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.

Materials include two take-home books, instrument, and streaming of music, online books, and activities.
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.
Hi! My name is April Keelin. | have been in love with music since I was a little girl. At 7 years old, I started piano lessons, and when I was in 5th grade, I started playing the flute. L had continued those all through college. In high school, I became really interested in vocal music. ! was in many choirs, and decided to also take vocal lessons. In college, I was a vocal music education major with a piano minor and graduated in 1993. I started teaching music in the public school system in the fall of 1995. I went on to get my Masters degree in Music Education. in 1999. After many years, I decided to continue my education and get my National Boards in Early Childhood Music in 2020. Other endeavors include leading worship in Grayson, Kentucky; piano, flute and keyboard player at a church in Ashland, KY, giving piano lessons; and teaching Kindermusik for a couple of years in the Ashland, KY area before getting my National Boards Music is my passion and has been my life's work.
