Welcome to BabyPlus. We are a baby and toddler group at Bessels Green Baptist Church, meeting on Thursday mornings during term time from 9:30am to 11.15 a.m.

We hope you feel safe and welcome here. We would like to explain a bit about how the group works.

We know with school runs, getting here a bit earlier is often helpful, so we open the doors at 9.30 but we might not be completely ready and you might be given a job!

The cost is £2/ family which includes all refreshments and crafts.

Prams can be stored in the lobby area.

Tea and freshly brewed coffee are available throughout the session, and we have a selection of snacks for children to choose from at the end. If your child would like a home brought snack during the session, we have a dedicated picnic table which keeps our children with allergies safe.

We know it can be daunting coming to a toddler group, but nearly all of our activities are table-based with both adult and child chairs, so hopefully it makes it easier to chat to other parents and carers whilst your little ones play! We have a large, enclosed baby area and mats and toys are regularly cleaned.

We offer a couple of crafts each week, reusing and recycling where we can! The activities will usually involve painting or gluing and often both. We also offer a variety of sensory/messy play including playdough, shaving foam, pasta , fabrics, water play in the summer etc. When we cook we'll endeavour to offer free from/vegan alternatives.

We have a large garden area that is nearly all Astroturf with a small amount of concrete. There are picnic benches, play houses, a climbing frame and unless it's going to pour down for the whole session, there will be a selection of ride-on toys too.

Toilets are close to the hall including an accessible loo.

A classroom with tables covered in newspapers and craft supplies, including candles with colorful holders. In the background, decorated toy houses and castles are arranged on a table, and the walls display holiday-themed decorations and artwork.

If you want to stay in touch with the group, join our Facebook group (BabyPlus@BGBC) or contact us below.

We hope to meet the needs of all age groups through the many activities that run here weekly.

We gather for worship on Sundays at 10am (with a crèche, Powerhouse for children and Going Live for young people).

Our church vision is:

‘Living like Jesus and sharing him with others as we seek first the Kingdom of God.’

Do have a look at our Vision and Values guide to find out more about who we are and what we do.

Why not come along and check us out and hopefully become a part of our “kingdom” adventure!
