Baby Sensory was the winner of Best Exported Activity for Children in Whatson4junior Awards 2011
"I started taking my baby (now a toddler) to baby sensory classes when he was 3.5 months old. we loved them - lights, music, smells, materials, textures, bubbles, puppets and lots more. Yvonne has so much material no class is ever the same. She also has some great ideas about how to use and play with household items , which proves you dont neeed expensive toys to stimulate babies. I would highly recommend these classes, and with the next one I would start even earlier" (LW, November 2011)

The classes are thoughtfully arranged with lots of lovely toys, low architect-style desks for kids to do their finest drawing, an airy yoga/gym space with bright mats and lots of pillows for running around and getting all that energy out, a piano, guitar, etc....and most importantly, dedicated and enthusiastic teachers who are interested in what they do.

"I was looking for a fun activity in English that my 18-month old son and I could do together and this turned out to be the perfect option. The class was lots of fun for both of us and we really enjoyed all the songs, stories, dancing and games. Monica was extremely professional and I loved getting the chance to meet other the other mothers who attended my class. This is definitely a terrific activity for anyone with either a baby or toddler (we did the toddler class but Monica also does baby classes)! One very nice thing about Kindermusik is that as part of the class fee, you receive a package of books and a CD that has all the songs and stories that you do in class. This way you can do the activities at home as well as in class. If you're looking for an affordable and fun way to spend time with your child while meeting other moms, this is the perfect class for you!" (JB, Sep 2011)
