Hi! My name is Jen and I am the Founder and class leader of Sense of Calm,

I created Sense of Calm at the end of 2021, starting with our Pop-Up Sensory sessions, with the aim to enable parents and caregivers to bring their child to a calming experience that encourages bonding and connection, incorporating cognitive development and learning through sensory play. The Sensory tent, a soothing semi-enclosed sensory space, was designed to provide parents a welcoming, inclusive space to build social connections between caregivers, support new parents to feel connected to others, whilst building on their special bond with their child.

I have since gone on to qualify as a baby massage instructor, tummy time expert and developmental play practitioner to create fun and engaging range of classes that you and your little one will enjoy and benefit from.

When I was a new mum, sometimes I just needed a little bit of calm in my day. For that reason I created Pop-Up Sensory to help other parents find a fun daytime activity and (child permitting!) a little tranquillity for you both.

Now my little girl has grown out of the toddler phase and has started school but even now, as a parent, I see how calming spaces can have such benefit for young children's emotional wellbeing and coping mechanism to take forward to adulthood.
...and, importantly, as parents and care givers a little calm in our day slowing down the
constant on-the-go nature of raising a little one can be so beneficial.

I hope to see you at one of our classes soon!
