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.

Community Clothes Swap
2025-06-28 14:00 - 16:00 | Sideshore Community Hub, Sideshore Queens Drive Exmouth EX8 2GD, Exmouth, Devon, EX8 2GD, United Kingdom
Back by popular demand, Exmouth Town Council is hosting another Community Clothes Swap in the Community Hub at Sideshore.
We’re inviting folk to bring along any pre-loved, clean and good-condition clothes, shoes or jewellery – and swap them for some ‘new’ ones. They can drop off items between mid-day and 1pm. And then the doors will open for swapping at 2pm. (Swappers can of course just join us between 2pm and 4pm with items to swap as well!)
