Friendly people, not worth it experience
Friendly and talented people, but not worth it. Can do the same thing at home. Especially not for a 1 year old. The sessions are very short, and it’s a lot of just watching the teacher play music and sing. By the time you drive there, get the kids out, go in, sit, pack up leave etc. It’s a whole ordeal for not much value at all.

Hi EA, thank you for your kind words about our team, and for taking the time to share your experience.
You're absolutely right that many of the songs and activities in our classes are ones you can continue at home — and that's entirely by design! As you would have experienced, we also include percussion instruments, props, puppets and dancing in every class. Our classes are built to give parents and carers a rich repertoire of music, movement, and rhymes to weave into daily life with their little one. The class is really just the beginning.
What makes Mini Maestros different from singing at home, though, is the social learning environment. At this age, babies and toddlers absorb a great deal simply by watching other children and carers around them — they join in when they are developmentally ready, and that peer exposure is something that simply can't be replicated at home.
Our program is also carefully sequential. Our babies and young toddler classes are specifically designed to build an appreciation for music through unconscious learning activities, while also giving the primary carer the confidence to share music with their child at home. Every activity has been chosen with your child's developmental goals in mind — nothing is incidental. This foundation quietly builds the neural pathways that support language, listening, and emotional development, so that as children move into our toddler and preschool classes, the learning that was happening beneath the surface starts to become beautifully visible.
For our 1-year-olds, watching and listening is the learning. At this stage, young children absorb an enormous amount simply by being immersed in a rich musical environment with their carer close by. What looks like "just watching" is actually quite active from a developmental perspective!
We hear you on the logistics of getting out the door with a little one — it's no small feat! When we called to follow up on your trial classes, you'd said our venue was too far from where you live and it was too difficult for you to continue. We recognise that it is important to find a class that is simple to get to and fits around your little one's sleep schedule.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you'd like to chat further. 🎶🐝💕 Mini Maestros
Beautiful staff
The staff were very friendly and engaging. I felt that the experience could have been enhanced with a more engaging setting. It was great to go to to help your baby socialise and become confident around others. The songs, props, music, instruments and dance made the experience educational and fun!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Danielle! We're so glad you and your little one enjoyed the songs, props, music, instruments, and dancing — those are the heart of every Mini Maestros class. 🎶
We do keep our learning spaces intentionally calm and uncluttered, as young children focus and engage best without too many visual distractions around them — meaning more attention on the music, the teacher, and each other! We hope to see you back in class soon.

My granddaughter loves it

Thank you Lorena. My enthusiasm comes from having passion and a love of music, and passing on that passion to little ones, hoping it can bring lots of joy and learning for a good start in early childhood education. 🎶 🐝💕 Michelle
Brilliant time for the whole family
Just O'Neill is so lovely and engaging and my daughter has such a fun time, and loves singing the songs together when we're at home too. Judy has also been so kind inviting us to make up lessons when my daughter has been sick and unable to attend. We love Mini Maestros!

Beautiful music classes
Kylie genuinely loves what she does and makes every child (and parent) feel so welcome. She is a wonderful musician and my boy (and me) just loves the classes. The admin side of things has also been so easy and smooth 🙂

Thanks you for your kind review Emily.
Great to see you coming back with your second child, as you value what our program has to offer. We also strive on helping parents work along side the children in class to ensure you get the most from our activities. This also encourages you to engage on a music level so you can continue the fun learning at home. Looking forward to lots of music making with your family. 🎶 🐝💕 Michelle

It is so important that we meet all the children at their level and motivation on the day they come to music so everyone is included and has a great class.
See you in the 4-5s class! 🎶 🐝💕 Lisa Templestowe/Doncaster
