Classes run in 9 or 10-week blocks and bookings cost $20 p/class for a 45-min class (e.g. $200 for a 10x week term). Class fees are typically paid up front and in full if booking online, however, please contact us at bayside-qld@babysensory.com if you wish to discuss PAYG options (available for half-term and full-term bookings only).
We offer full-term bookings, half-term bookings (5-weeks) and a trial package of 3x sessions (on select classes - $60).
Are you eager to enroll but find that a class is already full? We recommend checking other class availabilities first, as spots may not open up during the current term. However, if your preferred class is the one you have your heart set on, be sure to join our waitlist. Spaces can become available unexpectedly, and being on the waitlist ensures you receive notifications for new classes or upcoming terms.

FAQs:
How long are classes?
Classes run for 45 minutes and are run weekly at your scheduled booking time.
How long does a term run for?
Most terms will run for 10-weeks, however, if any major public holidays fall on your schedule class day, occasionally some terms may run for 9-weeks.
What are my booking/class options?
We offer the below booking options for classes:
- A full term booking (10 or 9 weeks)
- A half-term booking (5 consecutive weeks)
- A trial pack of 3x consecutive classes ($60). Please note, trial classes will typically only be offered after a term has commenced, or are available on select classes, as full-term bookings are offered as priority in the first instance.
Do you offer single-class trials or casual bookings?
Unfortunately not for new families. Through much experience, we've found that sometimes there may be a 'settling-in' period for babies who are new to the programme, and it takes around three weeks for them to ease into a new class routine. It is for this reason we offer a 3x class trial pack, so caregivers can see the benefit of the programme (as one class isn't always enough to experience the magic!).
Note - if you are an existing or returning family, however, please contact us directly at bayside-qld@babysensory.com regarding casual classes.
Where are your classes located within the Bayside Region?
Manly West (Tuesday) - Bayside Uniting Church Hall, 420 Wondall Rd, Manly West
Alexandra Hills (Thursday & Friday) - Redlands Church of Christ Hall, 51 Allenby Rd, Alexandra Hills (access via McMillan Street)
Can I join after the term has started?
Absolutely! As every week is a different class theme so it doesn’t matter when you start during the term. If you join part way through a term, you will only pay for the remaining lessons in that term.
Do you offer a discount for families with multiple children (twins, triplets etc.) attending together?
Yes! We offer a reduced rate of 50% off the second child or, for families with three children, ‘buy 2, get one free'. Please note this discount applies only to siblings from the same immediate family attending our classes together (not cousins, friend referrals etc.).
Is my baby to young/old for classes?
As the programme was created for babies 0-13 months, as long as they sit within this age bracket, your little one is never going to be too young or old to start the programme. Baby Sensory is wonderful opportunity to introduce them to a rich variety of sensory experiences regardless of what stage of development they’re at!
What if I'm unable to attend a session?
We understand that ‘life’ happens, especially with little ones, and therefore offer several options to make up a missed session. These ‘make-up’ classes must be completed within the same term, as we are unable to carry ‘make-up’ classes over to the following term or apply credit to a new term booking.
The below options are available for make-up classes:
- You can arrange to attend the same class during the week on another day.
- You can arrange to make-up your missed class any point throughout the term (doesn't have to be the same week).
- You can gift your session to someone who also has a bub so they can enjoy the magic of Baby Sensory in your place.
- Or, space permitting, you can invite a friend and their baby to join you in one of your sessions during the term.
We will always try to accommodate your requested time/day, pending availability for that session.
You can view the full make up policy on the website. To schedule a ‘make-up’ session, please contact bayside-qld@babysensory.com
