Her Guide

In this episode of Her Guide, we're joined by Jeremy Thompson, co-owner of Baby Sensory Gold Coast. For more than a decade, Jeremy and his wife Tania have been creating meaningful experiences for young families through their weekly Baby Sensory and Toddler Sense classes. These thoughtfully designed sessions are backed by decades of research and provide a rich mix of music, movement, and sensory play - all aimed at supporting early brain development. We chat with Jeremy about the power of sensory play, how their classes help babies thrive, and the beautiful impact their work has had on local families. Whether you're a new parent, a curious caregiver, or simply interested in early childhood development, this is a conversation for you.
