Adventure Babies is a multi award winning, sensory storytelling baby and toddler class. We bring brilliant books to life through props, sensory material, lighting and messy play!
All classes are suitable for newborns but 0-12 month sessions are aimed at less mobile babies. Stories are brought to life through gentle sensory stimulation to support all round development and help your baby fall in love with books and reading.

Our sessions will both support your child’s development and welcome you into a lively, positive community of mums and dads.
Each activity in our classes is planned by Early Years experts and linked to the Early Years framework to support your child’s development in the best possible way.

– Unfortunately, we won’t be able to accommodate older siblings.
– Admission will be free, and tea, coffee, and biscuits will be provided. In the summer months the event may be held outdoors.
Our leading swim programme has been developed to build water confidence and skills throughout your little one’s first five years. We work closely with Swim England, the national governing body for swimming, and we’ve woven their learn to swim framework through our programme. You’ll love nothing more than seeing their progression as your little one moves from fun floating, kicking and splashing to swimming independently.
And not only will your little one develop key aquatic skills, but we’ll also give them the knowledge to keep themselves safe. By the end of their journey, your child will be able to independently swim to the side and climb out to safety, wherever they are.
You can be safe in the knowledge that you’re learning from the best. Our teachers are the only ones who can hold Swim England’s Level 3 qualification, the highest that can be achieved. And they’re the most passionate around, there to guide you at every stroke of your little one’s journey. Because the more confident they are in the water, the more confident they’ll be out of it too.
So what are you waiting for? When they’re ready, we’re ready.
If you have any questions, want to know more or to get your little one signed up, just get in touch.
