About this class
Every Wednesday, Baby Sensory North Harrow runs three back-to-back sessions at Northwood Methodist Church: 09:45–10:30, 10:55–11:40, and 12:05–12:50. All three are open to babies from newborn through to 13 months, and the classes run all year round.
Each session follows a detailed lesson plan developed by Dr Lin Day, whose research into early child development spans more than four decades. In practice that means creative play, baby massage, tummy time, movement, and music sit alongside texture exploration, scent activities, and visual development — all calibrated for very young babies. The sensory layout is arranged to match the distance at which a baby actually sees objects clearly, and the decibel level of every instrument used has been measured to ensure it won't overwhelm small ears. Sessions open with the Baby Sensory signature song, 'Say Hello to the Sun', and close with sounds that echo the womb to settle babies before you leave.
Original and traditional songs and rhymes run through each session to support early speech and language, alongside sensory signing activities designed to help parents and babies communicate from birth.
The Northwood classes are run by Nandita, Toral, and Emily — the team behind Baby Sensory North Harrow Ltd, which Nandita has directed since November 2015. The franchise covers Northwood, Kenton, Rickmansworth, and Bushey. The programme is designed as a parenting programme as much as a baby class: you take home practical ideas to repeat during the week, and the regular Wednesday slot gives you a reason to get out, meet other parents, and feel supported. You're welcome to feed or cuddle your baby at any point during the session.
