Lucy is the proud owner of Gymboree Play & Music Kensington.
I originally trained as an actress and graduated with a BA Honours Degree in Performing Arts from Bath Spa University. I worked as a Gymboree Play & Music teacher part time and progressed to the manager of the Cheam branch.
Following a few years away working abroad for Thomas Cook and as a children's presenter at Butlins in Bognor Regis, I always knew one day I wanted to start my own Gymboree Play & Music.
Kensington opened it's doors in January 2020 so with a slow start Lucy and her team are now excited to be growing the business, we welcome members old and new to our Gymboree Play & Music family.
I am an Italian trained music teacher with Origami passion who has been living in London since 2013.
I've been working for long time with children and adults and I've always thought (and I still think it!) that if we, adults, looked at this world with the little ones eyes and lived our lives as the little ones do, we would be living in a better place and in a better way.
Music, little ones, play: Three keywords for me, Gymboree Play & Music simply put them all together and I didn't even finish to read the job advertisement when I applied for the Gymboree Play & Music Kensington teacher position...
I just clicked on the button "apply now"...and here I am, happy to be at Gymboree Play & Music Kensington !
Ross is a Canadian born actor and puppeteer living and working in London for over 30 years. He has worked extensively in theatre film and television as an actor all his life. His most prominent credits are Dr. Who, Game of Thrones, Bear Behaving Badly and The Numberjacks.
He works as a volunteer for children's charity Scene and Heard which specialises in imagination development and self esteem boosting for children in the Somerstown area of Camden. He is both honoured and excited to join the Gymboree team.

My experience at Gymboree has been and continues to be a positive one. It is a welcoming, creative and lovely school. I feel blessed that I am able to have my kids here. They experience incredible opportunities in a small school environment and the entire community is a special place!
The best class in town! We love it so much and couldn’t find the same in uk
Gymboree offered my little one an ever-changing indoor playground to help him develop both physical and social skills. I highly recommend each of the classes from crawlers to explorers. At each stage of a child's development, the environment is reconfigured to suit their growing needs. The staff were particularly flexible at allowing us to try various stages whenever we felt our little one was ready to progress. Absolutely love Gymboree.
We were visiting London, and we were worried about the lack of movement for our 10 months son. We signed up to the gym in Kensington and with the help of Barbara and Cinzia our son could move so much and have so much fun doing it!
Gymboree Kensington (Barbara and the team) recently concluded on a 'Messy Play' five-week course, which our one-year daughter loved, along with her nanny. Both had so much fun! Getting to be 'messy' and play with lots of textures was really great and we hope the course runs again in the near future. Thanks so much for all your help!

Both of my children (3.5 years and 11 months) go to Gymboree Play & Music and love it. My toddler goes to their drop-off Lego class which she raves about. It's very creative, working not only on Lego skills but also painting, drawing etc. My infant son loves his Gymboree Play & Music Crawlers class - particularly loves crawling all over their props, through the tunnels, etc. Great way to get the infant crawling over obstacles! Gymboree Play & Music is part of our weekly schedule for both kids and we look forward to participating every week. Invaluable!
Gymboree Play & Music was a lovely and positive experience for my son Leo. We started when he was 9 months and he is now 3 years old, I wish we had started sooner.
He loves the songs (which is part of our daily singing at home), the freedom to explore and he was happy there. He looks forward to class every week and once class is over he will tell everyone about Gymbo and what he did.
For me, I liked that it taught him how to get down safely from a height, how to learn to use his body, and touching on different topics every 2 weeks. It gave me confidence in other environments to trust that he has the ability that he learned from Gymboree Play & Music and to trust him.
I’ve been taking both my newborn and toddler to Gymboree Play & Music for a couple of months now and both boys are really loving the classes and open gym sessions. It’s a great way to meet other mums, entertain toddlers at witching hour(!) and get ideas for sensory play with babies. Sophie and Cat are fantastic and have so much energy and loads of different ideas for the classes, plus make sure the activities it’s help children meet their development milestones as well. Highly recommend this if you’re thinking about joining!! Thanks so much Sophie, Cat and the wider team :-)
