Hello my name is Kirstie and I run Hartbeeps classes to the North Herts area including Stevenage and Knebworth. I first found Hartbeeps through my NCT friends who loved the classes and got very excited about it each week.

I went along to see what it was all about and fell in love with Hartbeeps it was like going to the best West End show for babies!! It takes the children on a journey through their imagination enabling them to reenact everyday role play through props and dress up.

The music is so unique and very catchy adults and children alike will be singing along on their way home. This special time with your child will bring you lasting memories that you can treasure forever. We hope your child can grow with Hartbeeps through Babybells (0-6 months sitting up), Babybeeps (6months- crawling) and Happy House (toddling children)

My background has always been to put a smile on the faces of children through my various roles. I used to work at the BBC where I coordinated parties and events for the children's costume characters such as Bob the Builder and Fifi and the Flowertots. Bringing to life their heroes was wonderful to see. I have two little girls who love exploring and love adventuring into the magical world of Hartbeeps.

We'd love to have you along so please do let me know if you'd like to come to one of our classes! Please keep checking the website or contact me for more details and I'll keep you updated as we add new classes and new areas!

Hi I am Danielle a new Hartbeeps Imaginator for Stevenage and Knebworth!

I came to Hartbeeps 3 whole years ago now, not as the lady at front of the class, but as a new mum, a tired, trying to get my head around my new life mum. (Who knew it could take over an hour just to get out the house despite being fully dressed when you have a little one!)

My little girl loved the classes so much and quite quickly developed favourite songs (listening ears, which had to be sung in and out of class) and favourite puppet, Dexter Cat of course!

Hartbeeps became so much more than 'just a class' for both of us.

With an extensive background in Performing Arts, including a BA Hons in Theatre with Performing Arts, plus Theatre in Education, stage and film experience, I found myself thinking "I would love to do this and bring other mums the experience I have had with my daughter." And well... Here we are!

I look forward to seeing you and your little ones in April for lots of Hartbeeps fun and adventures!

Hi everyone, my name is Tori. I started my Hartbeeps journey 8 years ago when I took my daughter to the classes run by Kirstie. A few years later I joined in the fun once again with my son. When he grew too old for it, both of us were so sad to leave we had to practically prise our fingers from the doorframe, but who knew that just 3 years later I would be joining Hartbeeps again. Only this time it’s from the other side! I’ve relearned the songs, become reacquainted with Dexter, Rolf and all the other fluffy friends, and I can’t wait to meet all the new little faces for fun and magic sprinkles every week. See you soon!

Thank you so much for yesterday, we loved it, first baby class we have had due to Covid... so we were very apprehensive but you were both amazing and we loved it.. thanks Parent, Andy - Sutton
WE LOVE HARTBEEPS! You keep each classes inventive ... Well done for making such fun classes! It takes a lot of extra effort and it doesn’t go unappreciated xx Hartbeeps is our favourite class! The value for money is unbelievable – you get so many props, loads of original songs, different themes. If you can go to one class make sure it’s Hartbeeps, I’ve tried the others and this is the best. Parent, Jennifer
My daughter (and I) absolutely love coming to Hartbeeps. Every class has the loveliest atmosphere and each week the different themes and props are sooo engaging.... Our Imaginator really goes above and beyond to make it as fun and special as possible.. We’re so glad to be booked up again next term. Parent, Samantha – Epsom, Worcester Park, New Maldon
I’ve been to a few different sensory baby classes but Hartbeeps is just on another level. There’s a familiar rhythm to each class perfectly coupled with a creative theme and the props are just amazing and so unique. Parent, Laura - Epsom, Worcester Park, New Maldon
Hartbeeps is the most exciting and original class I have taken my little one to. I have tried many different classes and none offer the variety, development opportunities and stimulation that Hartbeeps does. Parent, Kim - St Albans
We have just started our Hartbeeps journey and we absolutely love it. The baby massage has been brilliant, we use it at home and our Imaginator always sends us the moves she showed us in the class. I love the yoga as well, there are always offers alternative moves for younger babies, which often sends Alfie into a lovely little snooze. It’s so calming. This class is not only for baby, but it really is for us Mums too. It gets you out the house, building confidence being out with your baby and gets you connected with other Mums. Parent, Kara - Market Harborough & South Leicestershire
We had a Hartbeeps dinosaur party for our 4-year-old and it’s safe to say our son and lots of his friends had the best time. The Imaginator engaged all the children, bringing so much engagement it was fab to watch. Parent, Victoria - Market Harborough & South Leicestershire
I have attended Baby Beeps classes for two terms with my daughter and we love it so much I booked Hartbeeps for her 1st birthday. Sara, our Imaginator was fantastic as always and the children and parents thoroughly enjoyed it. Will deffo book again in the future. Thankyou x Parent, Melissa - Market Harborough & South Leicestershire
A FANTASTIC learning opportunity for all and the best bit is the children are learning new and exciting things through play and having fun. The songs are so catchy, we sing them all week long! Parent
