Bump to Baby is a free programme for pregnant people living in North East Essex who may benefit from extra support with weight, nutrition, movement and wellbeing during pregnancy.
We focus on real-life support: safe movement, balanced nutrition for weight management, emotional wellbeing, connection and kindness - not diets, judgment or pressure.
