The lessons are engaging and age-appropriate, and parents participate alongside their children, making each class a special learning experience together.

Now that my oldest is in preschool, my heart aches at having to step away from this beautiful program. Over the years, we've taken music classes, met the most magical musical educators, joined sensory and art classes with truly fabulous teachers, celebrated both in-studio and at-home birthday parties, and spent countless afternoons at concerts in the park. When a friend first told me about these classes three years ago--about this amazing music class in a Santa Monica park with Mr. Bradley--I had no idea how deeply LoveBug and Mr. Bradley would become woven into our lives. My kids walk around the house clutching their stuffed LoveBug, yelling "oh LoveBug!" and can't fall asleep without him. We sing the songs, do the dances, and have created so many core memories I'll treasure forever. If you're even considering signing up for LoveBug & Me, don't hesitate--join. Your kids will thank you.

We're now at the end of our second session and I hope we can continue for years to come. Siree is masterful in how she interacts with children. She's warm, sincere, and easily shifts gears to adapt to what children and babies need in the moment. She's so perceptive and she remembers each and every child from the moment they walk into her class. In addition to being knowledgeable about child development, she really knows about music and does a fantastic job of explaining the reasoning behind the methodologies of Music Together and how our children experience music. There is plenty of street parking available and if you miss a class, make-up classes are easy. I highly recommend Music Together in Beverly Hills!

The classes are 45 minutes and there is an option for baby or mixed aged classes. Each session is 10 weeks and meets once a week. The session focuses on a specific instrument such as flute, sticks, banjo, etc. You get to take a cd or download the songs from the class onto your phone via the app and your kids can listen in the car to get more familiar with the songs. In class she brings out instruments for the kids to play with such as drums and shakers. My son gets excited every time we go to class. I highly recommend music class here .

I was not aware that there was a Yelp page or else I would've left my review sooner. I really wanted my son who just rurned to learn to play the piano and he also was eager to learn and it is so hard to find a teacher that knows how to work well with kids who move a lot and are a little more impatient than others. Mrs. Sirarpi is absolutely amazing with kids she is both stern and kind at the same time. She put so much dedication and care into the kids and even puts on recitals for the kids to be a part of which is such an excellent thing for them to be and I highly highly recommend sound of music school they also do violin not only piano which I just found out about.

Do not hesitate to schedule a walk through at Great Beginnings, you won't regret it. Let's get into…read morethe details. Campus: Neat and tidy at the start of each day. They have a cleaning crew arrive at closing daily to assure nothing is out of place (that's how you can gauge your lateness lol). It is the same crew each time, which I love for child safety. New toys and equipment are brought in often and old ones are retired to keep the place looking and smelling fresh. Play: There are two main playgrounds that seem to cater to different ages, but every class rotates between both. Each one provides enough shade and sitting area for the kids to free play and interact with their teachers. One of my favorite features is the collection of tricycles. When your child first starts, they have no idea how to pedal and within six months they are chasing the big kids on the track. The garden: Our favorite gathering place. Over the past year the school director has expanded it tremendously and now there is fresh fruit and veggies that the children are brought out to tend to and occasionally they are able to snack on them. There are a few times a year that parents are encouraged to supplement the garden with new seeds and fresh dirt. It really feels like a community garden because everyone contributes. Staff: The school director truly does an excellent job screening her staff. Each one is genuinely happy to greet your child as they arrive and while personalities differ, they each worked with integrity and respect towards the children. Ms Nina, Ms Maria, Ms Alma, and Ms Jeanne. I never once felt at odds with the staff or teachers due to such excellent communication. If my child so much as received a scratch, there was a note in her lunchbox specifying the event. Designated helpers for special-needs children were able to focus on their child specifically, while integrating the entire setting to the best of their ability. I did not notice any purposeful separation of the children unless it was necessary. Tools: Providing the teachers with the necessary tools for success was a shared value for all who participated. Thanks to the director Ms Tina, each classroom is fit with their own age-appropriate toys, dress up areas and reading nooks. Monthly calendars determined the weekly theme and any extra materials are happily donated by the parents. Not required but fun. They focus on education according to the schedule which is great because as communication skills are gained, you can ask your child specifically about the artworks they did that day because you already know what it was. It also allows you to dress your child accordingly, say if they were having a paint day. Potty training: If you start in the class for two-year-olds, chances are yours is not fully potty trained yet. I never once encountered a diaper rash or had any reason to be concerned about the system in place. You provide the materials and they are generally not shared unless it's an emergency. The benefit of having a dedicated soldier taking your child to the toilet every two hours really sped up the process and it helps for you to continue the schedule when you get home. Mine was trained within the first three months . Later, there are rules and boundaries around bathroom use, encouraging the kids to be independent and respect each other's privacy. Always monitored. Food: You have the option to provide lunch from home or receive the hot lunch (made fresh in house) for a small fee. Meal schedules are on rotation and pizza fridays are common. Don't forget to pack a separate morning and an afternoon snack if you provide on your own. At one point, I was putting everything in the same box and my little one was eating almost all her food in the beginning of the day. A simple piece of fruit or a couple crackers will do. The school encourages children to drink water only, which they refill with the Britta throughout the day to keep them hydrated. Cutting my baby off of milk was one of the most difficult parts, but I'm so glad now that I can control the amount of sugar by limiting it to our home. Cons: Parking! There are certain times of the day when three spots just won't do. After I learned which times were heavily trafficked, we arrange drop off to avoid the frustration. Parking in the red is always easier if you have a passenger to stay behind otherwise you risk getting a ticket especially on Wednesdays and Thursdays when the trash gets picked up. Final thoughts: A+++ school for preschool aged children. I have had three over the course of 20 years and this was by far the most loving environment. We have experienced. Goodbye GB family! If for some crazy reason, I have another baby, I will be back!

Great Beginnings Preschool was an incredible influence on my son's early childhood education and we…read moreare more than happy to continue telling people how amazing this school is and how we highly recommend it to all families. I am writing this review as someone who has a doctorate in early childhood music education from USC Thornton School and have had a lot of experience in early childhood education as a music educator. They really do things right here and to get the best out of the school's experience, I recommend parents to be proactive with the teachers and director, knowing what they need and how to best support them so they can best support our children. The teachers are always doing their best and they do it from a place of tenderness and care. We were very proactive in this community and it made a huge difference in our son's experience here. This place is special in that it's not a "daycare," it is a place for fostering and nurturing learning not just your basic ABC's and 123's, but most importantly social and emotional care. My son has learned to follow the school and classroom rules, to be kind to others, to learn how to be a good friend, and to share kindly. When my son was in the Two's class, the teacher worked with us with helping him to be fully potty trained (following through with washing hands properly) and we rarely, very rarely had accidents. We all know that potty accidents can happen and in our entire time of 2 years (we started August 2024) at this school, we can count on less than one hand the number of accidents our son had at the school. That's a huge success. When my son was in the Three's class, he learned to write his name and the ABCs and numbers, count to 20, create so many amazing arts and crafts that we have on display around our house, care for a garden, and so many songs and dance moves with the music and dance teachers. Things that we will miss about this school: the student performances as those were truly one of the greatest highlights of our experience there. The organized school monthly calendars that give you the weekly and daily breakdown of what the kids are learning and working on, school activities, the lunch menu, and any and all important information. We will miss the teachers for their tender care, love, and attention that goes beyond the ABC's and 123's. They bring so much creative fun into our children's learning experiences and they show you in the Remind app. We will miss Ms. Martina's amazing cooking and the wonderful talks we had together. Ms. Martina is filled with a lot of wisdom and experience and she can offer a lot of helpful insights if you are open to it. They really pay attention to the children individually and what is best for each child to thrive in the best way possible. We will miss you all so much, really and truly. Great Beginnings Preschool is truly a good and safe place not just for the children but for the parents too, knowing that our children are in the most nurturing and caring hands in early childhood education. As someone who had a not so great experience at a previous daycare school, this school helped put our son on the right path for success academically, emotionally, and socially. Thank you to all the teachers and Ms. Martina and Ms. Lana, for all you do for our children.

This class is a great bonding experience and a way for parents to know how to play musically with their children! I LOVED this program!! The music is great as are the materials you are given to enjoy long after the class ends.
