On Sème Tendrement, a warm cocoon for young and old in Clamart

On Sème Tendrement is a brand-new stroller café that has just opened in the south of Paris. According to founder Céline, it's a "cocoon-like place, just like home", where you can attend a parenting workshop with your children, take a sports class or simply have a snack, relax and chat.

When you walk through the door of this new family concept, you're sure to be greeted by the smiles of Céline and Carine, the two managers of the place. The former left a career as a neonatal nurse, the latter as a childcare assistant, both at the Béclère hospital in Clamart, to found On Sème Tendrement, a space where parenthood is discussed , but above all, where future and young parents can be truly supported.

Both mothers, they know only too well that parents are on their own once a baby is born. So they put all their knowledge and experience from their hospital careers to work for those in need. "When people come to the café, we sit down with them and chat," says Céline. It's a place where people can meet and exchange ideas, where they can bond when moms are on maternity leave, and where they can share and learn from each other's parenting experiences. What's more, Céline and Carine now offer the Café des parents, to talk about parenthood, every Thursday at 3pm!

At the entrance, you'll find a boutique with great gift ideas for future or new parents: Céline and Carine offer a whole selection ofeco-responsible objects made in France, which more and more families are looking for. On the food front, Céline admits that "dookies", the soft, gourmet cookies made in Clamart by independent pastry chef Doriane, are a huge hit. In mini or maxi format, they're a hit as soon as the four o'clock bell rings or the kids come home from school, especially if accompanied by a delicious hot chocolate, topped with a dollop of whipped cream or any other hot beverage.

Comfort is what people come here for, whether it's a parent-child workshop in baby sophrology, baby massage or babywearing, or baby reflexology...given by Carine or Céline, who have trained in the various practices.On Sème Tendrement also offers a wide range of sports classes for young and old, in the morning, at lunchtime and in the evening. For adults, the program includes pre- and post-natal yoga, pre- and post-natal sophrology, fitness and boxing sessions... Accessible to all, the classes are also designed to bring people together, enabling everyone to gradually get back into the swing of things, with gentle or more cardio-based disciplines. For the little ones, there's African dance in particular.

Last but not least, On Sème Tendrement offers the opportunity to consult parenting professionals in dedicated rooms: naturopaths, sophrologists, lactation consultants and psychomotricists are on hand every week, right inside the space. To sum up: a friendly stroller café where you can exercise, relax or have a coffee with other parents: we can't recommend enough that you try On Sème Tendrement with (or without) your little ones.
