ABOUT US!

Babble Talks is the event for all new parents who are looking for something to stimulate their minds. We invite expert guest speakers to present a 30-minute talk, participate in a bit of interactive fun and answer audience questions. It's an opportunity for you to flex those intellectual muscles for an hour and switch your focus - these talks are NOT about parenting!
How It All Started...
Babble Talks was founded in 2018, when Julian - youngest member of the Babble team - was four months old. Like many professional new mums, Ruth had jumped straight from a busy and demanding job into maternity leave and the world of babies, Although there were plenty of amazing activities on offer - from yoga to baby massage to classical music, cinema screenings and comedy - something was missing. What could she do to occupy the part of her mind that isn't required for remembering where your head, shoulders, knees and toes are? How could she get around the fact that once baby arrives, attending evening events is so much harder?

The answer: a daytime event where expert speakers present a topic to a room full of parents and babies in an accessible and engaging way! An opportunity to switch your focus, avoid the feeling of detachment from the rest of the world that comes with a new baby, and meet like-minded people, connecting over something other than baby milestones.
