Please Note:
1. Breast-feeding, bottle feeding and diaper-changing during class are absolutely fine!
2. Class size is limited, and pre-registration online is required at least 2 hours before class.
3. Candid pictures of the class are sometimes taken and shared on our Mindful and Musical social media page. ****If you would prefer that you and/or your kids be kept out of all photographs, I am very happy to respect your wishes!! Please let me know your preferences at the START of class.**** It is my deepest wish that everybody feels comfortable and happy at Mindful and Musical!
4. We teach respect by respecting. For example: During introductions at the start of class, if a child prefers to not say their own name, that is OK! Their grown-up may say it for them. If a child is feeling shy and does not want to join the others in dancing, playing, singing or interacting and would rather observe from the safety of their grown-ups' arms, that is OK!! When a child is ready, they will join, and until then, they have every right to take their time and will never ever be pressured. (In other words: we always treat children how we would want to be treated!)

Health and Safety:
Families may choose to wear masks in order to prevent the spread of illnesses.
Hand sanitizer will be readily available to anyone who wishes to use it.
