Hi there, I’m Kerry — baby wrangler by day, sensory play enthusiast by… well, also by day!
I’ve been running Baby Sensory in South Manchester since 2010, but it all started with my own little whirlwind. My daughter was born 14 weeks early, and as a brand new (and slightly panicked) mum, I was on a mission to help her thrive. So, like many new parents, I sampled every baby group under the sun. Some were lovely, others… well, let’s just say we tried them.
Then we found Baby Sensory — and WOW. The richness, the variety, the science-backed magic of it all. I found myself learning something new about my daughter every single week. Watching her tiny, mighty progress filled me with so much joy. We were completely hooked. Overtime, she was responding to activities in ways that left me amazed (and slightly emotional).
The classes were unlike anything else — sparkling clean, beautifully designed, and full of engaging experiences that actually helped my daughter’s development.
So, I swapped airplane safety briefings for bubbles, bells, and baby giggles. Yup, I traded “brace for impact” for “brace for the parachute game,” and I’ve never looked back.
Running Baby Sensory has been an incredibly special journey for me. The smiles, the firsts, the parent laughter — it's the kind of joy you just can’t fake.
We’d love to welcome you to class — come and see what all the (sensory) fuss is about!

Hi, I’m Lesley – former Primary School teacher, professional glitter wrangler, and now officially part of the Baby Sensory family!
After nearly 20 years of teaching little minds their ABCs (and how not to glue themselves to the table), I’ve made the exciting leap into the world of Baby Sensory — where the learning is magical, the bubbles are endless, and nobody judges you for singing to a sock puppet.
I’m beyond excited to start this new chapter and can’t wait to meet you and your gorgeous babies. We have fantastic lessons planned ahead of each term full of colour, discovery, and probably a fair bit of parachute-flapping joy.
When I’m not leading sensory adventures, I’m a very lucky mum to three fabulous girls, and I love to travel.
See you soon for all the giggles, learning, and baby-powered brilliance!
