Early Years activities

The South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture Early Years programme.

Are you pregnant or have you recently had a baby and are looking for some activities to keep yourself and your baby healthy?

Exercising ante and post-natally has many benefits for both you and your baby including:

  • Strengthening heart and lungs
  • Controlling and maintaining healthy weight
  • Improving stamina, circulation and posture
  • Reducing symptoms of pregnancy
  • Improved sleep pattern
  • Reduced anxiety and improved relaxation
  • Aid faster post natal recovery

Check the ACE Activities Timetable or the Tiny ACE brochure for days and times of classes. There are lots of activities tailored for you and your baby's needs from ante and post natal exercise to arts and culture classes.

Classes include:

  • Aqua natal: an aqua aerobics class specifically for ladies who are 17 weeks pregnant and onwards
