Question re afternoon baby and toddler music class

[Kimmy1080]

Hi everyone

Your opinions would be very helpful. I have had a lot of requests from parents who attend Tippee Toes on a Monday morning to run an additional class. I currently only run one baby and toddler session on a Monday morning and this class is very busy. My only other available slot is 2pm on a Tuesday afternoon. Like the Monday morning session, once the 45 minute music session is finished, there will be a stay and play session with toys and you can stay any time up until 3.30pm.

Whether you come along to the class or not, in your opinion, is this a good or bad time for your little one? I am thinking that 2pm coincides with a lot of nap times so not sure it would work but not all children are the same!

I will put this question to my Monday morning class but a wider opinion would be great.

Many thanks

Kim

Something to do on a tuesday afternoon would be great as I don't know of anything else, but nearer three might be better as it would be a bit of a rush to squeeze in a nap and lunch

2 may be hard straight after lunch but would be interested in an afternoon slot

Thanks for the replies. I did think 2pm was too early but I'll ask at Monday session also.

Ditto on the timings. 3pm-4pm, or a 3.30pm start often seems to work well

Hi Kimmy I come to your class on Monday and have to agree with the other posts, 2pm is a bit early. My two usually sleep til around 2.30pm, so from 3ish onwards would be great. There's not a lot on in the afternoons, so this is great news if it goes ahead. x

what times are your existing ceramics cafe classes on mondays, please Kim? thanks

If we did a pm class it would need to finish by 3 so we could do school run

but naps don't finish till past 2

there are music sessions at 2.30>3.30 at soup dragon - are they successful?

hi Fushia, did you mean my baby bop sessions at Soup Dragon? they're actually on at 3:30 and have said to Kim that this time seems to work well for people as others have mentioned in posts above! I tried out a 2:30 class one day a week initially but had to cancel it due to lack of attendance and I think the earlier time was definitely a big contributing factor!

Hello @new mother

I run a baby and toddler session (under 4s) on a Monday morning at 10am to 10.45am.

I also run a baby only session (3 months to 12 months/walker) on a Thursday morning at 10am to 10.45am.

Both of the above sessions also have a play and stay session after the class which finishes at 11.30am.

Hope this helps.

Kim

no there was another class that was earlier, actually i8t might have been 2-3. did it once with the twins and then went right to school pick up which worked well except we hyad to miss nap. will try classes at that time when they are a bit older
