Thula Mama - an acapella singing group for mums with pre-crawling babies.


Come and settle into a warm cosy sofa with your baby, be brought endless cups of tea and home-made cake, catch up with other mothers (who come back every week!) and sing exquisite songs and lullabies under the guidance of a mum who knows what you really need.


Thula Mama singing group is designed specifically to nourish the needs of mums as well as their babies. Far from a traditional baby music group, at Thula Mama the mothers sing chants, lullabies and songs from around the world in beautiful acapella harmony.


We believe that singing together is a way of developing a sense of community and is a grounding and confidence-building activity for mothers who can often feel very isolated.


Full of laughs, story-sharing, reviving singing, delicious cake and welcome release!


There are spaces for the next half term - starting this Thursday (26th). First session FREE, then ?10 per session, booking per half term. Sessions take place at my home in East Dulwich every Thursday morning between 10 and 11.30am.


Please email Elizabeth to book a free trial session: [email protected]


Check out the facebook page for reviews, examples of the songs we sing and photos of the delicious cakes! www.facebook.com/thulamamaED

Just to say that this really is a lovely group. I've been a going to the group for the last half term and look forward to it every week. It's really nurturing and friendly and a good way to meet other mums. Best of all no twinkle twinkle little star but lovely songs from all over the world...I spend the rest of the week singing them to my baby before I get some new ones at the next session. All the babies seem really blissed out during the sessions...we seem to have very few tantrums or hysterics! I'm not a good singer but Elizabeth is very encouraging and teaches the songs in a way that anyone can pick up. Definitely recommended! Cake 10/10!!

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
