Philosophy

Children learn best when they feel loved and nurtured. This fact is the core of the Sound Beginnings philosophy. Sound Beginnings provides the structure for natural play between a parent and his or her child. Taking us back to days before electronic stimulus, buttons and screens, Sound Beginnings gives the parents the tools to connect with their child on an intimate, playful level. These tools, both musical and literary, provide a solid framework for a child to learn, thrive and flourish.

Now, that’s a sound beginning.

Testimonials

“She’s a great teacher. I love her songs. My favorite thing is everything.” – Brynn, age 4.

“My daughter and I look forward to attending Sound Beginnings class with Ms. Bri each week. It’s a special chance to have one-on-one time together, and I love the preschool aspects of this curriculum. Brianna always makes class fun and is great at giving all the kids a chance to shine. “

—  Brynn’s Mom

“We have been going to Ms. Bri for Sound Beginnings for two years now! My daughter loves it so much! She asks to listen to her music class CD in the car every time we get in. We were originally doing classes in person but then COVID hit & we switched to virtual lessons. Ms. Bri did a great job with the transition from in person to virtual and the classes are still just as fun & interactive! Thanks Ms. Bri for being such a great teacher!”
— Tiffany
“My daughter took Miss Bri’s White Horses Sound Beginnings music class when she was 2 and loved it! My son is almost 2 now and will be starting her Brown Bears class this Fall (2024). I am a music teacher myself, and I can see how gifted Miss Bri is at blending high quality music instruction with an excellent understanding of babies and toddlers developmentally. She is also patient, kind, joyful, and organized. If you have a child ages 0 to 4, you should sign up!”
— Kirsten
“My 3-year-old son has been attending Sound Beginnings with Ms. Bri for over a year now. It is our favorite activity of the week! My infant daughter will also be joining later this year. Ms. Bri is very patient and intentional with the kids and meets them where they are in terms of attention span, independence, and comfort. Sound Beginnings was my son’s first experience in a group “instructional” setting with other children, and Ms. Bri encouraged him to participate independently when he seemed comfortable and otherwise encouraged him to participate with me, which helped him to stay happily engaged. I appreciate that she never pressured him to participate.It is overall just the most wholesome toddler activity and introduction to music. Throughout the week, my son requests to listen to the Sound Beginnings songs, which are available on the app. Even my husband, who doesn’t get the chance to take our son to the class often, hums the songs because we listen to them so often at home. I love that the class includes some classic nursery songs, some new ones, and some classical pieces. My son loves going to his music class with Ms. Bri :)”
