About this class
Hartbeeps at Cirencester Baptist Church Coxwell Suite is run by Sadie Ditchburn, franchise owner for Hartbeeps North Wiltshire — a patch covering North Wiltshire, Cirencester, and Lechlade. Two age-staged sessions run each week: Baby Beeps on Thursdays at 11:00 for babies from around 8 to 18 months, and Happy House on Tuesdays at 10:00 for confident walkers up to pre-schoolers aged 18 months to 4 years. Each class runs for 45 minutes.
Baby Beeps is designed for babies who can sit sturdily but aren't yet steady on their feet. Sessions are built around Hartbeeps' original remixed nursery rhymes and feature baby signing — BSL-inspired, with over 250 signs available across the programme — alongside hundreds of sensory props, large puppet characters, dressing-up, and a light show. A different theme runs each week, so the room genuinely looks different every time. Towards the end of the session, curtains are dimmed, stars light up overhead, and blankets and feathers come out: a calmer, quieter few minutes before the class closes.
Happy House takes a different approach for older toddlers. Characters Dexter Cat and Adrian Mouse lead children on a fresh sound journey each week, drawing together music, drama, movement, and imaginative play. The sessions are designed in line with the EYFS and build on rich vocabulary, counting, rhythm, and self-expression. All Hartbeeps teachers — called Imaginators — are fully trained and hold DBS checks, and the franchise carries public liability cover of up to £5,000,000.

Common questions
Which class suits my child's age?
Baby Beeps (Thursdays, 11:00–11:45) is for babies sitting sturdily through to early walkers — roughly 8 to 18 months. Happy House (Tuesdays, 10:00–10:45) is for confident walkers up to pre-schoolers aged around 18 months to 4 years. Hartbeeps works to an age-and-stage model rather than strict cut-offs, because children develop at their own pace, so there is some flexibility around the transitions.
How does booking work?
Classes are term-time only and must be booked in advance — there are no drop-in spaces. Places are sold on a first-come, first-served basis online, and pre-payment secures your spot. The standard Hartbeeps booking structure runs in half-term blocks of around seven weeks, paid in advance. If you cancel at least one week before the half term begins, the fee is refunded minus a £5.00 administration charge. Missed sessions due to illness or holidays cannot be refunded, transferred, or carried over to the following course. Confirm the exact booking arrangements for this venue with Sadie when you enquire.
What should we bring and wear?
Shoes come off before class. For babies in Baby Beeps, a baby grow is recommended — it avoids anything that might restrict movement during the bouncier parts of the session. Comfortable, easy-to-move-in clothes will suit toddlers in Happy House.
Does a younger sibling pay full price?
Siblings under 12 months attend free, on the understanding they share props and blankets with their older sibling. If you would prefer them to have their own props, blankets, and dressing-up items, you book them their own toadstool — Hartbeeps' word for a class place. Older siblings attending the same class receive a 50% sibling rate.
