Dai Alford has been a Tatty Bumpkin Franchisee since completing her four-day training in March 2010......
"A couple of months ago, I also undertook two further days of training to become a qualified Baby bumpkin teacher. These classes are just so popular that I have hardly needed to advertise it. It’s very focused on bonding and nurturing and again it makes me feel lovely!

I always remember how I felt coming out of my last session of the first week of my Tatty classes. I felt giddy with excitement; this is a wonderful way to feel at work I thought and the best part is that I still feel like that!"

Fun activity classes

Based on yoga and developed by music educationalists, paediatric physiotherapists and experienced yoga teachers, Tatty Bumpkin’s yoga-inspired activity classes won “Best Activity for children under 5" in the Organix What’s On for Little Ones Awards in 2008. Running from Exeter to the Isle of Skye, classes are loved for their innovative approach to childhood development and parents are often surprised to rediscover their inner child!

Designed to be flexible and make the transition a bit easier for mums returning to work, Tatty Bumpkin was awarded an UnLtd Social Enterprise for its socially responsible business model and continues its work to give women the opportunity to have a rewarding, lucrative and family friendly career.
 
Clothing with a difference…

Based on the principle that movement is the basis for learning, Tatty Bumpkin’s range of carbon neutral, organic and bamboo clothing have been designed as “clothes to feel good in, clothes to feel good about.”

Ethically sourced and fairly traded, all Tatty Bumpkin accessories are made by a Fair Trade Cooperative in Sri Lanka, offering a bright and cheerful way of helping marginalized communities and living sustainably.
