Your first class

We are really looking forward to welcoming you along to your first sensory development class with us and wanted to share some information that some of our parents have told us it has been helpful to know.

Why is sensory development important?

When your baby is born the areas in their brain that process sensory information are not yet connected so we play in a sensory rich way which helps them integrate their developing senses through play. It is an amazing way to support development, we’ll share lots of information on baby development with you and give you an opportunity to join some of our online courses and trainings too.

When do I arrive?

We open the doors to our classes 5 minutes before our class time. Our classes involve lots of set up and toys so we are busy making things clean and beautiful for you before you come in and some of our turn arounds are pretty tight so please wait for us to be ready for you, we’ll open the door as soon as we can.

We’ll be there to welcome you in and help get you settled on a mat!

What should I bring? 

We’ll supply all of the resources that you need to join in at class. Our first half of our class happens on our soft play mats, some parents like to bring a blanket to go on top of our mats which you are really welcome to do. Bring your change bag and a feed for your little one, play can be hungry work! 

What happens at class?

Our classes are split into led play and exploratory play, both are really important for our little ones and everything we do is based around a theme. While each class has a balance of introducing new experiences and essential repetition for brain development you’ll experience really fun themes every week. 

Is my baby too young to come and play? 

No, not at all, we learn and make brain connections from birth, sensory play can support brain development and our learning. While our youngest ones may not manage the whole session, they are doing lots of learning and you’ll see an amazing increase in their concentration, attention, sensory development and motor skills over the weeks of the term. 

What happens if my baby needs fed or changed during class?

Our classes are really baby led so we actively encourage you to do what you and your little one need to be comfortable during class, feed, change, go for a walk. We honestly don’t mind. 

Can we come back after our trial?

We’d love to have you back! After your class we’ll send you a link through our booking system inviting you to book the rest of the term, just click on this link and your place is secured. If we don’t hear back from you after 48 hours, we’ll offer the place to our waiting list.

We are here to help, do let us know if we can answer any questions for you, we’d love to welcome you along to play!
