Program
Mum and little one
Welcome to your sanctuary—a peaceful haven for you and your little one to unwind, connect, and grow.
This retreat is designed to nurture both body and soul, with activities and workshops for mums and little ones alike. From calming wellness sessions and invigorating movement classes to inspiring workshops, every moment is crafted to support you on your motherhood journey.
Every retreat has its customized schedule adjusted to participants needs and interests. Hej Babes understands the needs of babies and small kids change constantly and cannot be predicted even days ahead. That is why they work with the following principles
- Each activity is at least 2 hours allowing everyone to come later or leave earlier
- Come and go whenever, wherever
- Use childcare services or don’t - you decide
- Creative childcare offers you time to join the mum movement session or simply take time just for yourself
- All sessions that do not specifically say “mum only” are for mums and little ones
