UNITED KINGDOM / AGILITYPR.NEWS / December 10, 2025 / Baby Sensory & Toddler Sense Barnet is preparing for a major milestone as franchise owner Vicky Hughes announces the opening of a brand-new, purpose-designed WOW Centre in Arkley, Barnet. The centre will officially open its doors in January 2026, marking an exciting new chapter for local families seeking high-quality developmental classes for babies and toddlers.

The move comes as Vicky celebrates her sixth anniversary running Baby Sensory classes this December and recently marked three years of Toddler Sense. For years she has dreamed of finding a permanent home in Barnet - and after a long search, the ideal location has finally been secured.

Her current centre in Potters Bar has served hundreds of families over the last three-and-a-half years, but the limitations of the older, smaller building prompted the decision to relocate. The new venue in Arkley (EN5 3LD) offers a modern, spacious and fully equipped environment that meets all the high standards of WOW World Group’s award-winning programmes.

The new, bigger WOW Centre will allow Vicky to create a richer, more immersive learning environment, with space to display and rotate an even wider array of sensory and physical-development equipment. Safety and comfort remain front and centre, with secure entry, a large free car park, and a nearby bus stop.

The site will feature dedicated baby changing facilities, baby-weighing scales, and a generous storage area to keep all classes running smoothly. A small kitchen will help elevate party packages, allowing families to serve food and refreshments during celebrations.

There will also be a designated space for local businesses and community partners, including photographers, ceramic keepsake creators, weaning specialists, first aid trainers, and others - providing families with a wider range of expert-led services under one roof.

Speaking about the move, Vicky said, “Finding a permanent venue in Barnet has taken me six years, so securing this new WOW Centre feels incredibly special. Barnet is where the heart of my business has always been, and I’m thrilled to finally offer families the kind of space they deserve - bigger, brighter, and truly built around their needs. I can’t wait to welcome everyone through the doors in January and begin this next chapter together!”

Classes for Baby Sensory and Toddler Sense will launch in the first week of January 2026, with booking information to be released soon.
