Baby Umbrella is an award-winning small charity offering breastfeeding and early parenting support to families in West Kent. Our vision is for every family in West Kent to have access to skilled and compassionate support during their parenting journey. We listen to, support and empower families.

Story

Early parenthood is a time of immense transformation and vulnerability and at Baby Umbrella, we are focused on supporting parents and babies in this life-changing time.

Every year we support over 1,000 families across West Kent with free specialist 1-1 appointments delivered in weekly support groups in Sevenoaks, Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells as well as on Zoom. We also offer a specialist Perinatal Listening Service and social groups.

We offer support with breastfeeding, bottle feeding, expressing breastmilk and introducing solids. We also support families with infant sleep, adjusting to parenthood and much more.

"We feel so lucky to have had specialist support through Baby Umbrella. The advice each time has been excellent and is shared with kindness and no question feels silly or small. We've been three times now and felt very welcome and supported, and feel so comfortable to continue going to sessions as long as we need the support." In person appointment - February 2024

It costs us £40 for each family we see in an individual 40 minute appointment with a specialist. We are a small charity who run all our services for free for the local community and we rely heavily on the fundraising efforts of our volunteers and supporters.

Please support our 2025 Tonbridge Dragon Boat team! Your sponsorship will help us make waves for local families and make a huge difference in our community.
