Kangatraining Point Cook

Point Cook mums, I am getting ready for you!
After a long journey I am officially building up my stamina to get through a kanga session to provide a safe place for mums and bubs to workout safely and interact with each other!
Tag new mummas and express interest below for potential term 4 classes.

Thankyou for sticking around ❤

Sorry I have been MIA but I saw this on a friend’s page and you all need to read it 💜

Child - "How old are you, Grandpa?"
Grandpa - "I'm 81, dear."
Child - "So does that mean you were alive during the Coronavirus?"
Grandpa - "Yes, I was."
Child - "Wow. That must have been horrible, Grandpa. We were learning about that at school this week.

They told us about how all the schools had closed. And mums and dads couldn't go to work so didn't have as much money to do nice things.
They said that you weren't allowed to go and visit your friends and family and couldn't go out anywhere.
They told us that the shops ran out of lots of things so you didn't have much bread, and flour, and toilet rolls.
They said that Easter holidays were cancelled. And they told us about all those thousands of people that got very sick and who died.
They explained how hard all the doctors and nurses and all essential workers worked, and that lots of them died, too.

That must have been so horrible, grandpa!"

Grandpa - "Yes, that is all correct, but I was just a kid back then. But to tell you the truth I remember it differently...

I remember playing in the garden for hours with mum and dad and having picnics outside and lots of bbqs.
I remember making things with my Dad and baking with my Mum.
I remember learning how to do hand stands and back flips. I remember having quality time with my family, even when they were being my teachers.
I remember Mum's favorite words becoming 'Hey, I've got an idea...'
Rather than 'Maybe later or tomorrow I'm a bit busy'.
I remember making our own bread and pastry, growing our own vegies and having fresh eggs from our new chooks. I remember having movie night three or four times a week instead of just one.

I remember we got to put our Christmas lights up in the middle of the year, just because we wanted to.

It was a horrible time for lots of people you are right.

But I remember it differently."

Remember how our children will remember these times.
Be in control of the memories they are creating right now, so that despite all the awful headlines and emotional stories they will come to read in their future years, they can only actually remember the happy times....

Hello to all my kanga mums past, present and future.
My name is Belinda and I am the kangatraining instructor for kanga Point Cook.
Sorry I have been M.I.A. Many of you know that about a year ago i had another joey to add to our community. The plan was to wait for my body to recover and start back, unfortunately my body was fighting its own battle with hodgkins lymphoma that was disgnosed just 4 months after my little man's birth. After six months of tests, operations and a very heavy load of chemotherapy I am now in remission and am very slowly building up my strength. I hope to be able to take some classes towards the end of year/ beginning of next year (with medical clearance)

Please feel free to tag some new/ expecting mammas on this post.

As I become more active on this page I will be uploading information on all things self care, baby and baby wearing.

Much love to all of you who have stuck around and biggest apologies if i haven't responded to your queries in the past few months.
❤❤❤

Little man has graduated to a back carry! The carrier reduces the load on all of my muscles and is an absolute saviour!!
