About this class
Baby Sensory South Devon is a franchise co-owned by Natalie Tordoff and Rachael Bradshaw, based at The Wow Centre on Lister Close in Plympton. Natalie leads all Baby Sensory classes at the centre. She qualified as an Early Years primary school teacher in 2012 and spent ten years in the same local primary school before leaving in July 2022 to join Baby Sensory — which means she brings genuine early-years classroom experience to the session floor. The centre has plenty of free parking, space for prams, and baby scales available at every session.
Classes run on Tuesdays (10:00–11:00) and Wednesdays (11:00–12:00) and are open from birth through to 13 months. If your baby is under three months, the Hello Baby strand — which concentrates on reading your baby's cues, understanding their cries, and early touch and massage — is a natural place to start.
Every session opens with a signature song and then works through a structured set of activities — textures, scents, movement, visual development, and music — all drawn from a detailed lesson plan. Songs and rhymes are woven through the class to lay early groundwork for speech and language, and sensory signing gives parents and babies a shared language before words arrive. Towards the end, the room quietens and the class recreates womb sounds to help babies settle.
Weekly themes rotate — names in the current schedule include Sparkles, Magic Box, Rock n Roll, Oriental Garden, and Noah's Ark — so there is fresh material each time even though the session structure stays familiar. You are welcome to feed or cuddle your baby at any point; the programme is designed to work around your baby, not demand their full attention. Most activities are straightforward enough to repeat at home, so the ideas from Tuesday's session can carry on through the week.

What age range are these classes for?
Classes are open from birth to 13 months. The Hello Baby strand — which focuses on observing your baby's responses, understanding the main types of crying, and early touch and massage — is aimed specifically at newborns up to three months and can be a particularly gentle starting point.
What happens in a typical session?
Each class opens with a signature song, then moves through a structured set of activities covering textures, scents, movement, visual development, tummy time, and music — all following a detailed lesson plan. Sensory signing runs throughout to support early communication. Every session closes by recreating womb sounds to help babies wind down. The weekly theme changes each week (current themes in the rotation include Sparkles, Rock n Roll, and Noah's Ark), so the content varies even as the structure stays familiar. You are free to feed or cuddle your baby at any point.
