25.01.2022 Self care and strong relationships' is an positive session which challenges us all to find the time for ourselves - to fill our well being tank so we can enjoy parenthood, maintain good relationships and still meet babies needs. This session will provide tips on how to find time for ourselves and manage the important relationships in our lives.

24.01.2022 Start the year right. Reach out to a new mum and send words of strength and support at a time which can be challenging.

24.01.2022 Wow! This is so powerful right now. Are you raising boys with honour codes?

23.01.2022 Just a couple more days before Maribyrnong City Council's Sustainable Living team run this FREE session on cloth nappies. Learn everything you ever wanted to know before you take the plunge. You might be surprised at how easy the switch to a more eco friendly alternative is.

23.01.2022 Now that all the crazy festivities are over its time to look forward and get back on track looking after yourself. For me this means setting some intentions for the year. Not so much resolutions, I tend to find them too hard to keep but intentions I can manage. Last year I wanted to love my body more and despite covid I did up my exercise and drink less wine. This year I want to be on my phone less and to start enjoying some old hobbies which are a bit more hands on. I'm goin...g to start the year with a bit of a digital detox which means I'll be posting less. I'm still available if you want to message or email me but you may find that posts slow down. I suggest you give a digital detox a go these holidays too. Tune into your emotions and energy. Usually both improve if you can put your phone down for a while. See you on the other side. Happy New Year and keep looking after you See more

22.01.2022 Calling all families in the City of Maribyrnong with kids Do you know you can WIN A VISIT FROM SANTA to your doorstep for free this Christmas? It's super easy to enter. Just send us an image of how Christmas preparations look at your house. Yep, it can be just about anything, cooking, decorations, dress ups, presents or just family. There will be a winner in each of our nine suburbs and the beauty is all your neighbours can also join in the fun.

22.01.2022 Haven't things gotten hectic! After months of laying low everyone is in over drive trying to squish in catch ups lost before Xmas strikes.Personally my work has also hit it's peak. It's all good stuff but self care needs to remain. It's time like these when exercise, early nights and eating well all take a turn for the worst. I felt like I couldn't fit my work outs in for the past couple of weeks but this is week I'm back on track and boy do I feel better. ... For me exercising is an essential way of staying on top of stress and my emotional state. It's taking care of me and important. Don't let your self care go at times like this. Don't let yourself down and put yourself last. Be your own mate and prioritise the things that matter to you. #selfcare #fitmum #exercisematters #mentalhealthmatters

21.01.2022 I'm having a choreo kind of weekend working on my playlists for Term 4 which starts next week. Hit me with you fave boogie song and let me see if I can come up with a routine.

21.01.2022 Oh boy. Sorry about the short notice. But if you're ready to kanga, like right now, jump on and get bub off to sleep with Kangatraining founder Nicole

21.01.2022 For a bit of early Xmas fun the Friday Kanga ladies did the whole 12 days in class complete with moves and babies on board. Now it's your turn to have a go with your families. Just sing your favourite suburb or two and make up your own moves. It's really easy to record yourself and you'll be part of our Christmas video clip

19.01.2022 I've been a bit quiet lately. I want to first up apologise for that and to all the enquiries I really haven't addressed with my usual enthusiasm. Truth is I've been letting go and it's been a process. Thanks to all those around me who have given me the space to say it out loud and see how it feels. It feels right and the time is right. It's time to let go of my Kanga baby. Just like my child I've nurtured this business and watched it grow. As a first time business owner I ha...Continue reading

19.01.2022 How great are these for the current times!

19.01.2022 Today's trial class got the thumbs up from lots of mums. We had lots of sleeping little bubbas and also quite a few bigger bubbas from previous terms bopping while their mummas exercised some important self care. Got to love seeing so many happy faces.

19.01.2022 Woo-hoo tomorrow we get to kanga boogie! Class starts at 4pm. Guaranteed to elevate your mood. Come shake your booty with us.

18.01.2022 What a powerful start to my Friday Who are the strong women joining me this morning?

18.01.2022 This is so cute! I love an inventive and easy recycling trick to keep bubs happy. Do you have one of your own you can share?

17.01.2022 Loving this self care calendar! Us parents need to ensure we're looking after ourselves through the craziness.

17.01.2022 One of the best things about kanga is how easily our bubbas nod off as we boogie. It's really lovely to switch off and get some exercise without having to worry about what bub will do cos their needs will be met, they'll be out of the way and content. It's the win win work out.

17.01.2022 When your hard work pays off It's not always easy juggling work and a business but I love both so much I soldier on often leaving other things suffer. For the past week its been family dinners which have been in front of the TV for days. We'll get back on track but in the meantime check out this fun activation I've been working on. I was thrilled when the amazing Rebecca Barnard said she'd write the City of Maribyrnong its very own Christmas carol and equally as thrilled wh...en the very talented Princess on Skates agreed to perform the dance moves. Yep, the choreo is by me. I loved that my kanga skills came in handy in this one. So, now we need you to get involved. Learn the song, (once you do you'll never sing the 12 days of Christmas the same again) and film yourself getting your Xmas boogie on. Send it in to be part of the bigger video project which will go live in December. I can't wait to see some kangamummas as part of the chorus.

17.01.2022 Before becoming a mum and working with new mums I probably leaned heaps more on the toxic positivity side than I do nowadays. Now I'm far more tuned in to kindness, listening and generally the feelings of others. We still have friends who do it though don't we? People who mean well and wanna cheer you up by seemingly looking on the bright side. If they only knew, you know about the bright side too, but just need the darkness to be acknowledged also. Things can be tough as a mum, whatever time of year, yep even if you're surrounded by healthy loving family members and a beautiful baby. Your feelings are always valid. If you have someone who needs to see some better expressions to show understanding maybe show them this. Here's to a year of tuning into your needs with compassion.

17.01.2022 Just a little while left to enter this competition. There are some great prizes by two great brands up for grabs. Got to be in it to win it!

16.01.2022 Something else I've been working on in my desk job. Great free fun for little ones and Leo even got into it too.

16.01.2022 For me it's the laundry that only makes it to the floor beside the basket what family pet peeves tip you over the edge? The mental load is real

16.01.2022 Hey mums! I'm super excited for tomorrow's trial class. I've been busy organising new mums and carriers. I've sent a bunch of emails and seen heaps of health forms. There's still a bunch of mums I haven't heard from. If this is you please check your junk mail. If you're still not sure what to do please comment here so we can connect. I'll be sending all links tonight but going to bed early. We start at 9am tomorrow so there's still a little time to get yourself sorted. Hop to it

16.01.2022 In a nutshell I love what I do. I believe in the benefits of exercise and connection with other mums. I adore babywearing and what that gives to mums and bubs. I enjoy the workout too, even so many years on. You could say I'm passionate about my work. #kangatrainer #mumsfitness #postnatalcare #mumsandbubs #innerwestmums

15.01.2022 Bringing miscarriage to the fore! It really helps when women of such significance speak so openly about this very common occurrence which is sometimes not discussed, trivialised and shrouded in shame or guilt. I applaud this kind of honesty and of course send strength to Meghan and all the other women currently going through this deeply emotional loss.

15.01.2022 Woo-hoo so many mums about to do something great for themselves this morning by taking a kangatraining class. If you haven't booked in then don't stress. There will be more opportunities. I hope you do something nice for yourself anyway. #selfcaresaves2020

15.01.2022 It's the little things that make you feel connected. And sometimes when you see another parent babywearing in public you do just wanna give them a high five like you're part of the same tribe. Come along to kanga and you'll see a whole lot of them Art by Maku Fenaroli

14.01.2022 No matter what today throws at you I know I'm going to be able to cheer some 20 ladies up with a boogie later on. Exercise increases endorphins which creates smiles and a good mood. If you want a piece of that get in touch. You can start your kanga journey at any point throughout the term. First class starts today!!!

13.01.2022 What have you done for self care this weekend?

13.01.2022 Great advice here Your village can be found in the most unlikely places and yes sometimes it takes a bit of effort. If exercise and babywearing interest you then Kangatraining could be your ticket. You'll be surprised that even online you can be making life long friends.

13.01.2022 You've got to love an exercise class you can't make excuses to miss. This morning we had a mum join us from her holiday house weekend away and all term we've had mums join who don't have a kanga class in their immediate hood.The beauty of zoom! It's more than location though. There's no need to worry about what's going to happen with bub at kanga cos you know they're going to be content cuddled in close and having all their needs met while you meet your own self care quota. I...t's a win win class! #kangaathome #mumsandbubsfitness #kangatraining #postnatalfitness #babywearing #dancewithyourbaby

08.01.2022 Here's a cute activity for this month. Can you do one a day? Today I took a nap

08.01.2022 Well that's the end of another week of kanga and all I can say is wow! These women are totally the best ladies around! Strong, resilient, supportive and on top of their self care. They've made my week shine and filled my cup. Do you have a tribe of ladies you connect with who do that for you?

08.01.2022 Good morning mummas! What a gorgeous day it's going to be Made all the better cos we Kanga at 10am. Who's up for a dance

07.01.2022 So relatable. I'm that mum

04.01.2022 These products are divine! Enter the competition for your chance to win. And if you luck out and are still keen on a piece let me know, as yep, I'm a Woolbabe rep too, and can offer a discount.

03.01.2022 New term starts this week. First class is Tuesday at 4pm. It's a great time for that little afternoon kip some bubbas need to get them through the evening and get mumma through the witching hours. Classes can be booked casually or discounts apply for multi class pass bookings. Other classes this week will take place Thursday at 10am and Friday at 9am. There's 3 chances to kanga online each week this term. Have you booked your place?... #kangatrainer #kangatraining #kangaathome #postnatalfitness

03.01.2022 ALL OF THIS! #getinthepicture

03.01.2022 It's International Babywearing Week! There are so many great reasons to babywear. For me it's the number one parenting tool parents need to learn more about. Babies feel safe and secure in early life helping them to cry less through the 4th trimester. Parents bond with bubs cuddled close responding to their needs as they arise. Parents can multitask safely getting about their day and attending to other children. Worn optimally a mumma can even get a work out... There are so many more reasons to love babywearing. What's your favourite?

02.01.2022 I hit another milestone today. 10 years of marriage Pretty good for someone who never thought she'd get married. We had big plans on being in Portugal this week. Covid put a halt to that months ago. Not having plans was getting me down a bit last week but we decided we could work through the restrictions. We purchased new board games as gifts and have been having a great time in our onsies playing them with Mr.5. Let's face it romance is different with kids, no matter what c...ountry you're in We still have a fancy dinner to enjoy alone and the flowers were a nice surprise. Honestly the best thing has been that we're so happy this far down the track. Covid has actually been good for our relationship, having my man around to be more hands on around the house and with our son has been great. I'm super grateful for the pause and growth we've experienced over the past months. I'm hoping there are other mums who feel the same. Parenthood has also been a huge learning curve and at 5yo I think we've hit a good stride. So if you're feeling distant from your partner due to your new role as mum have hope, be patient, the spark comes back. No it doesn't look like it once did, especially in iso but true love adapts See more

01.01.2022 I'm still on a high from our Kanga trial class on Friday! I just love seeing so many mums exercising self care while their babies needs are met. We had lots of sleeping bubs and happy mums. We're going to have a ripper term and even though we're online again we're ticking all the right boxes. We're connecting with local mums, looking after our physical and mental health needs, strengthening our pelvic floors and bonding with our bubs. It's not too late to get on board the Kanga train for term 4. Classes start next week and you can start at any time. If you want to be part of the fun comment below and I'll hook you up.
