Pregnancy & Under 5s

At The Springfield Project we host a range of activities and services for you and your child, including stay and play groups, practical parenting courses, advice and support services, as well as our two Nurseries. If you’re local to Sparkhill and have a young family, or need some practical support, we are here for you.

Pregnancy & Under 5s The Springfield Project

We have a number of activities for parents and children together including Seedlings Stay and Play, First Words Together, and our Breastfeeding Support Lounge. If you are pregnant or already have a family, ask us about the Parenting Courses offered by Birmingham Family Hub on every aspect of parenthood from pregnancy to teens. These courses will help you prepare yourself for pregnancy, birth and becoming a parent.

We also run a selection of specialist sessions by invitation or referral, including support for children with additional needs, speech and language support, school readiness and other practical support for parents and children alike. If you would like to know more, or have a particular concern, talk to a member of staff at The Children’s Centre and we will be happy to advise you.

Today we celebrated the Big Garden Birdwatch organised by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. 🦜🦩🦚🦤
Giving children the opportunity to explore and see if they could spot how many birds they could see during our Stay &Play session outdoors. 
Children had fun today pretending to fly and hop around like birds. We also shared the story with bird themes called  Owl Babies. 

We discussed Active Azra -  Remembering to "Move More Sit Less and get those Belly Buttons on the move!". Families had a great day and we talked about the physical characters and share their messages with the children and families.  Children under 5 years old  as outlined in the UK Chief Medical Officers Report states that extended periods of inactivity should be broken up by at least light physical activity.
