Essex Babylab Coffee Morning
Event description
Essex Babylab invites parents with babies, parents-to-be, and anyone interested in baby development for a friendly session where we share research insights and practical tips with parents(-to-be) so we can facilitate positive baby development.
Many parents often feel that they need to read parenting textbooks and follow specific rules to be good parents. Yet, we want to help them recognise that they have all it takes to be the real experts of their own baby. By sharing science-based facts and up-to-date research discoveries, we aim to show that there's no clear 'manual' to follow during your journey into parenthood.
Each month will feature a specific theme. To kick off the series, we will be talking about "The Fourth Trimester: Why are babies so needy?"
We will be joined by our own Dr Maria Laura Filippetti who will give us insights from the latest research. The workshop will be run by Jo Cresdee from UK Babies, a community interest company with the purpose of supporting families through pregnancy and into early parenthood.

******** FAQs ********
- Can I bring my child(ren) along?
Of course! Please book a separate ticket(s) for your child(ren) so that we know how many little scientist(s) we are welcoming so we can plan ahead for catering and toys.
- Where should I go on the day?
The event will be held in Essex Business School at University of Essex. Parking is free for all our event attendees. We will provide the details of where to park and where the event will be held nearer the time.
- What shall I expect on the day?
The event usually starts with a short presentation of the theme, including an overview of the latest scientific research on the topic.
