These classes are just the sweetest thing. Every lesson with Koren is innovative and thoughtful with age-appropriate activities and expectations. Koren is a wealth of knowledge for caregivers and is much-loved by every kiddie. My daughter just beams with joy all class long and all day long after the class, forever singing the little songs to herself. What a happy little place!

My son Ethan started Toptots during the pandemic in 2021 and he made lots of friends. He enjoyed going to Toptots, with the help of Koren he has learnt a lot, enjoyed all the music and activities. He can count and knows his colors 😊

When Sam and I joined Koren at her awesome studio we had no idea what amazing fun and learning lay ahead of us. Going to our Top Tots sessions was a highlight of our week, and Koren went above and beyond to make the sessions interesting, stimulating and absolutely suitable for the little guys. When it was school holiday time and I had my older boy with me as well - Koren had no problem with him joining us and taking part, he loved spending the time with his brother and learning at the same time. Koren included him in each activity and he loved being part of the party (as he put it!) I regret not having the same classes with him - he would have loved it just as much as Sam did.

Once Sam went to school we stopped the sessions, but Koren still checked in on how we were doing and I referred everyone I knew with small humans to her! If you are looking for a great experience to bond with your little one while learning and developing, in a safe and supported environment - then look no further. Koren and the Randburg/Bryanston TopTots Studio is the place for you.

Koren is absolutely fantastic and LOVES what she does at TOP TOTS. My 2 year old daughter has been attending with a nanny since the start of 2023 and she enjoys every minute of it. The facilities are top notch and my daughter always comes home singing new songs and with lots of craft activities. There is a predictable routine to the class which is much needed for kids but also lots of time for free play in the playground. Our nanny has learnt so much about stages of development and has implemented lovely new play ideas as a result of being in the classes. It has been the perfect group for our girl before she starts preschool.

I reached out to Koren at the start of the year to find out if TopTots Bryanston would accept attendance as my daughter has special needs and is blind. Although my daughter may not be able to run and jump and see like the other kids, Koren was entirely welcoming, offered a trial day and we loved it from day 1! My daughter, up until recently, has not been able to attend school, and her introduction to TopTots allowed her to learn social skills, learn to focus on activities and be a part of something that she is excited about every week!

All of my daughter's therapists have noticed remarkable improvement on her social skills and vocabulary, she has also learned to be more adventurous about learning new things! Koren continues to support us by ensuring that even if the lesson of the day may be more visual, there is always something slightly different for my daughter which is more tactile. The learnings we take back weekly are then added to our list of fun things that can be done at home and my daughter has just been growing from strength to strength, she even likes to announce her own brag!

Koren's depth of knowledge about children's sensory needs has really helped us to fit in where we often found we have not in the past and I highly recommend anyone with a special needs child to visit TopTots Bryanston and see for yourself how wonderful it really is!

Toptots class helped my son, Liam improve on his social skills. Not only that but there has been massive improvement on his early learning and stimulation and I have seen Liams growth and development as a result of these classes. I would recommend this class for anyone has a child struggling with their social and communication skills. Koren is extremely patient and attentive to all kids and you can see she is passionate about children and helping them grow

Toptots Randburg has been such a fantastic experience. My two year old son and I went to classes with Koren. During covid, we also joined Koren’s online classes. She does dance, music, covers gross motor skill activities, arts & crafts and lots of fun educational activities. These are all targeted to your child’s specific age group. My son still sings all the songs from class and loves Koren!

Every week there are new exciting sensory activities which incorporate a wide variety of textures. The classes are fun & just great! Facilities are super clean and well maintained. The setup is fantastic and cater to each specific age group. The class sizes are small & allow for the kids to play whilst parents or grandparents can bond. We had lots of fun and my son learnt a lot. Looking forward to returning with my second son. Highly recommend Koren’s Randburg Toptots!

My two year old Raphael & I have been attending Toptots Randburg for almost a year now. And it has been the most amazing experience, we’ve made so many new friends & teacher Koren is simply the best!

She makes an amazing effort to engage the kids and develop them in a very individualised way. She is committed to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment and we’re very thankful to be a part of the Toptots family!

I met Tome at Top Tots for the first time in 2009 when I took my godchildren
- twins aged 6 months or so at the time. We loved it! It was something I could do with them while their mom was at work for a few hours a week. They loved it - and I could show their nanny what to do with them with Korens guidance for the days they were at home - different textures and learning fun.

Fast forward to 2016 when I had my own baby - we signed up as soon as we possibly could. Jude absolutely LOVED Tome and especially Koren with her colourful nails! As Jude was ready for school - Ezra and I joined ... the 4th time was more for ME to have some adult company and be around like minded MOMS.
FUN - SAFE - and just awesome memories!

AHHH we do miss Tome and Top Tots so much.
