About this class
Baby Sensory at Chinnor Rugby Club brings the Oxford North franchise to Thame every Tuesday, with Emily running two distinct sessions: a 9:30–10:30am class for ages from birth to 13 months and a 12:30–1:30pm class for younger babies up to 13 months. The rugby club sits at the junction of Kingsey Road and Tythrop Way, with plenty of free parking.
Each session is built around a baby's natural play-rest-play rhythm, moving through creative play, baby massage, tummy time, movement, and textured sensory exploration. There is music throughout — original songs composed by Dr Lin Day, including 'Say Hello to the Sun' and 'Wave Goodbye' — alongside sensory signing, which gives babies a way to communicate before words arrive. Every class includes dedicated Bonding Time, Expert Tips, and a hands-on Exploratory Play Area. The instruments used in class have been measured for decibel level, and the play area is arranged to match the distance at which babies see objects clearly. Sessions close by mimicking womb sounds, easing the transition before you head home.
You are welcome to feed or cuddle your baby at any point during a session — no need to step out or wait. Classes are term-time only and must be booked in advance; there are no drop-in spaces.
If your baby is under three months, Hello Baby sessions are also offered through the Oxford North franchise. The programme covers gentle observation of your newborn's cues, a colic and comfort workshop, and baby massage techniques. To find out what is available and when, Emily can be reached on 07717 757007 or at Oxfordnorth@babysensory.co.uk.
