Hi, I’m Alice – the heart behind Bloom Toddler Classes Manchester West!
I’m a proud mum to my beautiful daughter Arabella, and the owner of Bloom Toddler Classes covering Tyldesley, Worsley, Monton, Swinton, Little Hulton, and Irlam. I know first-hand just how powerful these classes can be not just for your little ones, but for you too.
My journey with Bloom began just like many of yours…as a parent. When Arabella was a baby, we joined Bloom Baby Classes and absolutely loved it. As we grew, we moved into the Toddler Classes and found something really special: a space where we both belonged. As a young mum, I struggled to make new friends after losing some old ones. Bloom gave me that community I was missing. No judgement, just support, friendship, and joy. Arabella and I made friendships that we still cherish today, and I knew I wanted to create that same safe, inclusive space for other parents and toddlers.
Before running Bloom classes, I worked locally as a qualified Baby and Pre-School teacher, so some of you may already know me! It was my first job after having a baby, and I loved every moment of it. It was such a joy helping little ones grow confident in the water, and seeing their giggles and splashes reminded me how much learning can (and should!) be fun. I built such strong bonds with both the children and their families. Alongside this, I also worked as a one-to-one teaching assistant in early years, supporting children in their first steps of learning. That hands-on experience has shaped the way I run my toddler sensory classes now, with warmth, patience, and play at the heart of everything.
When the opportunity to run Bloom Toddler Classes came up, I jumped in without hesitation, and it truly was the best decision I’ve ever made. My mission is to make every class feel welcoming, joyful, and inclusive, no matter your background, parenting style, or story. Whether you’re dancing with your toddler, making new friends, or just enjoying a moment to breathe, here’s a place for you here.
Our Bloom Toddler Classes are not only fun and engaging, but they’re also carefully designed to support your child’s development in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) guidelines. Through music, movement, sensory play, and social interaction, we help build key skills like communication, physical coordination, independence, and confidence, all essential foundations for starting school. Every activity has a purpose behind the play, helping your little one grow, learn, and thrive in a supportive and exciting environment.
When I’m not running classes, you’ll find me spending time with my family and friends, exploring the outdoors, caring for my horses, or baking something sweet.
I can’t wait to meet you and your little one soon. Let’s make memories together!

As part of our continued effort to support parents and post natal wellbeing we have created the Rainbow Parachute Project.
When booking onto a Bloom Toddler Class class you will be asked if you are able to round up your total basket to the nearest pound or add a little more if you are able to.
All money raised will go to post natal mental health charities across the UK, providing life saving telephone support and in person support groups where parents can share their experiences and get professional support from trained mental health specialists.
What Our customers say
I attend weekly with my niece. Each morning we are greeted with a hello and a beaming smile, everything is also done in makaton which is simply fantastic. I hardly get any decent pictures apart from the back of her head because Dhmara holds her attention for the whole session. You’ll find us there singing, joining in the activities or getting down dancing with our maracas! Dhmara has such high energy throughout and speaks to the children individually as well as a group and is always at their level. I couldn’t recommend this group enough!
Hayley Seddon
I have been taking my daughter to Bloom ever since she was 4 months old and she loved it and this helped her develop different skills. She absolutely loved Dhmara from the beginning. We are over the moon that we can continue with bloom moving forward at Bloom Toddler and having Dhmara leading the class. I couldn’t recommend this class enough
