About this class
St Saviours Church Hall sits on Chadwick Road, off Kings Road in Westcliff-On-Sea, and hosts Baby Sensory Southend sessions run by Louise Wiseman. Louise has been leading classes for close to ten years and came to the programme as a parent herself — she has three children — a background shared by many Baby Sensory practitioners. The hall has wheelchair access and the sessions are suitable for babies with additional needs.
Each hour-long session follows a detailed lesson plan covering what your baby touches, sees, hears, smells, and feels. Activities move through creative play, tummy time, massage, movement, visual stimulation, textures, scent, and music — original songs alongside familiar rhymes. The room is set up to match the distance at which young babies actually see clearly, and every instrument used has been checked against safe decibel levels. Sessions open with the programme's signature song and close by gently mimicking womb sounds to help babies settle.
The programme was designed as much for parents as for babies. You'll leave with practical ideas you can repeat at home, and the classes offer a regular reason to get out and connect with other parents. Feeding or cuddling your baby mid-session is entirely welcome; no one expects a baby to sit still. Louise's franchise covers Rochford, Westcliff, Leigh, and Shoeburyness, and booking is per term or block rather than drop-in.
