About Us
A little about who we are and what we do
Who we are
Elmswell Baby & Toddler Group is a friendly, community-run group for babies, toddlers and their parents, grandparents and carers in Elmswell and the surrounding villages.
We run weekly Monday morning sessions at Blackbourne Community Centre in Elmswell, providing a warm, safe and stimulating environment where little ones can play, explore and learn — while grown-ups enjoy a well-earned hot drink and some friendly company.
We believe that the early years are a special and sometimes challenging time, and that having a local community to lean on makes all the difference. Whether you are new to the area, a first-time parent or just looking for something fun for your toddler on a Monday morning, you are always welcome here.
