Mini Beasts in the Dark Wood
Step into our little mini world, where the deep dark forest comes alive!
Next Tuesday, 6th October, we're heading back into the deep dark wood in search of our mini beast and all his creepy crawly friends.
Are you brave enough to join us?
Our immersive storytelling sessions aren't just something to watch. Little ones and their adults step inside the story. Lanterns glow, cobwebs shimmer and mossy hideaways wait to be explored, so babies and toddlers can touch, listen, wonder and move through the tale together with you. It's playful, sensory-rich, gently regulating, and a beautiful way to connect as the evenings draw in.
Where to find us on Tuesday 6th:
🕷 Lullaby Baby (pre-sitting babies): 5 spaces left
🕷 Sensory Seekers (older sititing~crawling babies): FULLY BOOKED
🕷 Curiosity Patch Wildlings (toddlers~ afternoon): 7 spaces left
📍 The Village Hub, 861 London Road
Spaces are limited, so tap the links in our bio. Or DM to get discounted blocks
We went into the deep dark wood and found EVERYONE!
We said goodbye to September with an adventure through the deep dark wood, and it was pure magic. Fairy lights, mossy paths, glowing toadstools and a little band of friends we met along the way. The cunning fox, the cheeky mouse, the wise owl, the slithering snake and, of course, the Gruffalo himself made an appearance.
I'm so happy with how this set-up came together, and even happier with my little hand-made characters. Every cut and brushstroke was worth it to watch tiny explorers creep in with wide eyes and choose their own kind of brave.
This is what I love most: storytelling, regulation, connection, sensory play and curiosity, with all of us being fully in the moment. Out of our heads, into our hands, and stepping through our story journey together
Thank you to every family who joined us. You made the wood feel alive. Next week its time to find our mini beasts.....

High Vibe Fest..... what a day!!!
Yesterday I got to bring Music is Medicine and my Rave Reset back into the High Vibe Fest - UK Event space for another year, and it never gets old sharing this work with people, or watching it completely transform someone. When you give people the space, the time, and the tools to listen to music and move with intention, to let go and dance like a four-year-old, the freedom that comes from that is magic. The shift in the room was something else to witness. Everyone danced. Everyone had rhythm. Everyone looked amazing. And more importantly, EVERYONE was smiling and having fun.
But beyond the movement, it was a deeply inspiring day, surrounded by women who lift each other up. The incredible Lenka with cacao and meditation. The wonderful Kerry from sheshoots empowering women to feel amazing in front of the camera. The awe-inspiring Luinluland bringing her self-love revolution, inspiring story and a wardrobe of dreams for us to step into our power in. The brilliant 🌻Cat Googe | The Joy Queen with laughter yoga. A day to let go of the old, find joy in the moment and shake a leg as we move forwards. Lots of lovely new connections, and a new refusal to try and fit into boxes any longer.
It was everything I teach others to live by in the MIM side of my business: don't make yourself small. For anyone! Stop trying to fit in or fade into the background. Dare to express yourself, through what you wear, who you connect with, the path you're on, how you move, the music you listen to, the things you want to do, your purpose.
A day to give you back your sparkle and a kick up the arse to say "f**k no" to the things you're no longer willing to carry forward. Let go of what's holding you still. Dare to be seen. Dare to sparkle. No one can do you better than YOU.
And my biggest takeaway? Be more like a four-year-old. Be more playful. Find the joy and wonder we lose growing up.
And always remember women supporting women, cheering each other on, being playful together, is one of the most incredible spaces to be in. What a privilege to be a part of something so magnificent!
As Luinluland says "Let's go mother f**kers!!"

Deep in the wood, where the curiosity patch grows,
A mouse tiptoed forth on the trail no one knows.
"Is the Gruffalo real?" all the little ones cried,
So we followed his paw-prints, deep into the wide.
Where lullabies rock the babes soft in our arms,
Baby massage weaving safety and calm.
The sensory seekers now wriggle and creep,
Through owl-hooted branches and shadows so deep.
Then wildlings come stomping, both walking and talking,
Past terrible claws and a terrible-tusked gawking.
With rhyme in the rustle and song in the breeze,
We'll dance with the Gruffalo under the trees.
So bring your small creatures, from babes to preschoolers,
For massage, for movement, for songs and for rulers
Of make-believe forests where nothing's too scary,
Just Coco, the Gruffalo, and one mouse so wary.

Beyond that delicious newborn scrunch....
This is the fourth trimester, one of the biggest transitions of your life, and somehow, it's the one that gets skimmed over the fastest.
The world tells you it's the "newborn phase," that you'll be back on your feet by six weeks. Visitors stop showing up. The check-ins slow down. Your village quietly disappears, right as your hormones plummet and sleep deprivation kicks in.
And somewhere in that six week window, life can start to feel really hard as you navigate this beautiful, disorienting newborn bubble, with the unspoken expectation that you should be doing it all on your own.
You shouldn't have to.
That's why the Nurtured Newborn Circle exists.
Two hours, just for you and your baby (under 14 weeks), where you're guided through in-depth baby massage and soft movement tips, techniques and flows to support digestion, release physiological flexion, and build deep connection.
But this isn't just about baby. This is about you too, so there's a focus on your postpartum mental health, your wellbeing, and your nervous system, as you learn to regulate together, side by side.
A space to feel seen, heard, and held, not just as a mum, but as a whole person moving through this chapter. Holding space for you so you can focus on holding your baby.
We would love to welcome you into the next circle as you navigate this chapter.

Bespoke Babies ~ your little group, your way!
Maybe you’ve got a little group of friends with babies around the same age. Or perhaps you’re all at completely different ages and stages, but you’d love to come to a session together and have something that feels made just for you.
That’s exactly what Bespoke Babies is all about.
Gather a group of 6–15 mums or dads and we can create a one-off session or a little series, built around your babies, your stage of parenthood and what you’d love to explore together.
We can mix and match elements from across the With CoCo world, or create something completely new, which is always a welcome invitation.
Think…
✨ Nurtured Newborn
✨ Mothers Blessing
✨ Developmental baby & infant massage
✨ Lullabies, music, song & rhyme
✨ Gentle movement
✨ Nervous system regulation & mindfulness
✨ A specific developmental focus
✨ Sensory-rich play & exploration
✨ A beautiful seasonal or story-led theme
✨ Or simply a bit of everything you fancy
You choose the vibe. I build the experience around you.
Sessions can be 2 hours or created as a series, with flexibility around days and times to make it work for your group.
And because the little things matter, you’ll be welcomed into our beautiful, cosy The Village Hub studio with hot drinks and yummy snacks included, offering a chance to slow down, connect, learn, play and enjoy your babies together.
For the group of friends who keep saying “we should do something together” but can never agree on what that is.
This is your sign!
📍 The Village Hub, Chalkwell Park
☆ Groups of 6–15 mums or dads
☆ One-off sessions or series
☆ Hot drinks + snacks included
Tell me what you’re dreaming up, and let’s create it together. Get in touch
In the early years side of my business, I build mini worlds for little ones to explore, and it will never get boring.
Every week we get to leave the everyday behind and step into a brand new story world with your babies, toddlers and preschoolers. That's the magic of it...we build the world together, and then you and your little one get to live inside the story for an hour and a half. Massage, music, movement, sensory play, song, all woven through whatever adventure we're on that week.
This week it was The Tiger Who Came to Tea, Judith Kerr's 1968 classic and one I grew up with myself, so getting to bring it to life with your little ones was seriously special. Next week we're off into an enchanted autumn woodland, wher Red Riding Hood will be waiting on the path, we'll pop in on Grandma (and dodge the wolf), visit Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and who knows... we may spot a fairy or two.
There are a few spaces left if you want to join the story:
☆ 2 spaces — Lullaby Baby Massage
☆ 2 spaces — Sensory Seekers
☆ 6 spaces — Curiosity Patch Wildlings
These sessions are our favourite way to bring storytelling to life, with loving touch as a universal language, music and voice for language development, rhyme and rhythm for regulation, and sensory-rich play for building confident, resiliant explorers, all rolled into one beautiful little world.
Come and step into it with me

Music really IS Medicine!
We cant wait to share our passion for music as medicine with you tonight. Frankie | Flow & Glow ✺ Yoga + Colon Hydrotherapy and I are both going to be using music to take you on a journey to release, to reset, to let go of the old and create space for the new. A season of change calls for a season of recalibration, and wherever you're starting from tonight, the music will meet you there and help you find your way back home to yourself.
So much love has gone into the curation of this evening. Every single song is there for a reason and there's real science behind it too. The tempo, the melody, the lyrics, the transitions, the genres, all chosen to take your nervous system on a specific journey, not just play in the background of one.
We're coming from two different practices, but tonight we're both speaking the same language of music as medicine. If you're joining us tonight, we cant wait for you to be part of this beautiful offering. And for those who can't make it this month, don't worry, we've got some really special ways to keep using music as a tool for regulation and reset through the darker autumn and winter months, and on into 2027. Keep your eyes peeled you lovely lot!
