About this class
Friday mornings at Kirkliston Community Centre bring together parents and babies — newborns through to 13-month-olds — for an hour of structured sensory play with Baby Sensory Edinburgh Central. The class is run by Bernadett Fakan, who came to Baby Sensory as a parent herself before launching her own franchise in October 2023.
Each session follows a detailed lesson plan covering everything your baby touches, sees, hears, smells and feels. Visual play is arranged at the exact distance babies can focus on; instrument volumes are measured to make sure nothing is too loud. Songs and rhymes — original and traditional — run through the session to develop early speech and language, alongside sensory signing activities that give you practical ways to communicate with your baby before words arrive. Every session closes the same way: with sounds that mimic the womb to soothe your baby before you head home. The activities are designed to be repeated at home, so the learning carries on well past Friday.
The venue sits on Queensferry Road in Kirkliston with an on-site car park and street parking nearby. If your baby is under three months, the Edinburgh Central franchise also offers Hello Baby — a separate programme built specifically for that earliest newborn window.
