Choose Your Class

Baby Group

Perfect for little ones from birth to the walking stage.

Our Baby Group is a gentle, nurturing class full of music, sensory exploration and bonding time. You can dance with your baby, cuddle them close, let them relax and listen, or simply enjoy the music together.

Each week introduces a new theme, with songs, movement and sensory activities that support early development while creating special shared moments between you and your baby.

The class is relaxed and flexible, so you can follow your baby’s needs on the day. Sleepy snuggles, curious gazes, tiny wiggles and enthusiastic gurgles are all very welcome.

Toddler Group

For confident walkers through to approximately 4 years old.

Our Toddler Group is energetic, imaginative and full of musical adventure. Children explore movement, rhythm, storytelling and sensory play through a joyful mix of musical theatre, film and TV favourites, alongside much-loved nursery rhymes.

These sessions are designed to encourage creativity, confidence, social interaction and cognitive development in a fun and welcoming environment.

There is no pressure to perform. Some children leap in with jazz hands blazing. Others prefer to watch from a grown-up’s lap until they are ready. Both are absolutely fine. We meet children where they are, with plenty of music, warmth and wiggles.


What Makes West End Wigglers Special?

West End Wigglers brings professional West End experience into warm, friendly local classes for babies, toddlers and their grown-ups.

Each session combines the magic of musical theatre with sensory play, movement and storytelling, creating an engaging experience that captivates little ones while supporting their development.

  • Professional West End experience brought directly to your local community
  • Multi-sensory adventures combining music, movement, storytelling and sensory exploration
  • A varied musical mix including beloved musicals, films, TV shows and classic nursery rhymes
  • Themed weekly sessions to keep every class fresh, playful and engaging
  • Development-focused activities supporting creativity, social interaction and cognitive growth
  • A flexible approach that recognises every child develops at their own unique pace
  • A welcoming space for grown-ups too, because the adults deserve a bit of theatrical joy as well

What to Expect

Each class lasts approximately 45 minutes and follows a new theme every week.

You and your child will enjoy a musical adventure with songs, movement, props, sensory moments and gentle opportunities to join in. The sessions are structured enough to feel engaging, but relaxed enough to respond to the children in the room.

Activities may include singing, dancing, rhythm games, sensory exploration, imaginative play, storytelling and music from the wonderful worlds of theatre, film, TV and nursery rhyme classics.

It is playful, friendly and full of heart, with just the right amount of West End sparkle. Tiny jazz hands are optional, but always appreciated.

  • Babies from birth to the walking stage
  • Toddlers who are confident walkers up to approximately 4 years old
  • Parents, carers, grandparents and grown-ups who would like a joyful shared activity
  • Families looking for baby and toddler classes with music, movement, sensory play and imagination
  • Little ones who love to move, listen, explore, observe, wriggle or simply soak it all in
