A GROUP for parents and carers with new babies has been set up in north Durham.
The Bouncin' Babes group meets at Moorside Children's Centre, on Chester Road, Moorside, Consett, every Friday afternoon.
Parents and carers with babies under nine months old are invited to go along, meet other families, make new friends and share advice.
Sure Start worker Jill Alderson, who runs the group said: "It's a really nice, friendly group and a chance to meet other parents and share advice and support.
"It's really relaxed, you can talk about anything and everyone is made to feel welcome.
"It's fascinating to watch the babies meet each other for the first time and there are lots of toys for the children to explore and it's also a chance for them to socialise too."
Families in the Consett area can pop along to the Bouncin' Babes group on Friday's between 1pm and 3pm or can contact Ms Alderson on 01207-232048 for more information.
