Jade with baby—connection and joy in nature

Our Story

Tiny Whirlwinds began when founder Jade McDonough, a new mum from Farnham, noticed a gap in her community. Like many new parents, Jade found herself searching for ways to support her baby's development while navigating the early months of motherhood. As she began exploring early years development to help her little boy learn, grow and thrive, a passion quickly took root.

She envisioned classes that were more than just entertainment; thoughtfully designed sessions that gently support infant development while creating meaningful moments for parents and babies together. By bringing together music and movement, dance and rhythm, immersive light shows, tactile and messy-safe sensory play, storytelling and calm bonding time, Tiny Whirlwinds was born.

Today, Tiny Whirlwinds welcomes families to its immersive sensory studio in Farnham, offering a warm and welcoming space where little ones can explore, discover and grow through carefully curated sensory experiences.

At Tiny Whirlwinds, we believe every baby deserves a magical start to their learning journey and every parent deserves support, confidence and a sense of community along the way.
