About this class
Baby Sensory at Cathcart Trinity Church is run by Kirsty Barclay, franchise owner of Baby Sensory West Central Glasgow. Classes run every Wednesday across three time slots — 10am, 11:30am, and 1pm — so you can pick whichever fits around nap schedules and the rest of your week.
The programme covers babies from birth to 13 months. Each session follows a detailed lesson plan drawn up by Baby Sensory's founder, Dr Lin Day, who has over 40 years of practical experience working with parents and children. The sensory area is arranged to match the distances at which young babies see clearly, and instrument sound levels are measured to make sure they are not too loud.
Within that structure, every session moves through creative play, massage, tummy time, movement, textures, scents, and music. A signature song opens each class. A mix of original and traditional songs and rhymes runs throughout to support early speech and language development, and sensory signing activities are built in to help parents and babies communicate from the start. At the close of every session, the sounds of the womb are played to soothe babies before you head off. Everything in the session is designed so you can repeat it at home during the rest of the week. Parents are welcome to feed or cuddle their baby at any point — no need to step out.

What happens in a session?
Each session follows a structured lesson plan. You can expect sensory play with textures, scents, and visual materials; music using original and traditional songs and rhymes to support early speech and language; massage; tummy time; movement; and sensory signing to help you and your baby communicate from early on. Every session opens with a signature song and closes with gentle womb sounds to settle babies. The activities are designed to be repeated at home, so the week between sessions is part of the programme too.
Can I feed my baby during the class?
Yes. Parents are welcome to feed or cuddle their baby at any point during the session.
Can I buy Baby Sensory props to use at home?
Toys and props from Baby Sensory classes — including the 'Say Hello' range designed by Dr Lin Day — can be purchased through the Baby Sensory shop.
