Baby & toddler groups at Tumble Gymnastics and Activity Centre are a unique collection of programmes, planned and developed by our highly skilled practitioner, Suzanne Thomson.

Suzanne has 30 years of training and experience working in the early years’ field and is committed to delivering a professional service.

Using relative research, theories, and studies, sessions will encourage child development, promote interaction and bonding with parents/carers, introduce new experiences, and help support social relationships for both babies and adults.

Delivered through a variety of fabulous fun music, dance, and movement activities, interactive stories, and sensory resources/activities, in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

Parents and children will enjoy all of this and more through our weekly planned, sessions with the emphasis on learning through baby/child-led, sensory, and heuristic play that can easily be transferred to a home environment.

Suzanne works hard to plan and deliver a new and continually improved Baby and Toddler Timetable with brand-new content and exclusive courses throughout the year.

Our activities are suitable from birth up to toddler stage.

If you have asked yourself any of these questions, then LET’SPLAY-TUMMY TIME is for you. All these questions and more will be discussed and outcomes practiced using gentle movements, play and interactive brain boosting activities. Every week you will learn new ‘tummy time’ techniques together with practical ways to help support your baby’s all round development through loving and nurturing play. It’s a great opportunity to make friends, chat and catch up in our coffee shop before and/or after this session.

Can another adult attend?

Yes! However, some classes are busier than others so it’s best to get in touch with us and ask the question. Two adults are welcome in baby massage.

Can I bring my baby in their pram and/or car seat?

Our classes are delivered in a small intimate, studio room, therefore space is taken up quickly with parents, changing bags, car seats etc. Car seats and buggies are best left in your car or in our main reception.  Some classes are busier than some.  Baby Massage and some Tummy Time may be okay to bring them into the studio room. Please do not leave your car seats in the cloakroom area.

Where is The Studio?

After signing in at our reception a member of staff should be available to guide you to the studio. If this is not the case, please go through the double doors and turn immediate left up the steps to the coffee shop.

If you would like to take the lift turn right through the double doors.

Look out for a very large, blue STUDIO notice in the coffee shop.

Please take shoes off before entering the studio for your class.

Are there changing facilities?

We have a number of changing facilities within our centre. There’s an accessible toilet/changing facility in our main reception and coffee shop.

You will also find a changing table in our cloakroom next to the studio.

What other facilities do you have?

You can use the coffee shop and our outdoor play area any time! You can stay before and after your sessions, but you are very welcome to use them if visiting the centre with friends or family.

We also have a free gym! It’s completely free, you can use it anytime and is situated next to the studio.  Please refer to the website for more information.

What do you have available for babies who are ‘on-the-move- but under 19 months

We deliver a great music and movement session called Tumble Tinies on the main gymnastics floor. Your baby needs to be (at least) showing signs of crawling to start Tinies.  This can be from whatever age as babies’ stage of development differs from one baby to another.
