Tots Play Cardiff North

Tots Play Cardiff North Award Winning, fun and interactive developmental play classes suitable from birth to 2.5 years old! Hi! I'd love to have you along to class soon! Kate xx

My name's Kate and I've been running Tots Play Cardiff North since September 2014. My Award Winning classes are so much fun, while giving your little ones a developmental boost! We have a great mix of activities in each session - Baby & Toddler Yoga, Sign Language, Music & Movement, Instruments, Baby Massage, Story Massage, Bubbles, Sensory Play and loads more! All designed to intrigue, stimulate and encourage your little one to develop their senses through play! We have three different classes, suitable from Birth to 2.5 years old.:
Baby Development (Birth to 6 months old)
Discovery Tots (8-12 weeks to active crawling)
Social Tots (crawling to 2.5 years)

All of my sessions are very friendly and welcoming! We help to support Parents and Carers to build friendships at classes. Awards:
Tots Play Franchisee Star of the Year 2022
Highly Commended Franchise of the Year 2021 - Wales Children's Activities and Services Awards
Baby & Toddler Class of the Year 2020 - Wales Children's Activities and Services Awards
Best for Baby in Cardiff - Hoop 2019
Best Class 0-2 Year Olds in Cardiff - Mums in The Know 2015


While we get back to normal after the last 2 years, we still have safety measures in place at my classes, such as lots of natural ventilation with the windows open in our classroom, extra cleaning and more. In Feb 2021, I set up the Petition to ask Welsh Government for a date for the return of face to face Baby & Toddler Play classes in Wales. I worked alongside other Class Providers in Wales to push as hard as we could. Our Petition led to a mention at the Senedd from Plaid Cymru MS Bethan Sayed, being mentioned by LBC at the Welsh Government briefing on Monday 8th March 2021, being on Global radio twice, BBC Wales Today twice, BBC Online twice, Wales Online, ITV Wales came to film at my outdoor classes in April 2021 and The Children's Commissioner for Wales' Senior Team was so concerned about our issue when I contacted them that they met with Welsh Government Officials in April 2021 to ask them if we could reopen indoors sooner. A whirlwind of a campaign, but all the hard work was so worth it to bring the issue of Parents and their Babies and Toddlers in Wales needing much more support that Welsh Government were providing as we started to unlock in 2021. Please check out the fab reviews on my page from my lovely grown ups! Thank you & please pop me a PM if you have any questions at all or would like any more info!

😵‍💫I was so tired on Saturday, I went a bit wobbly at Daddy & Me classes!! It was definitely a very busy & crazy week last week!!

Absolutely loved seeing everyone on Saturday!! Thank you for coming!!
We have a hard core of regular Daddies who come nearly every single month and I really appreciate you all! 🙌

Also a lovely mix of new to class Dads come each month too, it’s always fab to welcome new Dads & your Tots in!!

📆 Next month’s Daddy & Me classes are Saturday 7th March and we’ll be at my new home Caerleon Child Care in our new amazing space & with free entry to Jump soft play!! Open invites after both classes to go through to Jump together, with its cafe and toddler & baby play areas!

🥰 After spending over half of my youngest daughter’s life coming and helping Mummy work at the Club, my girls said goodbye on Saturday 🧡

A special mention to Phil who, when I started running my classes at the Club in Sept 2020 on being able to reopen them in Covid times (I had to find a new venue then too as my usual venues wouldn’t reopen), used to have my girls helping him ‘organise’ stacks of playmobil while I ran outdoor classes in the Clubs garden!

And a big thank you to Liam, who was so supportive of me starting my Daddy & Me classes at the Club in October 2024 when he was Manager there 🫶

We roll onwards Daddies, I hope you all love our new home!! I can’t wait to see you all next month!

🩷 Cwtch Baby Bank Donations delivery! 🩷

Wow! Today’s donations drop off was a whole boot full & half the back seat of newborn clothes, towels, blankets & nappies!! 🙌
A massive thank you so much for all your donations at classes this last few weeks!!

😞 Cwtch are busier than ever, with over 40 referrals to complete each month, which is massively up in the last year or so.
They pack everything a newborn baby needs with love into moses baskets and baby baths for familes in need in the local area 🫶

➡️ Despite all the amazing recent donations, they are still in DESPERATE need of NEWBORN baby clothes & HOODED BABY TOWELS.

➡️ I can also take donations of Mum & Baby toiletries (shampoo, soap, toothpaste etc), clothes from tiny baby to 0-3 months, baby sleeping bags 0-6 months, both open or new packets of disposable baby nappies & baby blankets.

If you have any of these that are good quality, clean & non stained to donate…

🧡 If you currently come to my classes, please bring them to your class & I’ll drop them down in one go! I’m limited in my storage space at my home so I can only take items from my list 🥰

🧡 If you don’t currently come to my classes, drop off to Cwtch at their unit in Taffs Well can be arranged by emailing Clare at cwtchbabybank@gmail.com. They are run entirely by volunteers and open at different times so drop off needs to be arranged before you go 🥰

🥰 They also have an Amazon wish list in case anyone can help in that way!

Thank you all so much for your kindness, really proud to support CWTCH Baby Bank South Wales reg Charity no 1166744 (I’ve been collecting class donations since early 2023!) with you all and the amazing work they do xx

🤔 Wednesday classes anyone?

It’s been a while since I ran classes on Wednesdays…nearly 10 years in fact! I used to run on Wednesday afternoons as my eldest daughter was in private nursery then & so I had a later pick up time for her than now with the school run!
After I had my second daughter Wednesday was my day off with her 🥰 & once she went to school and after Covid times with the homeschooling it turned into my clean my house and do my Tots Play admin day

➡️ BUT I’m thinking about bringing back Wednesday classes if there’s enough demand!

😍 I’ve already had lots of interest from my lovely Baby Development families who graduate my Course next week! Thank you all so much! 😘

✅ Would anyone else be interested in a 11.20am Discovery Tots class (12 weeks to crawling)? Potentially building up to a 10.25am Social Tots class (crawling to 2.5 years)?
Please let me know in the comments!

📆 I’ve also set up a waiting list for this on my Class Schedule link on my bio!
Classes will be in the Llanishen area 🥰

Let me know what you think!!
Thank you!

I’ve absolutely loved being based at Llanishen Rugby Club for the last 5 and a half years but it’s time to look for a new home and start the next chapter…

I’ve been running my classes for eleven and a half years now & in my 30s I travelled round to different venues every week dragging alllll my kit with me, but being based in one place has just made running classes a lot easier in that way!
I’m still like a travelling circus as there’s not enough storage space for me there to keep everything, but it really helps me!
I do keep our class Baby Bank donations at my house too, but I’m totally happy to keep doing this 🥰 it’s so worth it!

📆 I have a meeting this week I’m tentatively excited about, but I’m keeping quiet in case it doesn’t come to anything but 🤞🤞

My dream is to stay within the Llanishen Community, where I’ve been since the start (but I’m licensed for classes in CF14 & CF23 postcodes), and I’m looking for somewhere that gets the work I do for our local baby & toddler family community, that offers a safe & clean space to play, where there’s good coffee shop facilities nearby for my families to buy a coffee and cake from after class together & where there’s access to a car park or decent street parking that won’t cause locals a problem.

I’ve tried most of the existing community hire spaces over the last few months with no luck - it’s either a no, they’re booked on the days I need or I get no reply 😞

It’s always been my dream to lease my very own space. I’m now looking into this seriously.
I’d support other local small businesses who need a high quality space to run their groups & classes by offering it for hire on the days I’m not running my classes. I’ve already had interest in this!
I’ve an amazing cleaner friend who’d keep it sparkling for all of us ✨

So, if anyone knows anyone with an extra room in their business premises that they’d like to hire out to me (I can give amazing references from my two long term hires because I’m super reliable), if anyone knows of a reasonably priced unit to lease that would be suitable for us or if anyone can help me with grants available or in any way I’d be super appreciative!

Thank you!
