About this class
Baby Sensory Stockport is run by Natalie Hitchen from the WOW Centre at 14 The Precinct, Cheadle Hulme. Natalie took over the Stockport franchise in April 2014 and teaches Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. The Hello Baby strand — aimed at ages from birth to 13 months up to three months — sits alongside the main Baby Sensory programme, which covers the full 0 to 13 month window. That means there is an appropriate class from the very first weeks of life right through to the toddler threshold.
Each session follows a detailed lesson plan covering everything your baby touches, sees, hears, smells and feels. A signature song opens every session, then the class moves through creative play, tummy time, textures, scents, movement and visual development activities, sensory signing, and a mix of original and traditional songs and rhymes chosen to encourage early speech and language. The sensory area is laid out to match the distance at which young babies actually see clearly, and any instruments used are kept to measured decibel levels. Every session closes by mimicking the sounds of the womb.
Activities are designed so you can repeat them at home between sessions. Parents are welcome to feed or cuddle during the class — nothing stops for a hungry baby. Classes run in termly blocks of roughly six or seven weeks. Reach Natalie at stockport@babysensory.co.uk, call 07852 207510, or find Baby Sensory Stockport on Facebook and Instagram at @babysensorystockport.

Common questions
Which ages can attend at Cheadle Hulme?
The WOW Centre runs two strands. Hello Baby is for newborns from birth to three months, with sessions focused on observing your baby's responses, identifying their cues and needs, understanding the causes of colic, and gentle massage. The main Baby Sensory programme is open from birth to 13 months. Both strands are available, so you do not need to wait until your baby reaches a certain age before starting.
