About this class
Baby Sensory North Leeds runs at the WOW Centre on Far Moss in Alwoodley — a baby-friendly space with ample free parking and on-site baby weighing facilities, which makes the whole outing a little more practical on a busy week. Classes run Monday to Friday in term time, with multiple slots each day for Younger Babies (0–8 months) and Older Babies (5–13 months) separately, as well as mixed-age groups. Monday alone offers three slots — 09:45, 11:15, and 12:45 — and Tuesday and Wednesday each have morning and early-afternoon options too.
The class is led by Jemma, who first came to Baby Sensory as a parent seven years ago with her own son and has been teaching the programme for five years. Many Baby Sensory practitioners found their way to teaching through exactly that experience, and Jemma is no exception. Every session follows a detailed lesson plan covering what babies touch, see, hear, smell and feel. The sensory layout is arranged to match the distance at which young babies see objects clearly, and instrument decibel levels are measured to make sure they are not too loud.
A typical hour opens with a signature song, then moves through creative play, tummy time, movement, textured objects and scent exploration, with sensory signing woven in alongside a mix of original and traditional songs and rhymes to support early speech and language. The session closes with sounds that mimic the womb to settle babies at the end. Everything is designed so you can repeat the activities at home in simple, practical ways — and you're welcome to feed or cuddle your baby at any point during the session.
