Hello

I run Music with Mummy in and around Newbury. The sessions run on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, I hope that you can join me for some of the amazing music session happening weekly in and around your area.

Here’s a little more about me…

Since I left my post as a Drama Teacher, there was something missing from my life. Joining a choir helped fulfil some of this, as I love to sing. But I still needed a place to be creative, to be active and work with children. Then I remembered my time with my two children at Music with Mummy. I took both Eli and Ava to Music with Mummy, and it soon became a highlight of our week.

It was a time to just be with my babies, not worry about chores or other responsibilities, but just delight in their smiles and curiosity. My son loved the noise he could make and the energy of the sessions. My daughter loved the singing and learning the actions, in fact she still remembers nearly all of them 6 years later!

I loved the most welcoming, safe and joyful atmosphere. I remember watching in awe as both children settled down for a cuddle at listening time and stayed still for a whole minute! I feel so lucky to be part of the team. I am really looking forward to this new adventure with you all.

Classes are a fun and friendly way for you and your child to go on a musical journey together. Whilst you can enjoy a relaxed and social environment your child will develop a range of skills. Using percussion instruments, action songs, musical games and concepts they will learn more about their world and experiences whilst also teaching listening skills. The music we use is drawn from a mix of traditional favourites and original songs specifically aimed to educate and delight your child every step of the way.

JOLLY BABIES encourages early social skills, bonding between baby and parent and early speech development. It also gives parents the opportunity to meet and make friends with other parents. Recommended age 0 – 15 months.

MUSIC WITH MUMMY (or daddy, granny or someone else important) is a structured programme of pre-school music education. With a new theme each half term it really is a continuous leaning journey for you little ones (and most importantly so much fun)! Recommended age 16 months – pre-school.

We currently run classes in Newbury on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Please check out the class timetable below and contact us via email, phone, or social media if you have any further question – We would love to welcome you and your little one(s) to class soon!
