NSPCC Baby Steps - Family support services

What we do

Baby Steps is here to help new parents build skills for parenting's joys and challenges.

We help to build confidence and feel ready for the arrival of a new baby.

During the nine group sessions, we will cover a range of parenting tips, topics, and exercises. We tailor our sessions to meet the needs of parents, but we usually cover:

Their Baby's development
What could change for new parents and the people around them
Giving birth and getting to know their baby.
How new parents can look after themselves and their baby.
People and places that can offer support

Who do we support

Baby Steps is a free, friendly group for Parents-to-be in the Cardiff area. Parents can refer themselves, or can be referred by professionals who think they would benefit from support.

New parents facing additional challenges - for example English is their second language, they're having difficulties, or they've experienced trauma - might especially benefit from Baby Steps.
