Southgate, Winchmore Hill, Palmers Green, Summer 2026

Welcome to The Fourth Trimester Club.

Six weeks of meet ups with a small group of local mums in Southgate, Winchmore Hill, and Palmers Green. Time to find your people, feel a bit more like yourself, and leave with the friendships that actually last.

Group chat, yours to keep
The bit nobody warns you about

After the birth, before the village.

Your partner goes back to work. You are up at 3am googling things that feel too small to ask anyone out loud. You are wondering if you are doing it "right". Sound familiar?

No one really tells you how hard it can be to find your people after having a baby. That is what we are here for. A space where you see the same friendly faces each week, where chats pick up where they left off, and where friendships actually have time to grow.

What it is

Same faces, same space, every week.

A small, thoughtfully put together group of local mums. No drop-ins, no introducing yourself for the hundredth time. Just a chance to get to know the women who are in the same place as you, at the same time as you.

01

A small local cohort

Up to 12 mums from near you, all starting at the same time. Small enough that everyone actually knows your name by week two.

02

A few baby classes

Short tasters over the six weeks. A gentle way to see what you and your baby actually enjoy, without committing to a block booking before you know if it suits you.

03

A group chat that outlasts us

Your group chat starts on day one and is yours to keep. The six weeks come to an end. The friendships do not.

What you'll do

A mix of what mums actually want.

Six weeks of meet ups, put together with real care. Gentle, unhurried, and designed for mums and babies alike.

Social

Coffees, walks, brunches

Unstructured time is where the real friendships happen. We book the venue, you bring yourself, no awkward icebreakers.

Baby classes

Tasters of the good ones

Think baby massage, sensory, and more. Short tasters so you can see what you and your baby actually enjoy, without signing up to a block booking before you know if it suits you.

Same group

Something you build together

Not a one-off class, not a single mixer. The same faces week after week, so familiarity has time to build. You get to know each other's babies, each other's weeks, and yourselves somewhere in the middle of it all.

Our story

Hi, I'm Leanne.

I feel really lucky to say this, but I found my people early on. We met before we had our babies, and once we all had our little ones, the mums group just clicked.

Every Wednesday, like clockwork, we'd meet. Same faces, same place. We'd chat, share, offload, catch up on whatever chaos the week had brought. We still do now.

The more we talked about it, the more we realised this isn't the norm. Most mums don't get that kind of consistency. Or that kind of space.

Now we're planning first birthdays and figuring out what life looks like after mat leave, and I keep thinking how much those Wednesdays shaped everything.

Week one? I was nervous. By week three, I felt more open. And somewhere along the way, those women became my people.

So I'm building The Fourth Trimester Club, so more mums get to have that too.

What you get

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Six weeks, six meet ups, and a group chat that lasts a lot longer.

Three social meet ups

Coffees, walks, brunches. The unstructured time where the real friendships tend to form.

Three baby classes

Baby massage, sensory, and more. Short tasters, so you can see what you and your baby actually enjoy before committing to a block booking.

Designed for mums and babies alike

Every meet up is built to work for both of you. A room where your baby can be a baby, and you can be a person too.

A group chat from day one

Live before week one. Private, permanent, and yours to keep long after the meet ups end.

04

Show up

Week one, summer 2026. We have done the organising. You just bring yourself and your baby.

What we believe

A few things we hold to.

We are still new, so here is the honest version of how we think.

Belonging is the product.

Everything else, the venues, the meet ups, the logistics, is a vehicle for it. If you do not leave with friends, we have failed.

No advice from us, ever.

You already have opinions coming at you from every angle. We will not add ours. We are here to host, not to teach.

Same group, week after week.

This is not a class you take before the baby comes, and it is not a one-off morning you pay for and forget. It is the same small group, meeting again and again, so real familiarity has time to build.

The friendships outlast us.

Your group chat is permanent. Six weeks of meet ups, and a group of mums that keeps going long after we have stopped organising.

Register your interest

FAQ

Questions you might have.

Summer 2026, across Southgate, Winchmore Hill, and Palmers Green. Exact dates and venues depend on how the cohort fills, so if you have registered your interest you will hear from us as soon as things are locked in.
That is the whole point. Nobody knows anyone on day one. We keep groups small (8 to 12) and local so you have things in common from the start. The six-week structure means you see the same faces every week. That is how real friendships form.
It does not really matter. The connection is between the mums, not the babies. Whether your baby is two weeks or ten months, you are welcome. We will try to cluster people roughly so you are not the only one with a pre-crawler in a room of toddlers.
Timing and purpose. Pre-birth classes happen before you have actually had the baby, and one-off classes give you a single morning with people you will probably never see again. This is for after the baby comes, when you actually need it most, and it is the same small group of mums week after week. Not a class, not a mixer. A space where real friendships have the time to form.
Partners are welcome at some of the meet ups. The core schedule is built for mums available during weekday daytimes, but your partner is always welcome in the group chat too.
The meet ups come to an end, the friendships do not. Your group chat is permanent and yours. Most groups carry on organising their own coffees, walks, and playdates long after we have stopped.
£220 per person for the whole six weeks. That covers all the venues, the baby classes, and the bookings. Nothing else to pay on the day.
