Which babyballet class should I book

Our preschool dance syllabus has been carefully designed to ensure each child is taught the principles of ballet and tap at the right developmental level while boosting confidence, and of course having lots of fun.

Our programme fits well within the UK Government’s Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, with our classes providing the opportunity for babies and young children to learn and develop key life skills in a healthy and safe environment.

When signing your child up for a three-week trial, you will need to ensure they are within the age parameters outlined for each stage. If in doubt, please start in the lower age group to begin with as your teacher will liaise with you should your child need to move up a stage.

After registering, you will be sent an enrolment email full of information that will let you know what to expect. Please allow up to 48 hours to receive this email and double check your junk or spam folder!

Becoming a babyballet member

Following the introductory trial, you will receive an email containing all the details you need to continue with our classes and become a babyballet member. Along with term dates and information about how to make future payments to secure your place, you will be sent an invoice for the remaining weeks in the current term plus your one-off babyballet joining fee. Your little star will receive a Welcome Pack filled with fun and benefits for both you and them to enjoy.

Our fees are £9.00 per class for babyballet tots, tinies, movers and groovers, payable in half term blocks in advance. There is no need to sign up via the website again.

Meet the franchisee

Miss Jessie – Franchisee

jessie babyballet dartford

Hi, I’m Miss Jessie, franchisee for babyballet Dartford, Bexley, Bromley, and most-importantly Mum to my two wonderful sons, Rex and Arty.

I started dancing at the age of 3 and went on to train professionally at Arts Ed, London, where I gained my Diploma in Musical Theatre, later converting this to a BA Hons Degree in Performance Studies through City University.
I worked as a dancer and show girl across the UK and internationally before turning to teaching when I opened my babyballet franchise in January 2009..

As an Autism Mum I am hugely passionate about ensuring an inclusive environment at babyballet where all children feel welcomed and happy. I believe that every child should have the opportunity to dance with us and this led to the initiation and development of the babyballet Shine programme, our SEND-exclusive class.

In 2022 I was named ‘Star Performer’ and overall ‘Franchisee of the Year’ at the British Franchise Association Awards and in 2023 I went on to win ‘Franchisee of the Year’ at the European Franchise Federation Awards in Brussels.

I am so incredibly proud of my fantastic team of teachers who go above and beyond every day to ensure our little stars have the best time at their babyballet classes.
