About this class
Baby Sensory at Hayle RFC runs on Tuesdays through the summer term. This block runs from 19 May to 21 July, with no class on 26 May. The Hayle classes sit within the Mid & West Cornwall franchise; the West Cornwall area is led by Vicki Dewar, a former Early Years Teacher and mum to two daughters.
Sessions welcome babies from birth up to 13 months, split into two developmental stages: birth to six months, and seven to thirteen months. Each session is structured around a baby's natural play-rest-play cycle. You can expect sensory play, tummy time, baby massage, movement activities, and an exploratory play area arranged to match the distance at which babies see objects most clearly. Music runs through every session — original songs composed by Dr Lin Day, who founded the programme, alongside traditional rhymes chosen to build early speech and language. The instruments have all been measured for decibel level to make sure they are not too loud for young ears. Every session closes by mimicking the sounds of the womb to settle babies down.
For very new arrivals, the Hello Baby strand covers three specific areas: observing your newborn's behavioural cues, a colic and comfort workshop, and baby massage drawing on reflexology, yoga, sensory integration, and containment techniques. If you need to feed or cuddle your baby during any part of the session, that is always welcome.
Classes cost £9 each. A three-week trial is available for £27, or you can book a full term. To ask about current availability, contact the Mid & West Cornwall team on 07971 448140 or at truro@babysensory.co.uk.
