Testimonials

“Dagmar’s teaching was easy to understand and follow, very welcoming and inviting to participate and express thoughts or question. It’s helped me and my partner have a better understanding, as we have no experience with babies yet.“

- B, Before Baby Course

“This course was so well communicated and I feel I have learnt so much to go ahead with - and great baking!”

- W, Before Baby Course

“We like meeting with other parents and chatting about other aspects of parenting that are not always included in antenatal classes, which tend to focus more on the pregnancy rather than life with a new baby. I would definitely recommend this to any new parent that wants to feel a bit more prepared for their little one.”

-Sarah & Tyler, Before Baby Course

“My daughter and I loved and looked forward to this course each week and got a lot out of it. It was a lovely way to meet like minded parents and learn a holistic way of parenting.”

- Abi, Toddler Course

“I absolutely loved this course. It gave me the confidence and skills to build a respectful relationship with my children by trusting my heart and instincts and truly seeing them for who they are.”

- Sandra, Baby Course

“My baby is a lot calmer before bed and if she has a tummy ache, it really helps. I loved how Dagmar explained the benefit of each massage technique.”

- Khloe, Baby Massage Course

“It was a lovely way of spending time with my son and to learn new ways of calming and relaxing him. He sleeps much better and it's just a nice 5-10 minutes at the end of the day with him. Dagmar was very welcoming, and the morning tea was a lovely start to the course.”

- Hannah, Baby Massage Course

“I like the relaxed feel and it was a chance to relax with my daughter and just be for that hour and a half. Dagmar was always so welcoming, interested and caring.”

- Bridget, Baby Massage Course

“I really enjoyed the free play and more confidence in my children. It was a great way to discover new places around Marlborough.”

- Dayna, Nature Play Group

“Nature Play reinforces our love for outdoor spaces and lets the kids test boundaries. There were many times I watched the kids gaining so much confidence in activities like climbing and exploring “spooky” areas. Food’s pretty good too!”

- Nick, Nature Play Group
