Peekaboo Bottoms now has its very own classroom to offer local customers a wide variety of mom and baby classes!

We hope you enjoy our new facility as much as we do!!

Prenatal Yoga - Provides a safe and supportive class for pregnant women to come together - sharing in a practice designed to promote optimal health and wellness for both mom and growing baby. These classes are specifically designed to support a more comfortable and healthy pregnancy and to prepare for labour with special practices of movement, breathing and meditative techniques. Ideal for women in their second and/or third trimesters. Previous yoga experience is NOT necessary. Please pre-register by calling the store.

Mom & Baby Yoga - Provides an opportunity for you to regain strength and flexibility, to bond with your baby in an enjoyable activity and to make friends with other moms. The focus of the class is on movements and breathing specifically tailored for new moms. The babies benefit from the bonding time with mom, baby massages and the stimulating environment of new baby friends. Designed for babies from newborn until they begin scooting/crawling, special attention is placed on developing mom's core strength and stability. Previous yoga experience is not necessary, and makes a great transition class for those who have practiced yoga before pregnancy. Please pre-register by calling the store.

Mommy Cafe - Sometimes being a mommy can be difficult, and it helps to have other mommy friends to vent to, gain experience from, and just chat with! Someone who knows what you are going through, and can be supportive when you need it. Come join us for an hour long mommy get-together every other week in our classroom! There will be coffee and tea for you, and toys for the kids. This will be a relaxed and casual atmosphere, just so you can chat with other moms, and your kids can play with other kids!

Au Lait Cafe - When you choose to breastfeed, you are making a wonderful decision for your baby. Many moms think it will be easy, and that they will know what they are doing from the get go. After all, it’s natural, we were meant to do this! Sometimes, however, it can be challenging, draining, and we don’t always know what to do, so it helps to know other breastfeeding mamas that you can chat with, vent to, and get tips from. Peekaboo Bottoms will be holding a breastfeeding mama get-together every other week! Come in, enjoy some coffee or tea, and chat with other like minded mamas. Ask your questions, gain experience, or just make new friends! This is a peer mentoring group, and will be a relaxed and casual, non-judgemental environment, where you can feel safe asking your questions!

Storytime & Crafts - (18 months - 5 years) A parent and child workshop (not drop-off) designed to engage children in a story and take the story a step further by 'creating' a craft based on the topic/theme that the store presents. Current literacy strategies will be employed throughout the session in order to maximize the experience and learning for the child. Please pre-register by calling the store.

Baby Wearing Workshop - Designed as a casual get together, this workshop will give you an introduction to baby wearing and demonstrate many different styles of baby carriers. If you have a carrier and are having difficulties using it, this is a great opportunity to learn more, and chat with other parents.

Make Your Own Baby Food - 3 Classes available....
Beginnings with the Basics – Ages 4-8 months
Do you eat a lot of jarred, canned or processed food? If the answer is no, then why should your baby? The food you give your baby now, in the earliest months, will help shape you child’s tastes for many years to come. In this class you will learn how and when to introduce solids and learn which foods are the best “first foods” your baby can enjoy!

Flavours and Finger Foods – Ages 8-12 months
If you feed your baby bland, processed jarred baby food, your baby will be accustomed to bland, processed food. On the other hand, if you feed your baby a variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, grains and meat flavoured with herbs and spices, you are priming your child’s palate for a lifetime of healthful eating habits and culinary enjoyment! In this class you will learn how to widen the horizon by exploring flavour with new foods as well as the use of herbs and spices!

Textures and Tastes for Toddlers – Ages 12-18 months
Toddlers are lively, curious and FULL of personality. So why should their food be bland and uninteresting? With fresh ingredients and seasoning and a focus on nutrition, this class takes an adventurous yet sensible approach to feeding toddlers! In this class you will learn how to enter the world of flavour with recipes that can be enjoyed by baby and the whole family and how to make trying new foods fun for even the most reluctant child! Please pre-register by calling the store.

St. John's Ambulance First Aid/CPR- Designed for new parents, caregivers, or anyone who would just like a refresher course. While many people are required training through work, others have never taken a course! It is important to learn about choking, CPR and basic first aid, especially if you are new parents/grandparents. While the course is infant and child specific, you will also learn adult CPR (children 8 years+ should have adult CPR used on them!). The course will include a certificate and take home manual. This course should be repeated every 2 years. Please pre-register by calling the store.

Scrapbooking - This workshop is designed to give you an opportunity to preserve your memories and photos creatively through scrapbooking. During this 2 hour workshop, you will have the opportunity to use Creative Memories scrapbooking tools to complete your album projects. Fee includes use of non-consumable tools and products, as well as a Creative Memories consultant to assist you. Pre-ordering of products is available, to have them at the workshop. Please pre-register by calling the store.

Kindermusik - Kindermusik is the first and #1 most trusted name in music and movement classes for children birth to age 7. Current research suggests that music targets every area of the brain, thus providing the very best opportunities for learning. In class, your child will be immersed in a safe and developmentally appropriate and engaging environment. Using a carefully crafted multi-sensory approach, children experience music and movement in a way that allows them to express themselves freely and tap into their own creativity. While your child is engaged, you will connect with other local families, enjoy a rich, bonding experience with your child and discover how music makes parenting at home easier and more authentic!
