You know it’s summer when the bee orchids are in full bloom 🌷🐝 Thanks to the efforts of the Norwich Big Yellow team in protecting the wild meadows surrounding the store, the rare flowers have been able to grow once again.

It’s easy to ignore your own mental health when you’re a parent, but having a baby can be a time when many of us struggle with anxiety & depression. We have info on our website about how you might be feeling after having a baby: bit.ly/3ladMUo #ParentalMentalHealth

Whilst we want our babies to be warm and comfortable while they sleep, pillows and cot bumpers can be dangerous. If you’ve got questions about your baby’s Moses basket, cot or bedding, here’s some useful information from @LullabyTrust #safersleepweek
As an adult, you probably love having a pillow. But did you know that they can be dangerous for babies? Using a pillow for a child under 12 months can increase the chance of SIDS occurring. Keep your baby’s sleep space clear, firm and flat.

It can be hard work having a baby or toddler. Even good days can feel like you’re repeating the same cycle of feeding, changing nappies, playing and sleeping. Break up the cycle and have a grown-up conversation at one of our free activity groups: bit.ly/2RJbqtK
