Learn more about the class:
What happens in a typical class?
This special event class is based on our Kindermusik Foundations program- an immersive, gentle, musical environment designed for babies and their grownups. The 45 minute class is rooted in our research-based curriculum crafted to nurture physical, social, emotional, language, and cognitive needs during your baby's fastest growing and first months of life. A typical class includes: - Musical social rituals and transitions, such as Hello and Goodbye songs, lap bounces, and simple games. - Guided infant massage and rhythmic movement to support healthy physical development and primitive reflex integration. - Simple dances and gross motor movement to support balance, spatial awareness, and joyful social interaction. - Infant-safe instrument exploration to enrich auditory processing, curiosity, coordination, and steady beat. - Sensory play that is safely in proportion to baby's developing nervous system. - Dedicated rocking and relaxation time for co-regulation practice. - Support for early communication and receptive language skills through signing, singing, rhyming, and repetition.
Is my baby too young for this class?
No. Music is a profound way to connect with your baby from the moment they arrive. Our class is designed to be gentle and immersive with many ways to participate in activities, tailored to your baby's developmental stage. It is absolutely fine if your baby sleeps during part or all of class. Music is still being processed in the brain and body during rest. You'll be learning songs, games, and musical routines to implement at home together all week long so that your experience and all of the benefits extend far beyond class time. You are welcome to feed your baby during class, change a diaper, and adjust activities. We encourage you to attune to your baby's needs as well as to your own. You and your baby are never a disruption or a distraction in class.
What are your health and safety protocols?
Our space and experience is designed with your family's safety and health in mind. We know babies explore the world with their senses. All instruments and props used in class are safety-tested and developmentally appropriate for infants. Items are cleaned, disinfected, and maintained between classes so your baby can safely mouth, touch, and explore. Our classrooms are shoe-free environments (barefeet and socks are welcome) giving your baby access to all the benefits of barefoot play while also ensuring that the space is clean and safe for floortime. Our community health agreement firmly requests that families stay home when children or adults are experiencing symptoms of contagious illness. We use HEPA filtration and increased ventilation practices to help prevent the spread of airborne illness.
How often does the class meet?
Autumn Lullabies: Baby's First Music Class is a 1-day only, special event on Saturday Nov. 21 at 11:20am. After the event class, you are welcome to enroll in our ongoing Saturday Foundations experience, but there is no obligation to continue.
"There is nothing I don't love about Pied Piper Studios...the friendly, always welcoming atmosphere, the care and love that each teacher expresses is beyond what I could have envisioned, the cleanliness, and the teaching opportunities constantly mixed in with fun... truly, I couldn't imagine a better place for my children to grow. And the fact that they are excited every time we pull into the parking lot tells me everything!"
