About this class
Every Wednesday, the Windmill Community Centre in Walkwood, Redditch opens to babies and their grown-ups for Baby Sensory — a structured sensory programme for little ones from birth through to 13 months. Three sessions run through the morning and into lunchtime (10:15, 11:35, and 12:55), so there is usually a slot that fits around feeds and naps. Classes run term time only.
Louise Walker leads these Redditch sessions. She sees around 160 babies every week across the Bromsgrove, Redditch and Barnt Green area and has worked with thousands of families over the course of her career. Each session follows a detailed lesson plan drawn up by Dr Lin Day, the founder of Baby Sensory — a practitioner with over 40 years of experience working with parents and children — covering exactly what your baby touches, sees, hears, smells and feels.
A typical Wednesday session opens with the Baby Sensory signature song, then moves through a mix of activities: creative play, tummy time, movement, visual stimulation, textures, scents and music. Alongside this, Louise uses sensory signing — gentle hand signals that give babies a way to begin communicating before words arrive. Songs and rhymes, both original to the programme and traditional, weave through every session to support early speech and language development. At the close, the sounds of the womb are played softly to bring things to a calm end. Parents are welcome to feed or cuddle their baby at any point during the session.

Common questions
What age is this class for?
The Baby Sensory programme at Windmill Community Centre is for ages from birth to 13 months up to 13 months. If your baby is very new — under three months — the Hello Baby programme within the Baby Sensory family was specifically founded in 2017 for that birth-to-three-months window and focuses on helping parents read and respond to their baby's cues from the earliest days.
Which sessions run on Wednesdays and when?
There are three Wednesday slots at Windmill Community Centre: 10:15, 11:35, and 12:55. All run term time only, so it is worth checking the current term dates before booking.
How much do classes cost?
Sessions are priced between £9.00 and £45.00. Contact Louise Walker directly to confirm the current pricing and availability.
How do I book?
Get in touch with the Bromsgrove and Redditch franchise directly: phone 07780 903871 or email birminghamsouth@babysensory.co.uk. Louise can talk through which session time suits your baby's age and routine.
What should I expect in a session?
Every session is built around a detailed lesson plan covering all five senses. You can expect a signature welcome song, movement and tummy time, sensory play with textures, lights and scents, singing and rhymes to support early language, sensory signing activities, and a gentle, womb-sound wind-down at the close. You are welcome to feed or cuddle your baby at any point during the class.
