About this class
Baby Sensory at Godalming United Church is run by the local Guildford & Godalming franchise. Anna Follos — who came to Baby Sensory as a parent during her own maternity leave before founding the franchise — leads Thursday sessions. Lucy Dobson, who has nearly six years in the Baby Sensory world and nine years of primary teaching before that, takes Tuesdays. There is also a Monday younger-babies slot (0–6 months, 1–2 pm), all term time only.
Each session follows a structured plan built around a baby's natural play-rest-play cycle. A typical hour moves through creative play, tummy time, movement, massage, and a sensory area arranged at the precise distance newborn eyes focus on clearly. Music runs throughout: original songs composed by Dr Lin Day — including Say Hello to the Sun — alongside traditional rhymes chosen to build early speech patterns. Instruments are checked against decibel limits so nothing is uncomfortably loud for small ears. Every session closes by mimicking womb sounds to settle babies before you leave. With a different theme each week across 40 core lesson plans plus seasonal additions, the content keeps shifting as your baby grows.
Sessions are split by developmental stage: 0–6 months and 6–12 months. On Tuesdays Lucy runs four slots across the day — younger babies at 9:45 am and 1 pm, older babies at 11:15 am and 2:30 pm — so there is usually something that fits around a nap or a school run. Thursday mornings with Anna offer three slots on the same pattern. The venue has parking directly outside the church and generous buggy space inside; the Crown Court car park is a short walk away if you need it. Sessions are priced at £9.20 each, with a six-week Spring Term block available at £57.

Activities draw on creative play, massage, tummy time, movement, textures, scents, and music — including sensory signing to help communication from birth. Each class includes a bonding section, expert tips from your class leader, and an exploratory play area. The session ends with sounds that mimic the womb to settle babies gently. Parents are welcome to feed or cuddle at any point during the class.
