Babies and Toddlers
There are lots of groups in Beeston for babies and toddlers to attend with a parent. Here they can play with other children and you can meet other parents. Most of these groups are free or have a small charge to cover food and drinks provided. Almost all these groups are run by community centres and Churches.
