Our new group sessions at Heel & Toe are carefully crafted to give your child a warm, supportive space to learn, play, and grow.

Each group session is led by our experienced and highly qualified SEN teacher and supported by one of our physiotherapists. All sessions are designed for stage, not age, and celebrate every child’s unique strengths. Each session is themed and includes sensory rich activities, shared song and multi-modal storytelling.

Our groups are a safe, joyful environment where children feel understood and valued and where progress is built in through continuous assessment and adaptation.

While children explore and build confidence, parents and carers are welcomed into our caring community, offering connection, understanding, and support.

Each session concludes with an opportunity for play and for parents to have a cup of tea and a chat. Our groups are tailor made to provide a safe and supportive environment for all families.
