Bloom Baby Classes

There is never a dull moment in a Bloom session! Our sessions are packed full of a range of back to back activities to encourage baby's physical, emotional, cognitive and social development so your little one is constantly learning throughout. We explain the research and science behind each activity we do so that you understand exactly why we do it and what the benefits are for you and baby.

Caterpillar Club (0 to 6 months)
A gentle baby development class with a focus on encouraging bonding with your little one. Our Caterpillar Class awakens baby's first senses and stimulates in a fun, yet soothing way, using bubbles, parachutes, lights, puppets, songs, pompoms, tummy time and baby yoga development moves, ending the class with a relaxing massage for baby to help them drift into a long nap.

Busy Bees (6 months to 15 months)
A fun, lively musical baby development class encouraging fine and gross motor skills, body awareness, early language acquisition and rhythm and tempo. Building on from the gentle activities of Caterpillar Club, this session uses instruments, dancing, clicking sticks, Makaton and more to bring on your baby's all round development.

With a different theme each week of the year, no week is the same ! All set to our unique Bloom musical soundtrack, designed to encourage early language and stimulate baby's musical and aural awareness, lots and lots of photo opportunities to cherish and make wonderful memories throughout your little one's first year.
