0Stylish Chelsea members club for pregnancy and beyond
When I passed Mermaid Maternity Retreat when walking down King’s Road yesterday, I was excited to see a new buggy ramp being built just inside the main entrance downstairs. This ramp means it will be even easier for new mums to run into the beautiful space at Mermaid with a screaming baby in urgent need of a feed or nappy change.
Mermaid, now advertising on Mummy in the City, offers more than boutique hotel-style accommodation for recovering and getting support after birth, which I’ve written about HERE. It’s also a member’s club, providing a unique opportunity for local mums to feel a sense of community, make new friends, gain access to a myriad of services and classes, a stylish restaurant and a welcoming space for feeding (see picture above).
Mermaid Wellness Membership is only £30 a month, and there are options to add on extras to the membership to take part in a selection of antenatal and postnatal workshops led by leading specialists and pregnancy and postnatal exercise classes. When attending a class, new mums can book space in the crèche where the Mermaid Mother & Baby team can look after the baby (£10 per hour).
If Mermaid had existed two years ago, I know I would have wanted to join towards the end of my pregnancy to meet other local mums and the experts in the Mermaid team. I’m really impressed with the line-up of pregnancy and maternity experts involved with Mermaid, and I love the stylish facilities and central Chelsea location, which makes it such a brilliant place for feeding on the go.
Too good to miss!
If you haven’t visited Mermaid yet, I would recommend you to go see the facilities and meet the team during the open weekend on 12-13 July. Read more about the exciting program for pregnant ladies and families closer to the date!
