Can I trial a class?

We do offer a 3 week trial package for $84 from week 2 of each term.

Trials are subject to availability. Please note that your 3 week package does not guarantee a place in your class after your trial.

A full term enrolment is the only way to ensure you can continue the program and get the best benefits.

Do you offer make up classes?

We allow 2 make up classes per term. Make up classes must be taken within the current term and cannot be transferred or refunded.

Do two adults have to attend with twins?

Yes this is a requirement so that each child has the assistance needed to facilitate the program

Can I change classes?

We can change your class but this is subject to availability and not always possible. To change your child’s class please contact the office at balcatta@gymbaroo.com.au

Do I have to attend the same time and day each week?

Yes, you enrol for the same class each week.

Can I do a drop in (casual) class?

We only offer term enrolments (anytime during the term) or a 3 week trial package.

Can I do more than 1 class per week?

Yes, we apply a 10% discount to your second class.

Is there a sibling discount?

Yes, we apply a 10% discount for your second child.

I'm going away during the term. What do I do about the classes I can't attend?

We offer make up classes! Once you’re enrolled, you can cancel any classes you can’t attend ahead of time and book make up classes within the term. The class must be cancelled prior to the start time to be eligible for a make up class. Make ups cannot be transferred to future terms or different centres and are subject to availablility.

If you’re struggling to find a make up spot, please send us an email to balcatta@gymbaroo.com.au so we can help to book you in.

You also have weekly class videos and neurological information, so you’re still able to access the content from home, even if you can’t make it in centre!

Can I get a refund if I can no longer make the class?

We do not offer refunds. If the class time no longer works for you, please send as an email so we can move you into a different day/time which works for you. If it’s only a small number of classes you can’t attend, we can organise make up classes for you.

If your child is struggling to participate in the class, please give it time. It usually gives new children around 3 weeks to fully settle into the routine of the program and then they come to expect and love the different parts of the class, as they know what’s coming next!

For specific circumstances, such as an emergency trip or hospital stay, please contact us to discuss at balcatta@gymbaroo.com.au this must be organised via email prior to the class time.

Are we able to use our NDIS funding on GymbaROO classes?

If you are self funded, you are more than welcome to use your funding towards the classes. We have many physios and OTs recommending GymbaROO for the babies and toddlers they see.

Can I just try 1 class before committing to a term?

We offer a 3 week trial option at the beginning of the term, when class spaces are available. The 3 weeks gives you a good feel for the program, and allows your child time to settle into the new environment.

The trial does not guarantee your spot for the remainder of the term, so as soon as you know you’d like to continue on, make sure to book your spot!

My child is 1 year old and crawling. Which class should I enrol into?

The exercises and activities within each level are designed for specific developmental stages, rather than age. If your child is hands and knees crawling, you can enrol in a Wombat class.

If your child has had a good 3-4 months consolidation at hands and knees crawling, pulling up stepping around furniture, standing balanced and starting to take a step or two you can enrol in a Wombat/Penguin class.

Once they’re walking independently, we can move you to a Penguin class. It’s okay to do this mid-term! The exercises in the Wombat class will help your child get to the next stage in their development. Creeping and crawling are the best stages for your child’s development, so please don’t rush them to walk. They will love the Wombat activities!

My child is 8 months old and not crawling. Which class should I enrol into?

The exercises and activities within each level are designed for specific developmental stages, rather than age. If your child is not yet hands and knees crawling, you can enrol in a Platypus class. Once they’re crawling, we can move you to a Wombat class. It’s okay to do this mid-term! The exercises in the Platypus class will help your child get to the next stage in their development. Our teachers can give you exercises and ideas to help your baby build their muscle tone and readiness to crawl.

My baby is 6 weeks old is this too early to start my baby at GymbaROO?

We offer a Platypus Birth-4mths class.

In our Platypus classes, you will learn how to provide activities that help your baby to learn about themselves and the world around them, stimulating their brain to create the foundations for learning.

Gentle movement, music, massage, tummy time, baby games, dance all help you put the ‘natural’ back into your baby’s development.

Come along and see what we do at a GymbaROO BabyROO session. It’s a great place to meet other parents and to learn about your baby’s development. We explain to you the why, what and how’s of infant development and what you can do at home to assist your baby’s natural development.
