What does it mean to be a mother in 2026? I am proud to be raising my two boys whilst also working with the marvellous Trend Team. I am a mum in an era where we are told we can have it all, every mother I have come across is redefining what “all” really means. My Motherhood will shine a spotlight on a local mum, and share a little of her story along the way. First up we have the fabulous Claire Gregory. Mum to two beautiful boys, the 34-year-old recently launched Bosies. Her baby classes see her interact with more than 100 mums across City and Shire each week.
“My boys are age five and two and a half, it’s been a very different experience second time round. There were no baby classes with my lockdown baby, so it feels lovely to now offer mums that kind of community. I love the connection of motherhood, and the fact you can find someone going through the exact same thing at class. I only launched Bosies in November and there has been an overwhelming response. I really struggled postpartum because motherhood can be lonely. My hope is that the classes will enable mums to find their village, whilst bonding with their baby in a relaxed environment. I’ve always found that when times are tough and your little one gives you a wee smile, it puts everything in perspective. My classes are designed to be calming, and we always talk about our week through what I’ve termed ‘a win and a wobble.’ So many women I come across don’t think they are doing anything extraordinary, yet the way they take on life is incredible. I’m so proud to be creating a community, one class at a time. You can find out more on Instagram and Facebook via @bosiesbabyclasses
