About this class
Holy Cross Church Hall in Lichfield hosts two Baby Sensory sessions every Monday during term time. The earlier slot — mixed ages, 0 to 13 months — starts at 09:45 and runs until 10:45. A second session, for ages from birth to 13 months, follows at 11:00 and wraps at 12:00.
Both sessions are run by Vicky Woodings, who has led Baby Sensory and Hello Baby classes in the Lichfield area since 2012. Before becoming a class practitioner, Vicky taught French and German and held training delivery roles at a building society. The programme itself was designed by Baby Sensory founder Dr Lin Day, who holds a PhD and has over 40 years of practical experience working with parents and children; she wrote every lesson plan, training handbook and article across the Baby Sensory programmes.
Each class follows a detailed lesson plan. You can expect a signature song to open the session, followed by creative play, tummy time, movement, massage, visual development, different textures, scents and music — all chosen so you can repeat the activities at home without specialist equipment. Sensory signing runs throughout to help you and your baby build communication from the earliest weeks. Every session closes with the practitioner mimicking the sounds of the womb to settle babies before you leave. You are welcome to feed or cuddle your baby at any point during the class.
If your baby is under three months, the Lichfield franchise also offers Hello Baby Massage — a seven-week course priced at £66.50. The next intake starts on Monday 7 September and is open to babies born from 1 June 2026 onwards.
