Can I bring my older child?
Unfortunately, due to health and safety and our insurance. Siblings aged 14 months to 5 years are unable to attend Baby Sensory sessions.
What if my baby sleeps?
When your baby sleeps, they still take on around 40% of their surroundings. They can still hear the music, feel the textures and enjoy the smells around them. So even if you baby is asleep they are still benefiting from our Baby Sensory sessions.
I have twins, can I still attend?
Twins are more than welcome to attend our Baby Sensory sessions. We offer a 50% discount on the second child. You are also welcome to bring an additional adult to help you, if you need it. However is it not possible for our class leaders to be the extra adult during the session. Due to limited numbers, if you are bringing another adult with your children they will need to pay for a full extra space. If you are bringing the children with one adult there is a 50% discount for the second child.
