Nappuccino
2022-03-15 09:30 - 15:00 (Europe/London) | The Baby Room, 23 Paris Street, Exeter, EX1 2JB
Nappuccino: the melting pot of helpfulness for mums!
Nappuccino is a regular event at the Exeter Baby Room – a mixture of Cloth Nappies, washable wipes, cloth sanitary protection, Exeter Sling Library and Breastfeeding Peer Support with generous helpings of tea and cake! We are a designated warm space and serve soup and bread over the winter months. We take over the whole space and really kick back and enjoy ourselves.
It costs £3 per adult to come to our group: we have homemade cakes and biscuits, tea, coffee, decaffs, alternative milks and fruit teas as well as the soup.
There are free nappy trial kits to go home with, you can play with them for two weeks so you can see for yourself how easy cloth nappies really are. The kits come with everything you need to use cloth nappies successfully. and are free to borrow. You can also hire specialist newborn kits, night time and whole kits of the same nappy to see how the routine works.
There is free nappy support, trouble shooting and answers to loads of questions!
There is breastfeeding support from Peer Supporters and our sling lady Gill will be there with her extensive library.
Please see the website for travel ideas and other groups on in our space.

Waste not clothes swap….
Have you been wanting to update your wardrobe?
Then look no further here at More Positive Me we have just the thing for you, We have organised a much more easier cost effective way for you to update your wardrobe without the worry of breaking the bank in the process.
Swap shop is where you bring in the clothes you no longer wear and yes you’ve guessed it swap them for items of your choice on our clothing rails this could be for all genders and sizes and you will then receive a wrist band that you wear with the number of items you brought in (Maximum of 10 Items) which is the same amount that you can collect.
There will be a £5 Entry fee per Swapper/Shopper and the event will be held at Positive Lights Project on Sidwell street.
Clothes to be brought in @10 am and the swapping will start at 11am and go on until 13.00pm anyone wanting to just shop has the opportunity to come in from 13.00pm to 15.00pm
We are asking if the items can be in the best condition so like new if possible, And also no underwear or swimwear unless they have NEVER BEEN WORN with labels on.
If you have brought in Designer wear it would go into Kate’s Boutique section and you will receive 2 tokens per item of Designer Clothing/Accessories and it will also cost you 2 tokens to receive an item from the boutique if you have swapped.
There will be a section for children to have glitter tattoos or Face painting if they don’t fancy that then some colouring books/sheets and pencils will be available.
We are hoping to have a good supply of school uniform too!
