Booking Information - Frequently Asked Questions – Baby Sensory & Toddler Sense East Grinstead

 ** Please note this is a working document. We are closely following all government guidance and will update this document in line with the most recent guidance. Current information relating to Covid 19 may not be applicable **

How will classes operate?

Due to the current restrictions we have had to make some changes to our class structure. You will not be sitting in a circle close to each other; you will be given your own socially distanced space. Class numbers will be reduced in line with government guidance.

Baby Sensory – the class will be 45 minutes long. The class will still be in 3 parts, starting with sensory activities, followed by a short break from structured activities where you remain in your squares but are welcome to chat to other adults and babies can rest, feed or play with the equipment provided. We will then finish with another section of sensory activities. Classes will have a different theme every week. 

Toddler Sense – the class will be 45 minutes long. We will still start with a free play element followed by structured sensory fun activities with a different themed adventure every week!

How will you keep the equipment clean?

You will be given your own set of equipment to use for the duration of the class. This will include everything you need for all the activities. The equipment will have been sanitised before the session and only you will use it during the session. At the end of the session we will sanitise all equipment and leave it to air dry before it is used again.

Will we have to wear a face covering?

As per government guidance regarding indoor spaces all adults will be asked to wear face coverings (unless you are exempt) when entering the building and whilst settling into your space.

Once everyone is settled into their space, we are hoping you will be able to remove masks for the activities if you would like to. Of course, if you are more comfortable keeping your mask or visor on during the session you are very welcome to.

Babies and children WILL NOT be asked to wear face coverings.

Will we have to maintain social distancing?

Following all government guidelines, we do need to ask you to maintain social distancing during the sessions. 

You will be asked to maintain social distancing throughout the session.  We know with toddlers and mobile babies this may be difficult and we will provide you with lots of lovely equipment to keep your little one occupied.  If you need to stand up with your little one or let them crawl/walk around your space it is not a problem.

If they do move away from you we ask that you bring them back to you as quickly as possible.

What happens when I arrive and what can I bring with me?

Due to the cleaning procedures we ask that you do not arrive earlier than 10 minutes before the start of your class. On arrival you will be shown where you can leave your shoes/bags. Please only bring essential items with you to the class. Please do not bring buggies/car seats unless absolutely necessary.

If a lot of people arrive at the same time please form a queue outside the door maintaining social distancing so that you can all enter safely one at a time.  Hand sanitiser will be available for you to use on arrival, this is for adult use only. We also encourage you to bring your own hand sanitiser and to regularly sanitise your hands.  At the end of your class we ask that you collect your things and leave in order (closest to the exit will go first etc to maintain social distancing) 

Can we use the toilet?

If you need to change a nappy or use the toilet of course you can go!  Please ensure you wear your face covering and make your way from your space to the nearest toilet following the most direct route. Please bring your own changing mats and take all nappies/ wipes etc home with you. 

In the toilet we will leaving cleaning materials and we ask that you wipe down any touch points after use and discard the wipe in the bins provided.

Can I bring siblings/ extra people with me?

Unfortunately, we are currently only able to accommodate one adult per child. If you have twins/siblings and want to bring another adult to help you will need to book 2 full price places (if one adult is bringing both siblings the second sibling is half price). Please contact us of for any sibling bookings.

Baby Sensory – we are unable to have older siblings attending class.

Toddler Sense – If you have a baby under 12 months, they are welcome to join you and your toddler free of charge however please do let us know at the time of booking as we will need to factor this into the numbers allowed in the room.  We will only be able to accommodate a small number of babies in class for free as it reduces our allowed paying customers and “family” spaces will be limited. 

What happens if we or you are affected by a local or national lockdown? 

If we are unable to run the venue-based classes for circumstances out of our control your classes will be held online via zoom or rescheduled.  We are unable to offer a refund or hold classes over to when venues return as the online session will be in place of the venue-based class.

What if I have any symptoms of Covid 19 or someone I live with is showing symptoms?

Please DO NOT come to classes if you or someone you live with is showing symptoms or has tested positive for Covid 19. Please follow all government guidance for self-isolating.

What happens if we or you are required to self isolate under the Goverenment Track and Trace system?

If we are unable to run the venue-based classes for circumstances out of our control your classes will be held online via zoom or rescheduled.  We are unable to offer a refund or hold classes over to when venues return as the online session will be in place of the venue-based class.

What happens if I cannot attend my usual class?  Can I swap classes?

We will try and accommodate you in a different class subject to availability, but are unable to guarantee space and availability. 

We cannot offer a refund or credit for a lesson missed for any reason.   Where possible we will allow you to gift your space to a friend provided we are notified in advance in writing.  In line with Track and Trace requirements you will need to provide us with their Full Name, Mobile number and Home address in advance in writing. 

Upon request it may be possible to provide you with a pre-recorded mini-session to enjoy at home.   

What else do I need to know?

By attending the class, you give us permission to pass your details to NHS track and trace if necessary. Please make sure your mobile number is up to date on our system.

Once you have booked if any of this information changes, we will update you accordingly.
