HAPPY BIRTHDAY, babyballet®! 🎉 19 years of ballet classes where everyone loves to dance 💗

At babyballet®, every child is valued and given the chance to shine. Take a look back at our earlier post as we celebrate 19 magical years. We’re thrilled to enter a new era of babyballet® and to continue showcasing the incredible diversity of our little stars. Stay tuned… exciting things are on the way!

19 years ago today, babyballet® was founded in Halifax, West Yorkshire, by Claire O’Connor. With a bag full of bears and a heart full of passion, she had a dream…

✨ “I wanted our children to experience something different. We created a magical world of dance filled with characters, colour, music, and fun—a world where every child is valued and gets the chance to shine.” ✨

Nearly two decades later, it’s incredible to see how babyballet® has grown into a global brand, teaching over 20,000 children each week.

🩷 19 years of fun
❤️ 19 years of inclusivity
🧡 19 years of imagination
💛 19 years of learning
💚 19 years of friendships
🩵 19 years of dancing
💙 19 years of the magical world of babyballet® 💜

Happy Birthday, babyballet®! Congratulations to Claire and every single person who has contributed to this dream🌈

My Story

My name is Miss Jessie and I run the babyballet Franchise in the Dartford, Bexley and Bromley area.

I started dancing at the age of 3 and went on to train professionally at the Arts Educational Schools in London. After a bad knee injury put a stop to my performing career I was lucky enough to find the babyballet franchise opportunity in 2009 whilst working at The Baby Show in Manchester. Fast forward almost ten years and I now run over 80 classes throughout the area and have a fantastic team of teachers.

My favourite part of babyballet is seeing the boys and girls develop not only their dancing skills but also their confidence. I am a Mum to two boys aged 5 and 2 which has enabled me to experience first hand what it feels like to see your child develop and enjoy their babyballet classes. I love being a babyballet Mummy just as much as running the school and my proudest moment was definitely seeing my eldest Son take part in our annual show!

babyballet has given me lots of wonderful opportunities and I’ve met some of the most fantastic people along the way and the best is yet to come as in 2019 we will be turning 10! Eeeekk!
