We suggest that you arrive promptly for your Session start time so that you can make the most of your Session.

Late bookings:

We do not accept late bookings for Movement and Mess as the class sessions block of five is pre-bookable only.

Supervision:

Children must be supervised at all times by their parent or carer and not left unattended. Staff are not responsible for supervision of any Child who attends the Session. Furthermore, we are not responsible for ensuring that the purported parent or guardian with the Child has actual authority or capacity to be accompanying the Child. It is the parent/carer’s responsibility to ensure that the Child attending is in good health and fit to attend. When using the Venue facilities, we ask that you are respectful of others.

The toys and equipment are designed for babies from birth up to 6 months. We cannot allow Children over the age of 6 months to attend.

In the case of any behaviour deemed antisocial or offensive by the staff from the parent or carer, we have the right to end the Customer’s Session with immediate effect and to have them leave the Venue.

Play activities delivered in these sessions are age appropriate for 9 - 36 months old children. Whilst you are welcome to bring a child/baby sibling who is pre-crawling we advise it is the responsibility of the caregiver to ensure the infant does not encounter a risk of any choking hazard or injury and the infant should be fully supervised at all times by their parent/caregiver.

 

The Messy Play activities are only suitable for 9m+ and the child participating must be able to sit independently. Any concerns over your child's suitability to participate in the play activities due to a medical condition should be discussed with their GP or specialist prior to attending.

It is the responsibility of parents or guardians to inform us of any known allergies their child may have and to check the materials used in our activities before allowing their child to participate. By allowing your child to engage in our messy play sessions, you acknowledge and accept that Sense of Calm is not liable for any allergic reactions that may occur.
