’s about finding your rhythm — two nervous systems, one dance.

Maybe right now..

Maybe you want..

  • Your days blur into feeds and chores, leaving little room for joy.

  • You worry that you’re “not present enough.” 

  • You worry your'e not doing enough to be a "good mum"

  • You long for self care, but everything feels like one more task.

  • You feel bulk guilt when your baby stares while you doom scroll.

  • You find pockets of stillness and play that feed you both.

  • You notice your baby noticing you — and it softens everything.

  • Your creative moments become anchors that hold the two of you steady.

  • You leave each session feeling more attuned, more alive, and more with your baby.

FAQ 

  1. Can my baby really take part?
    Yes. Babies engage through touch, gaze, and sound. Your therapist helps you notice and build on these cues during each session.

  2. What if my baby cries or needs feeding?
    Perfectly fine. Those moments are the work — we integrate them into the process.

  3. Do I need to be artistic?
    Not at all. It’s about connection, not craft.

  4. Is this therapy for me, my baby, or both?
    Both. You’re seen as a unit — two people shaping safety and joy together.

You don’t have to choose between caring for your baby and caring for yourself.
You can nurture both, together — through colour, texture, breath, and presence.
