About this class
Baby Sensory at St. Mary Oatlands runs every Friday in the church hall on Oatlands Avenue, Weybridge. Becky Jackson, the Weybridge Coordinator, leads four sessions across the day: 10:00 AM for ages from birth to 13 months, 11:30 AM for 5–13 months, 1:00 PM for newborns up to 7 months, and 2:30 PM open to the full birth-to-13-months range.
Each session is structured around a baby's natural play-rest-play cycle, moving between active sensory activities and quieter intervals so babies aren't pushed past their limits. A typical class weaves together creative play, tummy time, movement, textures, and scents alongside original songs and rhymes — including pieces composed by programme founder Dr Lin Day — paired with simple signing activities that lay early groundwork for speech and language. The sensory area is arranged at the distance babies can actually focus on clearly, and every instrument used is decibel-checked to keep sound levels appropriate for small ears. Sessions close by mimicking the sounds of the womb to bring babies gently back to calm.
Each class includes dedicated Bonding Time, Expert Tips, and an Exploratory Play Area. Activities are adapted so that babies with physical or sensory impairments can fully participate. Parents are welcome to feed or cuddle their baby at any point during the session.
The Weybridge classes cover families from Weybridge, Staines/Egham Hythe, and Ottershaw. Classes are popular and places fill quickly within a term; you can join mid-term if spaces remain, but early enquiry is advisable. Contact Becky on 07976 736407 or weybridge@babysensory.co.uk.

Common questions
What age is this class for?
The programme covers babies from birth to 13 months, with two developmental stages: birth to 6 months, and 7 to 13 months. The Friday timetable at St. Mary Oatlands reflects that split, with dedicated slots for younger and older babies alongside mixed-age sessions.
Can I join partway through a term?
Yes — you can join at any point during the term if places are available. The Weybridge classes are popular, so earlier enquiries give you a better chance of securing the time that suits your baby's age group. Contact Becky on 07976 736407 or at weybridge@babysensory.co.uk to check.
What actually happens in a session?
Each class moves through creative play, baby massage, tummy time, movement, and exploration of textures and scents, woven together with original songs, rhymes, and simple signing activities. The structure follows a baby's natural play-rest-play rhythm with quieter moments built in. Sessions close with womb-sound relaxation to settle babies before you leave.
Can I feed or comfort my baby during the class?
Yes. Parents are welcome to feed or cuddle their baby at any point during the session.
My baby has a physical or sensory impairment — can they still join?
Yes. Activities across the Baby Sensory programme are adapted so that all babies, including those with physical or sensory impairments, can fully participate. If you have specific questions before the first session, Becky is the right person to speak to directly.
