Bloom
Bloom Baby Classes are multi award winning sensory classes and are run all over the UK. We have two classes, Caterpillar Club for babies aged 6 weeks – 6 months and Busy Bees for babies aged 6 months to walking.
Caterpillar
Caterpillar Club is a gentle baby development class encouraging bonding. Our Caterpillar class awakens babies first senses and stimulates in a fun, yet soothing way, using music, sensory props and sensory lights. These encourage gross motor skills and body awareness. There is also a different fun theme every week. We end the class teaching baby massage leaving your baby ready for a long nap.
Busy Bees
Busy Beesis a highly interactive, musical class, focusing on baby’s growing confidence within the big wide world. Encouraging both fine and gross motor skills, teaching body awareness and stimulating your baby’s perception of sounds with our fun range of songs and activities. At theme time, your baby gets to explore our range of bright props and exciting heuristic treasure baskets whilst developing their social skills with fellow Bloom babies!
Upstairs, our cozy cafe is open Mon-Fri, 8:30 AM – 4 PM, and Sat, 9 AM – 1 PM. Parents/carers can gather while kids enjoy our free toy library.
It’s never too early for your little one to start learning and have some Serious Fun. From infant to toddler, our classes promote early development and provide a strong foundation for your childʼs critical first three years. And since you’re along for the ride, you’ll be right there to celebrate every discovery with smiles, hugs and giggles.
Looking for a class that feels like a warm hug?
At Dream Time we strongly believe every mum should feel safe, nurtured and supported. From the moment you step through the door Emily will help you feel welcomed and relaxed in a home-from-home non-judgmental space.
The first hour you’ll be guided through giving your baby a full body massage, full of countless proven benefits from encouraging longer, deeper sleeps and helping with feeding to assisting development and muscle tone to name a few.
The class includes massage, yoga, sensory, soft gymnastics, lots of singing and dedicated time to bond with your little one. For the remaining 40 minutes we pop the kettle on, eat our body-weight in biscuits and relax in the best like-minded company.
Life-long friendships are forged at Dream Time – this truly is more than just a baby class.

Drinks will be available for grown ups but please bring your own reusable cup. Cups will not be provided so please don’t forget!!
Toilet and baby change facilities will be open – as always, please take nappies away with you to dispose of off site.
Sessions are £3.50 plus 50p per additional child – we can only accept card payments (we have a snazzy new card machine!), we will no longer be accepting cash.
