Baby College
Baby College classes are for babies from birth to 3 years. Classes include a carefully designed mixture of physical, multi-sensory and cognitive games, exercises and activities including music, dancing, signing and much more – all designed to cover every aspect of your child’s development.
Our structured programme provides your baby with a complete developmental workout. It helps to build the strong neural pathways that are vital for early brain development and all subsequent learning. At the same time Baby College also offers you a useful insight into baby development so you can learn all about your growing baby.
Infants 0-9 months
Weekly topics and a gentle and complete programme suitable even for newborns. In the infant classes, gentle exercises are taught to help replace your baby’s infant reflexes with more mature responses. Fun multi-sensory stimulation helps them to learn new skills.
Toddlers 9-18 months
Building on early development and exploring this new and exciting world, your toddler will be fascinated by the world around them. Additional learning themes and new skills are introduced. An active class that promotes language and social skills and body awareness.
Juniors 18-36 months
Encouraging and supporting independent learning in preparation for nursery. Now even more active, emphasis is placed on encouraging confidence in their social skills and growing more independent. Using varied, fun and stimulating games, you can ensure they are ready when it is time for pre-school.

Amazing time at Kew on Friday night seeing the lights. If your little one is scared of Father Christmas or lots of noise and excitement, light shows are a great tradition to start. Waddesdon and Blenheim are other places locally which have similar displays. Do you know of any others? #familytradition #christmas #light #sound #calm #marlow #stokenchurch #beaconsfield #Amersham #buckinghamshire

Normal Sunday morning activity! 3000 Santas running round Marlow. Lovely to see some of my Baby College mums on the side line #marlow #santafunrun
Sometimes negotiating our little ones' personalities feels like a huge job.
This week's blog might just help.

Find a class near you or enquire about franchise opportunities.Sophie offers lovely sessions, so if you're pregnant, or recently had a baby, it's worth a look.“Sophie’s approach is fun, honest, informative and current with no stigmas or pressure attached.”
“It has been amazing and we can't recommend it enough. Sophie is so approachable, enthusiastic, positive, helpful and friendly. We learnt so much about our options and both now feel alot more confident as we embark on our journey as parents.”
“A real personal and unique approach to antenatal and postnatal classes.”
“Sophie helped me to feel positive and informed about birth whereas before it was something I felt very anxious about due to horror stories I’d heard or what I had seen in the media. The classes helped me to be open minded and positive about whatever journey our birth took and not disappointed if something didn’t go to plan.”
“I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sophie to any expecting and/or new mums - she’s an amazing find!!”
