About this class
Baby Sensory at Frant Memorial Hall is part of the East Grinstead, Tunbridge Wells, Crowborough and Uckfield franchise, run by Andrea Pyett. Two sessions take place each Tuesday at the village hall on The Green in Frant: the 6–13 months group meets at 10:40, the birth–6 months group at 12:00.
Every session follows a structured lesson plan covering all five senses. Babies encounter different textures, scents and visual patterns while parents join in with a mix of original and traditional songs and rhymes — chosen specifically to support early speech and language development. Sensory signing runs through each class, giving parents and babies a shared means of communication before spoken words arrive. The sensory area is arranged to match the distances at which young babies see objects clearly, so even a very new baby can engage with what's unfolding around them.
Sessions open with a signature song and close with sounds that mimic the womb — a consistent shape that babies begin to recognise week on week. Activities such as massage, tummy time and movement sequences are introduced in ways designed to be repeated at home, so the work of each session carries through the week. Parents are welcome to feed or settle their baby at any point; the session is built around the baby, not a fixed clock.

What happens in a session?
Each session opens with a signature song and moves through a planned sequence of activities covering creative play, massage, tummy time, movement, visual stimulation, textures, scents and music. Sensory signing features in every class. Sessions close with sounds that mimic the womb to gently settle babies. The activities are designed so parents can repeat them at home during the week.
What should I bring?
No specialist kit is required. Dress your baby comfortably for movement and floor time, and bring your usual kit for a morning out — nappy bag, feeds, anything your baby needs for settling. You're welcome to feed or cuddle your baby at any point during the session. Toys and props used in Baby Sensory classes, including the 'Say Hello' range designed by founder Dr Lin Day, are available from the Baby Sensory shop if you'd like to continue activities at home.
