We absolutely loved our Tiny Talk classes with Nikki. The sessions are really lovely, friendly and lots of fun. My little boy loved the singing, the props and toys. Learning some of the key signs has been hugely beneficial in developing his communication. The time at the end of each session for the babies to play and for the grownups to enjoy a chat over a hot drink was always appreciated! Thank you Nikki for such fantastic classes, we have loved coming along.

We started TinyTalk with Nikki when my son was about 14 weeks old - I’d not been to many baby classes with my older child because of Covid, and I quickly realised I’d struck gold by signing up to TinyTalk. The classes themselves are interesting, informative, relaxed and so welcoming. I’ve loved learning something new alongside my baby, and seeing him develop and start using signs too has been incredible. The environment Nikki creates is wonderful - the opportunity to have a hot drink, sweet treat and a chat after class is lovely and enables parents/carers to actually make friends. She’s a fantastic class leader whose sessions are - quite rightly - extremely popular. Sign up if you can, you won’t regret it!

Nikki’s Tiny Talk class is the most amazing class we have been to (and there’s been a few!), it’s the most inviting and welcoming class from whenever you join, Nikki knew our names from the first day and the amount of names she has to remember that is just incredible to start but it makes you feel even more welcomed whilst putting them into a song too! The guide you get sent before you start is so helpful for those first class nerves as it covers every single question you could ever have. Classes are amazing value, they are so well priced and you get a drink and a biscuit included too, which is what every parent needs! Nikki doesn’t have any help and does everything herself whilst leading an amazing full class, full of interactive activities, dressing up, singing, dancing, playing and all while learning signs to teach your baby to communicate and link both signs to words and the sounds, and in an easy way to learn and remember. The certificates to celebrate first classes and milestones are so special and something we’ll treasure forever! You aren’t made to feel rushed or forced to take part or not able to talk, you can change or feed your baby easily too in the room. I feel like I could go on all day about how amazing Nikki’s class is! Our little girl is a hard one to make smile from strangers and from day one she is always happy to see Nikki and is always fixed on her for the whole class. Thank you Nikki for an amazing experience that we never want to stop!

We will miss our TinyTalk classes so much. It’s different to all the other baby classes - there is something really special about it. Nikki brings 100% every time, she creates an environment that is welcoming, fun and interesting, and you go home feeling happy. She genuinely cares about every child’s development, and the children are completely captivated by her. By the time we graduated the class, my son would shout “Nikki and Ted!” everytime we drove into the car park. You look around the class, and you see so many special memories being made between parent and child. It is one of the best things we’ve done together!

Nikki is a fantastic teacher - warm, enthusiastic and friendly. Tiny Talk is our absolute favourite class - not only have the signs my child has learned improved our communication, but the classes are thoroughly enjoyable and always have a great, inclusive atmosphere. I couldn’t recommend these classes more highly.

Nikki makes this class so special. We did the class for 18 months, and both my son and myself loved it! Nikki is amazing, very kind and thoughtful too. You are made to feel very welcome, she introduces everyone by name every week, and you get some chilled time at the end for a coffee and play which is just lovely. The class has a really nice feel to it. It’s really fun, singing and dancing, and really helps younger children be able to communicate and bring on their communication skills through speech and sign. I would highly recommend this class for all the above reasons. My son absolutely loved it. Thank you so much Nikki x

We had the best experience with Nikki. Tiny Talk is a special class but it takes a special person to lead it too. We were made to feel so welcome and comfortable and my little boy grew in confidence and picked up so many signs! It is so fun and such a great skill to learn with your baby and I would highly recommend this class to all parents

This is definitely one of the best baby classes I have been to with both of my kids. It has everything, singing, dancing, signing, play time afterwards and drink/snack for parents, which is a great way to also meet other parents. The signing is great as you feel your little one is really learning something, which helps with communication in the early months/years. My eldest really enjoyed all the signing and even though we stopped going many months ago, he still continues to do the signs and communicate with us more effectively. Nikki is very good and engaging and a great support in general, even on things non tiny talks related. Such a brilliant class that I have now returned with my second!

We have attended Tiny Talk for about 9 months now and we absolutely love it. We look forward to it every week! Nikki is wonderful, she is brilliant with all the babies and makes you feel very welcome and valued. Our little one is now signing many signs and it has also encouraged her a lot with her first words too. Her classes are highly recommended!
