The Classes

Baby Sensory is a multi-award-winning programme, suitable from birth to 13 months, designed to aid and enhance your baby’s development through the use of play, exercise, baby massage and communication techniques. Come and join our baby classes, filled with light shows, music, signing, rainbows, bubbles, bells, puppets, a sparkling sea and much, much more! Baby Sensory is a programme of precious early learning for babies. Each week has a different fun theme which will focus upon various techniques to encourage your baby's sensory development within their crucial first year of life. 

With over 40 different lesson plans, you will never have the same class twice!

Each session lasts 1 hour and includes two teacher led activity sessions and exploratory play time in our bespoke play area.

Age Groups

Our classes are split into different age groups to enable us to differentiate and tailor the activities to baby's individual development stage. We also offer lots of tips and advice throughout the session as to how you can continue and expand on the activities at home. All of our learning development activities are based upon 35 years of expert research and experience. 

Booking

Classes are booked online as a term and work out at £8.50 per session (please be aware 'special' classes and ‘Pay As You Go’ are priced differently). If you join during the term, you only pay for the sessions left in that term. Classes are paid for at the time of booking. If you are unable to attend a session, you can swap to a different class running during the same week. Alternatively, you can offer the space to a friend (with a baby) in your place, or gift the session to someone.

We are currently unable to offer free trial classes, however, subject to availability, you can book a 'Pay As You Go' class to try it out!

FAQs

What age are classes for?
Our baby classes are suitable for all babies from birth to 13 months.

How long do the classes last?
Each class lasts 1 hour and includes 45 minutes of teacher-led activities, and 15 minutes of exploratory play in each session. This echoes baby’s natural play, rest, play rhythm and enables them to get the most out of every class.

Do I stay with my baby during the class?
Yes, absolutely! The classes are designed for caregivers and their babies to bond and interact throughout. Each baby is accompanied by 1 adult. It is possible to invite an extra adult, such as partner/relative, but please check with your class leader in advance so we can make sure there is space available at the venue.

What do I need to bring?
It is a good idea to bring your baby’s usual changing bag and a blanket. You won’t need anything else at the sessions as all of the props are provided for you.

How do I book?
Please book through the timetable on the home page. Choose the class you would like, click the button and follow the online instructions.

Do I have to commit to a term or can I book individual classes?
We recommend booking for a term as this is cheaper for you, and confirms your place in all the classes in that term. It also entitles you to priority booking for the next term’s classes too. However, subject to availability, you can book ‘Pay As You Go’ individual classes.

What is your cancellation policy?
Unfortunately, we are not able to offer refunds for missed classes, but you are able to swap to an alternative class during the same week. Alternatively, you can offer the space to a friend or relative, or allow your class leader to ‘gift’ the session to another parent on the waiting list.

What if my baby gets upset or needs feeding during the class?
It is completely normal for babies to respond in all their usual ways during class, including crying. Please know we have all been there and everyone is in the same position! Please feel free to tend to baby at any time during the session, or step away if you prefer. All our classes are designed to be relaxed and baby-led.

Can older siblings come along?
Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate older siblings.

Is there a discount for twins/triplets?
We are happy to offer one free place in the case of twins, with one full paying sibling. Any extra multiples are charged at half price.
