Booking Information
Our Classes
Classes typically run in 10-week blocks, for a total cost of $200 inc. GST (based on 10 x 45min lessons at $20 p/class). If you join part way through a term, you will only pay for the remaining lessons in that term. For families with more than one child attending a class, a reduced rate is applied. This includes 50% off the second child or, where 3 children are present, buy 2, get one free. Please contact the class leader for more information.
Payment Options
Payment can be made by card credit card at the time of booking, or by bank transfer.
If you wish to pay via bank transfer, banking details will be provided in your booking confirmation.
Please note, payment is required within 72 hours to confirm your booking. For transfers, please use your full name as the reference and email the payment receipt to bayside-qld@babysensory.com
Waitlist
Wanting to enrol but a class is full? Make sure you register on our waitlist as spaces can come up at any time. This will also mean you get notifications when new classes or terms are open.
What if I am 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 at another venue.
- You can arrange to make-up your missed class at another venue 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
What if my session is cancelled due to a staff member COVID-isolating?
If classes are cancelled due to a staff member having to isolate, make up classes will be offered online the first week of holidays. Please note this will only be offered if classes are cancelled due to staff shortages throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.

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 weeks)
- A trial pack of 3x classes ($60). Please note, trial classes will typically only be offered after a term has commenced, as full-term bookings will be offered priority of places in the first instance. If space is still available in your desired class/venue, it is at this time we will offer the option to book a trial pack.
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 multiples?
Yes! We offer a reduced rate of 50% off the second child or, where three children are present, ‘buy 2, get one free’. Please contact us for more information and bookings.
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!
