Tots Play Basingstoke & Hook

Becoming a parent is a pretty life changing experience isn’t it?

You go from laughter to tears, joy to frustration, love to worry and back again every day, if not every hour!

This is something we really understand at Tots Play, and why our Baby Development course is especially for parents with new babies, and the perfect first baby class for you and your little one.

Not only will you learn lots of different ways to connect, bond, play and have fun with your baby during the course, but you’ll find a welcoming, supportive environment, surrounded by others who “get” that your life just changed completely, and that can really help when you’re navigating all the ups and downs that having a new baby involves!

The course is everything you need for your baby in one, and you and your little one will experience a wide range of activities to support different areas of development, including baby massage, baby yoga, baby sign language, tummy time, calming techniques and sensory play, but you’ll come away from the course having learned and gained so much more.

Come and join us.

Want to have a go at some Yoga with your baby at home, here is a great song that you can do from birth. For older tots try sitting them up in your lap if they don't like being on their back or are a bit too wriggly 😀
