About this class
Every Tuesday, SKA Studios in Eskbank hosts three back-to-back Baby Sensory sessions, each an hour long and matched to a specific developmental stage. The 10:15 AM slot is for ages from birth to 13 months; the 11:45 AM session is for newborns through to 6 months; and the 1:15 PM class covers the full 0–13 month range. Mo Park — a mum of two who attended Baby Sensory with her own children — leads the Edinburgh East & Midlothian classes.
Each session follows a detailed lesson plan covering what your baby touches, sees, hears, smells and feels. You can expect creative play, tummy time, movement, textures, scents and music, alongside original and traditional songs and rhymes chosen to support early speech and language. Sensory signing runs through every session, giving parents a practical way to communicate with their baby long before words arrive. The hour opens with a signature song and closes with sounds that mimic the womb — a deliberate, gentle wind-down.
SKA Studios has parking, buggy parking, baby-change facilities and disabled access. Feeding or cuddling your baby at any point during the session is entirely welcome. Sessions are £9.00 each. To book or ask questions, Mo can be reached on 07778 722 842 or at edinburgheast@babysensory.co.uk; the franchise is also on Facebook and Instagram as @babysensoryedinburgheast.

What actually happens in a session?
Each session opens with a signature song, then moves through a planned mix of creative play, tummy time, movement, visual activities, textures, scents and music. Songs and rhymes are woven throughout to support early speech and language development, and sensory signing gives parents and babies a shared language well before words arrive. The session closes with sounds that mimic the womb to bring the energy down gently. The programme is built on the fact that the brain doubles in volume over the first year through sensory learning, and every activity is designed with that in mind.
What should we bring?
Bring whatever you need to feed or settle your baby — you are welcome to feed or cuddle at any point during the session. The venue has baby-change facilities, buggy parking and disabled access, and there is parking at Hardengreen Industrial Estate.
