🎵At home music can set the tone for a relaxed, warm and inviting atmosphere.

Music has the ability to boost your mood if we are feeling a little low and can soothe and calm you and your baby if you've had a difficult day or your baby has been particularly unsettled.

Our Say Hello to the Sun lullabies album is ideal for exactly this. With some of your favourite Baby Sensory®® tunes, soothing nursery rhymes and calming instrumental tracks you'll feel instantly relaxed.

Download now from Spotify, Amazon Music or Apple Music.

The clock change always gets us thinking about sleep (or lack of it when you're a parent!!) 😴

You don't need to have a bedtime routine for your baby but for some parents and babies it can be helpful to start to implement one, after the first few months. (It may help your baby (and you) to sleep better).

As a parent, you know you and your baby best so choose a routine that works for you both. What's most important is that the routine is simple, consistent, realistic, and achievable for you AND soothing, pleasant, and reassuring for your baby.

If you'd like some ideas of what to include in your baby's bedtime routine and how to implement this new routine, head to the latest blog on our website: https://www.babysensory.com/bedtimeroutineforbaby

💦Let's go swim DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO!

💦Let's go swim DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO!

Introducing your baby to water will do wonders for their physical, intellectual & social development as well as for their growth.

We all know that swimming is great for our physical health but for babies it also:

-helps to strengthen their muscles

-develops their hand-eye coordination

-helps to improve their balance

-supports the development of their personality & social skills

-increases their confidence & reduces the likelihood of a fear of water as they grow

-gives them some dedicated bonding time with parents or grandparents

-helps to reduce pressure on bones & joints (particularly helpful for babies or children with a disability)

Before you take your baby swimming why not introduce them to the concept of water by bringing them to one of our Baby Shark Baby Sensory® sessions?

Join us this month in on an interactive mission to find Baby Shark and his family in the Great Barrier Reef - the most magical place on Earth.

Never ever worry about feeding your baby during your Baby Sensory® class.

You are welcome to feed your baby however, wherever and whenever you wish.

It doesn't matter whether you're breastfeeding, formula feeding, combination feeding, feeding sat on the floor, feeding sat on a chair, feeding with a cover-up on, feeding at the start of the class or feeding all the way through the class...

..what's most important is that you and your baby are comfortable and happy ❤️

*For World Breastfeeding Week we've included this fabulous photo of two of our Baby Sensory® class leaders breastfeeding their babies whilst on a recent photoshoot!

There are SO many ways you can play with your baby.

You may even be playing with your baby without realising.

Playing with your baby doesn't necessarily have to involve toys.

And it doesn't need to be a planned or prepared activity either.

Playing with your baby might include:

-playing or singing music or nursery rhymes
-reading
-showing your baby props* such as a chiffon scarf, rainbow ribbon or baby safe mirror
-tummy time activities
-splashing in the bath

The most important thing to know is that all types of play will be beneficial to your baby.

*please note that adult supervision is always required when your baby is playing with props and/or toys.

You don’t need to put extra time aside for sensory play with your baby.

Routine activities such as feeding, nappy changing, dressing, bathing, cuddling, carrying and preparing for sleep all provide opportunities for sensory development.

Likewise, any kind of outing including trips to the supermarket, walks in the park, visiting friends and activities such as swimming all stimulate your baby's senses.

Emotional mummy post. Where has that time gone? Who remembers my baby Alfie in class last year at only 4 days old - he graduates this term at 13 months, but look what has just happened.

When will your baby walk?”

The short answer is when they are ready! Babies generally have their own timetables that can’t be rushed.

Some babies walk as early as 8 months and others as late as 2 years, however most take their first steps towards the end of their first year. My boys have walked at 10 months, 16 months, 12 months and then look what happened last night - my very own Baby Sensory baby Alfie took his 1st steps on the eve of turning 13 months - all with the lure of the tv remote control!

Premature babies generally walk later than full term babies of the same age because this skill is usually achieved at the age they would have been, had they been born at term and sometimes later.
If your baby isn't yet walking and you are concerned, talk to your health visitor who will likely be able to reassure you.
You can also read more about how your baby will learn to walk and the steps you can take to encourage them to take their first steps in our latest blog: https://www.babysensory.com/firststepsforbaby
