My introduction to Hartbeeps was when my daughter, Florence, was about to turn one and I took her to a local class. It was the first structured class I'd been to with her so I wasn't sure what to expect.
From the first sprinkle of Hartbeeps magic, we were both hooked. We attended classes religiously and when, 18 months later, the opportunity arose for me to start a franchise of my own, I jumped at the chance. I have been on a magical journey as a Hartbeeps franchisee ever since.
Hartbeeps is unique. It is so special to watch children and their grown-ups interact is such a joyful, playful way. The combination of multi-sensory activities, music and song, pretend play and crazy colourful puppets is one that you don't see at any other classes. It is just addictive!
I would love to see you at one of my classes, so please do get in touch. Come and make some marvellous, magical, musical memories with Hartbeeps.

Ashleigh has been part of the Hartbeeps team since 2022. Her background is mainly in animal care, but she classes herself as a Hartbeeps superfan!
"I started coming to Hartbeeps when my daughter Ava was just 5 weeks old. I remember how daunting it was coming into a new environment, especially as a single mother I felt lonely and a bit lost. I loved Hartbeeps straight away. Not only did it boost my confidence, and Ava's too, I have made some lovely friends though attending classes. I'm so excited to be part of the Team, running classes at Durrington and Bognor, and watching all your lovely babies grow."
Samantha has been part of the Team since 2022 and adores running classes. When she's not taking Hartbeepers on magical journeys, Samantha manages a preschool room in a local nursery, and teaches ballet and tap to children in her own dance school.
Samantha says, "Hartbeeps was the first group I attended with my daughter Olivia when she was just 5 weeks old, and we continued our Hartbeeps journey right up until she started school. The thing that drew me to Hartbeeps was the support people gave one-another in class, and how inclusive the group was. I loved watching the children's imagination come alive as they stepped into the magical world. I am looking forward to meeting you all soon as we take a journey and spread some cheer through music, dance, role play, and multi sensory experiences."
Becky, who is teacher specialising in drama and special education, has been attending Hartbeeps classes for the last six years with her daughter, Ellie, and, in more recent times, son Oscar. After a number of years of leading our Hartbeeps Adventures nursery offer, Becky is now branching out running sessions in SEN settings, as well as doing birthday parties.
Becky says, "Hartbeeps has been something so unique and wonderful for my children and I. Watching how engaged the babies and toddlers are, seeing how they love learning through the sensory experiences and then how imaginations start to grow and develop is amazing. I'm so excited to be starting the next part of my Hartbeeps journey."
Kelly is one of the newest team members and is super excited to be bringing the magic of Hartbeeps to Horsham.
“I love the adventure and creativity of the classes and seeing how much the children (and adults) enjoy attending, a fun supportive community. The interactivity of the sessions are a massive buzz and I particularly enjoy seeing how everyone gets excited about songs and activities. Best of all your child is learning and developing, all while having fun - the power of play is truly amazing!”
