What Mum's Are Saying

Great product, couldn't be happier

We were lucky enough to receive this beautiful gift from within the family, which was the lightweight bamboo blanket from Lotus Maternity! Nelly always settles with this lovely blanket on her so would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to purchase for their own child or as a gift! The personalisation is such a lovely touch!

Lovely product & brand, highly recommend

I bought a blanket for a friend over a year ago. Caleb has just had his first birthday and still sleeps with it. His mum tells me it is so soft and it really settles him at bedtime.

Invaluable advice and support

I've completed The Postnatal Plan not once but twice and it was just as helpful and lovely the second time around. There's 3 and half years between my boys and it's surprising how much you forget! This service is absolutely priceless for new parents. The classes are worth every penny and I can safely say I would even attend again if a third baby ever came along, that is how much I rate lotus maternity.

Hands down the BEST group I have been to

Wow… The Postnatal Plan! Liv is so lovely and the girls in the group were all so welcoming. It’s so informative and I can’t believe how much you learn whilst still enjoying yourself, chatting away to Liv and the other mummies! I highly recommend it and I will definitely be returning when I have my second baby! The group and Liv are just amazing.
