Lovely engaging classes, however I find the teachers raise their voices far more than needed, essentially shouting the songs and instructions. It is overwhelming for the adults and I think the children also. I think the kids would listen better if the teachers spoke more quietly. Otherwise a lovely and energetic experience for the kids.

My daughter and I have absolutely loved the gymboree classes. We have been to the crawler classes and now the walker classes and they have both been brilliant! The open gym is also a good space to enjoy without a teacher.

Where can I find your timetable?
Do adults participate in the classes or are they spectators
Adult Participation Parent-child interaction is the cornerstone of the Gymboree Play & Music programme, therefore please remember to: Listen to the class teacher for instructions. Encourage your child to join in with songs and dances and all other activities. Model the activities for your child.
If my toddler is enrolled in a class can I bring my baby along also?
Younger siblings must be in a carrier pouch/sling. This is so you can leave your arms free, keeping your older child safe, and allowing you to participate in the class. Older siblings cannot attend class with a younger sibling.
What are open gyms and how do they work?
45 minutes free play on our set up and access to our stripey bag props, with fun music and Gymboree friends. No teacher present in the room so grown-ups must stay and supervise their little ones during the session. Open gym is walk in only so no booking is required and only 13 children and 13 adults are allowed into the playroom at one time so if the playroom is full you would need to wait until a space becomes available.
• PAYG Open gym session (45mins)- £8 per session
What times are your open gym sessions?
Monday: 4pm
Tuesday: 4pm
Wednesday: 12.30pm, & 3pm, & 4pm
Thursday: 12.30pm & 4pm
Friday: 1pm & 4pm
Saturday: 9 am & 12pm
Can I do pay as you go?
• Teacher led class (45 mins) - £16 per class, booking will ONLY be confirmed with FULL payment. Strict cancellation policy, full refund for cancellation up to 48hrs prior the start of your class, NO REFUND for cancellation after 2hrs prior the start of your class
• Open gym session (45mins)- £8 per session
What do I need to bring with me?
• Grown-ups, please remember to bring a pair of socks with you to wear on the play floor. In the summer months we recommend keeping socks in your bag/buggy just in case you come in wearing sandals etc... or you can purchase socks from us for £1.
• We only provide changing table and wet wipes so you will need to bring your own nappies and spare clothes just in case.
How does membership work?
On a monthly basis and we do have flexible fun pass and pay as you go options, please email us for more information.
How do Fun Passes work?
This is a more flexible option, it’s a one-off purchase of a set number of classes or open gym sessions and it has 3 months validity from the date of purchase, please see all options available:
• 5 classes and 5 Open Gym session at £105
• 10 classes at £120

Reviews
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 :-)
