Over 20 years ago, I saw my first Monkey Music class in London and was hooked. I wanted to be part of the troop and have never looked back. After busily teaching Monkey Music in the London area for 2 years, we brought Monkey Music to Kent.

Since 2003, with our very first classes in Pembury Village Hall and the Sevenoaks Leisure Centre and Bat & Ball Community Centre our classes have continued to grow welcoming hundreds of local families to join the musical fun and games.

Our classes are deliberately small and make full-use of the 30-minute sessions to captivate and educate, through structured, social, music-making. We use over 500 original and traditional songs, musical games and exciting movement ideas throughout the curriculum. Our specialist teachers are selected not only for their evident musical talent, but also for their natural ability to communicate with and entertain young children and their families.

And grown-ups love Monkey Music as much as the children! We welcome parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts and uncles, nannies and childminders. We know that many lasting friendships are formed at our classes. Special memories are made at Monkey Music, as parents share precious time with their baby, toddler or pre-schooler, watching them develop and grow in confidence. The way we teach at Monkey Music in this safe and structured environment helps to prepare children for starting nursery, kindergarten and school.

As teachers, we witness and share the milestones you and your little ones at each stage of development. It is an absolute privilege for us to share first claps, waves, steps and words. Monkey Music teaching truly is a unique and rewarding way of life.

I am incredibly lucky to have a wonderful team of dedicated and talented teachers who love Monkey Music as much as I do. Do pop onto our local website and click on “our team” to meet them.
