At Beauty. Mums & Babies outlet at Paragon
It’s the Weekend! Time to bond with baby, André Aaron again. This week has been a hectic week, lots of urgent projects and work keeps piling up. I look forward to weekends as it gives me time to take a breather and be in touch with my family.
I discovered this wonderful place which offers a great opportunity for mums and babies to workout, connect and to relish lovely moments together.
Beauty, Mums & Babies is a one-stop wellness centre for mums and babies which provides many interesting activities such as Mums & Babies Yoga, Baby Spa, Baby Massage, Baby Grooming and pre and post-natal massages for Mums.
I tried three of the centre’s services, including the Mums & Babies Yoga, Baby Spa and Baby Massage. I must say that I am extremely pleased with the service and the overall ambience. For the Mums & Babies Yoga, we attended the session at the Paragon outlet and for the Baby Spa and Massage, we went to the outlet at Seletar Mall.
Mums & Babies Yoga
Bonding time with baby through yoga
If you are looking for a place to lose your post pregnancy weight and bond with your baby, this is something you can consider. The Mums & Babies Yoga provides quality physical stimulation for you and your baby including, movement, touch, voice and deep relaxation. The session induces a relaxed, carefree and stress-free parent-infant interaction which develops as your baby grows.
Getting baby to relax during the session
The various and moves taught during the session include cat and cow, boat, camel, bridge, warrior and tree which help in the postural development of your baby from lying, sitting to walking. The movements also improve concentration, enhance body circulation, promote longer and more restful sleep and prevent indigestion and constipation. Regular yoga will also help your baby to be more nimble and agile.
Initially, Baby André was a little apprehensive and impatient and was crying as he was not used to being in a confined environment for too long. However, he was more relaxed after ten minutes and seemed to enjoy the yoga more. For first-timers, it is good not to force yourself or your baby to do all the moves as both of you may get injured. Always pace yourself and stop if you feel uncomfortable. If your baby is tired or fidgety, you can let him/ her lie on the mat and rest. The session is supposed to help you to de-stress, so do not overwork yourself.
Baby is delighted after the class
The instructor Joyce was very patient and was amazing with infants. She helped some of the mums to carry their babies when they got cranky and tired.

I will definitely be back for more Mums & Babies yoga sessions.
Baby Spa
Enjoying the spa
Babies love water as hydrotheraphy is the closest experience that replicates the environment in the womb. Baby André enjoys his daily baths as water has a calming effect on him. When we brought him to the baby spa, he was very excited. The therapists were very good with babies and managed to put him at ease. They helped him to change into his disposable swimming nappy and placed a float around him before putting him into the water. He thoroughly enjoyed the experience, however he got tired after about fifteen minutes.
The baby spa is suitable for babies above a month old. It helps to support brain and physical development, increase lung capacity, strengthen cardiovascular system, stimulate innate swimming reflexes and co-ordination and builds up the immune system.
The professional therapist massaging Baby André
The therapists were very friendly and professional. Gentle soothing strokes were used to create feel-good hormone oxytoxin, making the baby feel relaxed. The therapists also used toys to keep him entertained throughout the massage. Baby André enjoyed the massage and the attention he was getting from the therapists. He was smiling throughout the whole session.
It is good for babies to go for massages by a trained therapist as it improves the quality of sleep, improves circulation and respiratory systems, relieves colic, aids digestion and ease constipation. It also makes babies feel more secure and loved.
After the session, Baby André slept instantly, a testament to the efficacy of the massage. We will definitely be back!
