TRIED & TESTED // Barre and Baby
One of my big indulgences during maternity leave has been to sign up to as many mum and baby classes as possible. Our weeks are packed with everything from baby massage and buggy workouts to Sing and Sign and Tots Tunes. While I can assess these classes in terms of their value for money, age […]
