about us
Brood Family Studio is a creative space for families. These aren’t your usual kids and baby classes. We cook feasts from around the world. We make beautiful artworks from nature. We combine baby massage with mindfulness. We teach kids how to Dance Around The World and Join The Circus.
Programmes have been written from scratch alongside experts in the arts, Montessori, early years development and family wellbeing. Our studio is a calm space in the bottom of a beautiful, fun-filled private garden in South London. We want you to come and get creative, meet likeminded families, or find a moment to focus on yourself.

Amelia, mum of three, founded Brood after leaving her role at a creative advertising agency. She has spent her life working with children—teaching in a Montessori school, running a kids’ theatre camp for ten years, and sharing her love of drama, art, and dance. Brood is her way of bringing together all her creative passions, from cooking and ceramics to drawing and painting.
Our Studio Manager, Poppy, is our resident art expert. She trained at Central Saint Martins and Falmouth, and has worked in fashion as well as art and textiles education, right up to university level.
We’re lucky to have an incredible team of teachers and leaders, each with their own creative backgrounds and specialist training. Leisha is a professional performer with extensive experience in teaching and childcare. Georgia—Amelia’s sister—is a sound healer and baby & toddler yoga instructor.
And of course, Brood is shaped by Amelia’s own family. Her mum, MaryRose—a Montessori teacher and former nursery owner—has passed down her love of child-led learning. Her brother Oscar, an education entrepreneur and music teacher, has helped shape our Little Creatives classes. David, Amelia’s husband, is a trained chef who keeps everyone well-fed and full of ideas. And then there are her littlest helpers—ages 1, 4 and 6—who are the real inspiration behind everything we do (and the best product testers we could ask for!).
