Business Review

"The best music school ever!"
- Yuliia, Merit parent

"Class has definitely helped my child’s gross motor skills. She was pretty quiet before and now she’s running and dancing all over the place. It’s something she looks forward to every week.”
- Lauren, Merit parent

"Our little ones LOVE LOVE LOVE this class and look forward to it all week."
- Joe, Merit parent

"Music has been shown in studies to help in the development of young minds, and we have seen it firsthand. Our teacher is great at incorporating not just different types of music, but also baby sign language and basic developmental skills." 
- Jessica, Merit parent
