Unlocking Your Baby’s Potential with Baby Sensory
Welcoming a new baby into the world is an exciting, yet often overwhelming, experience. From understanding their development to creating a nurturing environment, parents want to do everything possible to support their little one’s growth. That’s where Baby Sensory comes in — an expertly designed programme tailored to babies from birth to 13 months.
Let’s explore why Baby Sensory is a must-have experience.
What is Baby Sensory?
Baby Sensory is a research-backed programme created by Dr Lin Day, one of the UK’s leading experts on infant development. It offers carefully designed sessions tailored to babies’ developmental stages — from birth to 6 months and 7 to 13 months. Each class is packed with sensory-rich activities to support learning, bonding, and exploration.
What Happens in a Baby Sensory Class?
Each Baby Sensory session is thoughtfully structured around a baby’s natural play-rest-play cycle, ensuring they stay engaged without becoming overstimulated. Here’s what you and your baby can expect:
Interactive Activities: Songs, rhymes, signing, movement, and sensory play promote essential skills — from motor development to early communication.
Bonding Time: Special moments designed to strengthen the parent-baby connection.
Expert Tips: Parents receive valuable guidance on supporting their baby’s development beyond the class.
Exploratory Play Area: A safe, stimulating space where babies can rest or engage in self-led play while parents socialize and build new friendships.
Inclusive Environment: Activities are adapted to ensure all babies, including those with physical or sensory impairments, can fully participate.
Unique, Expertly Crafted Lesson Plans
One thing that sets Baby Sensory apart is its unique curriculum. With 40 core lesson plans — plus an extra 28 seasonal and special event plans — no two classes are ever the same. Each session introduces new ways to boost sensory awareness and strengthen key developmental skills.
Every class includes:
Original music composed by Dr Lin Day, including the beloved songs ‘Say Hello to the Sun’ and ‘Wave Goodbye,’ promoting language development and routine.
Therapeutic activities designed to be both fun and soothing.
Research-backed techniques covering everything from baby positioning to sensory stimulation and communication.
Highly trained practitioners who continually upskill to ensure the best experience for parents and babies.
