Our Programmes
Music with Me is a carefully designed early years music programme that supports children’s development from as young as 6 weeks old right through to starting school.
Created to nurture confidence, creativity, communication and connection, our classes use music, movement, sensory play, storytelling, and rhythm to provide children with a fun and engaging learning experience at every stage of their early years journey.
The programme is divided into three age-specific stages; Babies, Toddlers, and Pre-Schoolers, with each stage thoughtfully designed to support children’s developmental needs in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework.
Through original songs, traditional favourites, instruments, Makaton signing, sensory exploration, and interactive activities, children develop essential skills including:
-
Communication and language
-
Social confidence
-
Listening and concentration
-
Rhythm and musicality
-
Coordination and motor skills
-
Creativity and imagination
At Music with Me, we believe children learn best when they feel safe, supported, and encouraged. That’s why every class follows a familiar structure with gentle repetition, helping little ones build confidence and thrive in a warm, welcoming environment.
Our small class sizes ensure every child receives individual attention and support, while also creating opportunities for friendships and meaningful connections for both children and grown-ups alike.
More than just a music class, Music with Me is a joyful and nurturing experience that helps children grow in confidence, develop a lifelong love of music, and create special memories along the way.
Babies
Our Babies classes are the very first stage of the Music with Me programme — the perfect introduction to the magical world of music for your little one.
Designed especially for babies from as young as 6 weeks up to confident walkers (around 15 months), these gentle, nurturing sessions encourage early development through music, movement, sensory play, and bonding time with you.
During each class, your baby will explore music through singing, rhythm, and a variety of age-appropriate instruments including shakers, tiny drums, and claves. We also introduce simple Makaton signing alongside a wonderful range of sensory experiences such as scarves, bubbles, lights, teddies, and more.
Our carefully written programme uses repetition and familiar routines to help babies feel safe, secure, and confident. We use the same hello and goodbye songs each week, while introducing exciting new themes and songs every term. This predictable structure supports your baby’s understanding, memory, and emotional development.
Even at this very early stage, your baby is developing:
-
Communication and language skills
-
Fine and gross motor skills
-
Social confidence
-
Listening and concentration
-
Emotional bonding and connection
Classes run weekly during term time, last 30 minutes, and are kept intentionally small, with no more than 15 babies per session. This allows every child to receive the attention, support, and encouragement they need in a warm and welcoming environment.
Toddlers
Toddlers is the second stage of the Music with Me programme, created especially for children aged approximately 15 months to 3 years.
At this exciting stage, sessions become more interactive and are carefully designed to support your child’s development in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework.
Each term introduces a brand-new learning theme — from 'Colours' and 'On the Farm' to 'Under the Sea' and beyond — with specially written songs, engaging activities, instruments, movement, and sensory experiences to match.
Alongside our original Music with Me songs, we also include familiar traditional favourites that children and grown-ups love to sing together.
Our Toddler sessions are designed to encourage:
-
Communication and language development
-
Rhythm and musical awareness
-
Social confidence and interaction
-
Coordination and movement
-
Early signing and listening skills
-
Creativity and imagination
Classes are held weekly during term time, last 30 minutes, and take place in small, friendly groups where both children and grown-ups can build friendships and feel part of a supportive community.
Keeping our classes small allows each class leader to give your child the individual encouragement and attention they need to thrive, learn, and grow with confidence.
Pre-Schoolers
Pre-Schoolers is the third and final stage of the Music with Me programme, specially created for children aged 3 to 5 years.
These engaging 45-minute sessions build on the confidence, musicality, and friendships developed throughout the earlier stages of the programme, while continuing to support your child’s development in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework.
Each term centres around a different story or theme, inspiring children to sing, move, imagine, create and learn through music in a fun and meaningful way. Our sessions help children develop deeper musical understanding whilst also nurturing confidence, independence, communication and social skills.
We maintain a familiar class structure from the Toddler stage, as children thrive with routine and consistency. At this stage, class leaders gently encourage children to express themselves independently within a safe and supportive small-group environment.
Pre-Schooler classes are attended independently, helping children prepare for school and develop confidence away from their grown-up. Parents remain nearby during sessions, and every transition is handled gradually, gently and with plenty of nurture to ensure children feel happy, secure and supported.
By this stage, children truly flourish — building confidence, friendships, creativity, and a lifelong love of music in a caring and encouraging environment.
It’s a very special final chapter of the Music with Me journey.
