Sensory stimulation with Messy Senses

Since establishing Messy Senses Ltd in 2016, we have been delivering our inclusive sensory sessions to a huge variety of children, young people and adults across the East Midlands.

We have also trained parents, carers and practitioners all over the world to enhance their knowledge about the importance of sensory stimulation…

Our sessions are specifically designed to benefit all ages and abilities and are delivered within a safe and secure environment by our friendly and fully trained staff team.

We offer a full range of services, including mums & tots sessions, alternative provision within schools, intergenerational sessions for the elderly and world-wide training on the benefits of sensory interventions.

We also offer Primary Alternative Provision in our very own setting, based in South Wigston.

Hey, I’m Enya Eye. I love to explore through my sense of sight. My favourite thing to do in the whole wide world is to look through my magnifying glass at all things small!

What people say about us

Sarah FitzpatrickAssistant Headteacher, Children's Hospital School — Leicester Royal Infirmary
Louise plans and resources activities to suit our wide range of children's needs — we work with children aged 4–19, including mainstream and those with complex needs. Songs, sensory trays, arts and crafts and the very exciting parachute have all been welcomed with excitement. It has been wonderful to welcome Louise to the Hospital School and add a touch of sparkle to the wards.
Clare HillSENDCo, Parkland Primary School
The progress we have seen in the pupils who attend Louise's sessions is inspiring. Week by week their development is evident — not only in how they engage with sensory activities, but in their confidence, communication and emotional regulation. Louise is more than just a visitor in our school; she has become a vital part of our children's learning journey.
Nick BrettManaging Director, Invent Training
Louise has the ability to engage each individual in a different way. Her ability to manage different needs and present well-executed sensory play sessions is a unique gift that sets her apart from any other service or agency we have used. She has helped shape the education offer we can provide at Invent. Louise and Messy Senses are an amazing team.
