Looking forward to welcoming all our young farmers to the this week โค๏ธ
๐๐ป๐๐ปSay hello!๐๐ป๐๐ป
With a new half term starting tomorrow itโs time to introduce myself โ๏ธ
My name is Lauren and I am the owner and class leader for Baby Sensory Camberley ๐
I live in Mytchett with my husband Oscar, my 8 year old son Max and our cat Kit ๐ฝ
Before joining Baby Sensory I was an โoutstandingโ OFSTED registered childminder and before that I was a criminal paralegal! ๐
I like horror films, Disney and Harry Potter ๐ง๏ธ
I donโt like milk, frogs or crabs ๐ธ
But what I really really love, is my job and I canโt wait to welcome you all to our Winter term ๐ญ
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธNew to class? โญ๏ธโญ๏ธ
With a new half term starting on Monday I thought I would repost this advice for any of our new starters . . .
Are you worried about attending Baby Sensory for the first time? ๐ณ
Don't be! โค๏ธ
It doesn't matter if your baby needs a feed ๐คฑ๐ผ
It doesn't matter if your baby needs a nappy change ๐
It doesn't matter if your baby cries ๐ญ
It doesn't matter if your baby falls asleep ๐ค
As a parent myself I know that these things happen (they happened to me too!) and the other parents in your class wonโt bat an eyelid- we are all in the same boat! ๐ฅฐ
We all know that babies need frequent nappy changes, feeds & naps and that those things won't stop just because you aren't at home ๐ก
At Baby Sensory Camberley we welcome all parents are caters with babies aged 0 - 13 months and we'd like to reassure you that your first class won't be anywhere near as scary as you think it will be ๐
Promise! ๐
๐๐Growing pumpkins ๐๐
What a difference a year makes! โค๏ธ
Look at our teeny tiny baby pumpkin last year compared to a bigger baby pumpkin this year! ๐ฅฐ
I couldnโt resist sharing this ๐
๐๐Fun Friday๐๐
We had the perfect pumpkin parties to celebrate all things Autumn ๐
We practiced tummy time on our pumpkins ๐ we explored some autumnal treasures ๐ and we had a bonfire party with fireworks ๐
Such a wonderful class and definitely one of my favourites โค๏ธ

Also me - โ. . . So that means I can buy all the different decorative squashes??โโ
Iโve been collecting lots of lovely pumpkins and squashes ready for our Baby Pumpkin patches next week ๐
๐คฉ๐คฉWinter Themes๐คฉ๐คฉ
I have been busy planning our themes for the Winter term! โ๏ธ
Each week at Baby Sensory is different so you wonโt repeat the same class twice โ
Next term we will be having a trip to Old McDonalds Farm ๐ a Teddy Bears Picnic for Children in Need ๐งธ and an end of term Xmas special ๐
๐ผ ๐
But before that, we have our Baby Pumpkin Specials next week! ๐
Busy, busy, busy! ๐ฅฐ
I canโt wait to have lots of fun together this winter โ๏ธ
๐ฝ ๐ฝ Scarecrows! ๐ฝ๐ฝ
Every Oct half term Max and I spend a day visiting the Binfield Scarecrow Trail โค๏ธ
A ยฃ3 map and a day full of exploring feels like a wholesome and cheap day out ๐
This year there are 57 to find (Max insisted we find all of them!) and the trail is on residential paths so easy for buggies or scooters if you take the older kids ๐๐ป
A couple of cafes, a pub and parks on route help make a day of it too! โ
If youโre interested itโs on until Sunday ๐
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธReviewsโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ
Thank you so much for the reviews this half term! โ
Itโs so helpful for new customers to hear real life reviews from you all โค๏ธ
As you know, a lot of my business comes through word of mouth . . . So your reviews are really important to me and help me spread the word about Baby Sensory Camberley ๐ฅฐ
If you have a spare minute you can leave me a review on my page or on my Google reviews (or both!) ๐๐ป
Thank you ๐

๐๐Pumpkin picking๐๐
Our annual trip to for Pumpkin week! โค๏ธ
Pleasantly surprised with the nice weather too โ๏ธ
ยฃ3.50 a ticket (under 2โs go free) โ
2 big pumpkin fields, lots of fun little displays on the walk to and from the fields and some lovely bbq and Pumpkin food at the end ๐
๐๐Pat mats!๐๐
Why donโt you make some spooky pat mats this Halloween? ๐ป
Youโll need
A laminating pouch
A heat source (iron or straighteners)
Some duct tape
Something exciting to put inside . . .
Iโve used the seeds and flesh of a pumpkin ๐ some spooky eyes and green glitter glue ๐ and some black water with gold glitter for some sparkle โจ
First step is to seal 3 edges of the laminating pouch with the heat source to make a pocket โ
Then put your contents in - remember not to add too much liquid (as we want a pat mat and not a water balloon) ๐ค๐ป
Squish out as much air as possible by folding it over ๐จ
Seal the 4th edge with the heat source to secure it. Make sure there are no kinks in the edges and that no liquid is escaping โ
You can also add duct tape around the edges to make it a bit more robust and secure โ ๏ธ
Then let your baby pat, push, squish and explore! ๐
Great for hand development, strengthening the muscles and for hand eye coordination ๐ฅณ
Make sure your baby is supervised when playing ๐๐ป
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธHalf termโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ
Donโt forget - we have no classes next week because Iโm off for half term โค๏ธ
The week after we have our Baby Pumpkin Specials (emails will be going out next week) ๐
We will be back for the Winter term W/C 6th November โ๏ธ

Waving goodbye to some amazing babies this half term ๐ญ
Itโs always sad to see them go ๐๐ป
But it was wonderful getting to see them grow and develop week on week โค๏ธ
๐๐Fun Friday๐๐
We ended this term by sailing the seven seas as Baby Pirates! ๐ดโโ ๏ธ
We went on the hunt for buried treasure ๐ we played pirate peek a boo ๐ซฃ and we splashed our feet in the (paddling pool) sea ๐
A wonderful way to end this half term โค๏ธ
I really hope you all enjoyed this term as much as I have ๐

Yateley is a 5 week term (no classes on 30th Nov as Iโm off to the Whats on 4 kids awards ๐) and costs ยฃ45 ๐ฅณ

Baby Sensory was the first (and original) baby programme to offer a complete approach to learning and sensory development from birth to 13 months. Designed to stimulate, educate and provide precious memories during the all-important first year of life, Baby Sensory has won multiple awards both nationally and internationally since 2008.
Baby Sensory, Toddler Sense and Baby Sensory Foundations founder, Dr. Lin Day (PhD., M. Phil., PGCE., FETC., BSc., Dip Ed.) is one of the UK's leading parenting experts. We're proud to say that Baby Sensory is backed by over 35 years of research in childhood learning and development. That's why we always explain what we're doing so you can make your baby's first year a truly precious time of learning and sensory exploration.
What makes Baby Sensory unique is that every activity has been carefully designed to stimulate your baby's senses and move development and learning forwards. And behind every Baby Sensory session, there's an incredibly detailed lesson plan backing up everything your baby touches, sees, hears, smells and feels!
"I loved running Baby Sensory classes - seeing the babies learn and develop and my parents having so much fun. I believe that early education gives babies the very best chance in life: a head start that makes a real difference to future learning." Dr. Lin Day.
We believe in engaging our studentsโ education processes while developing their learning skills.
