Recurring Class

Did you know sound recognition begins in the womb? Foundations classes are all about exploring and reacting to new sounds, objects, and movements. Plus, parents and caregivers heighten connections with their babies by learning bonding techniques.

Kindermusik Foundations

The Foundations class is so much more than lullabies and swaying. We teach families how sound exploration, listening activities, and dances help babies communicate, stimulate eye-tracking skills, and learn to move and coordinate new muscles.

 
  • Movement Control
    Different movement activities help babies strengthen their core muscles, which increases their sense of balance and control over movements.
  • Social Adaptability
    Group activities allow babies to experience familiar and unfamiliar social experiences in a safe and secure way.
  • Listening and Communication Skills
    Listening to music and doing vocal play exercises helps develop a baby’s back-and-forth communication skills.
  • Language and Literacy Development
    Introducing spoken sounds and rhythms through songs and rhymes helps support language and literacy development.

Classes are held in Nicole''s air-conditioned studio at her home in Brinsmead. All other classes are run by Nicole Tobin (B.Com., Dip.

Kindermusik International has awarded her Maestro status and she is one of the few Kindermusik educators to offer the full Kindermusik program from Village through to Kindermusik for the Young Child.

Studio Policy

Kindermusik with Nicole welcomes you to our studio. I believe the woods would be very silent if the only birds to sing there were the ones that sang the best! There is a nonrefundable deposit of $100 when enrolling. This is to pay for home materials, that once opened, I cannot return. However, if I am contacted two weeks before classes begin, this is negotiable. Kindermusik classes are music AND movement. The majority of children LOVE my classes. However, for the more timid, please allow six weeks of consecutive attendance for your child to settle. If you have attended for six weeks consecutively, and you are still not happy, a prorated refund may be negotiated.
