    PMI has baby gym classes, toys, a doctor and helpful information on breastfeeding, food etc. It’s like a drop in centre for mums. (SJL)

    For playgroups etc I bring my eldest to the PMI. Each arrondissement has one or two of these government run centres. They offer free medical care and advice; play groups, weighings for newborns etc. (Solange Quinn)
