Lil Bird Family Music, with teacher Nina Lakshmi, offers fun interactive music and movement classes for your 0 - 5yo children and their grown-ups. Family music classes are an amazing way for any member of the family (nannies too!) to spend time with their child. These immersive music classes are taught through playful games, Call-&-Response singing, simple instruments such as shakers, sticks, drums & scarves, dance, laughter, inclusion, and imagination. 


We also offer a diverse musical repertoire of children’s songs from around the world which include non-western keys, scales and rhythms. But most importantly we have fun! And together, build a community of music makers.

New Parents holding hands

Join us for an ongoing drop-in group with an accepting and friendly tone, recently expanded to include toddlers up until 3 years old.  Our group offers a safe and supportive environment conducive to sharing about topics such as emotional and physical recovery after birth, expectations surrounding being a parent, changes in lifestyle and in relationships, finding support and trusting caregivers, life balance and sleep, navigating medical care, child development, play and temperament, among other topics and issues.  This is a participant led group with a facilitator to support.

Our new location lends itself to toddler playtime in the Pavilion with toys and parent led activities.

Please suggest speakers and/or topics of interest.  Bring your baby—feel free to feed, change and let the baby talk or fuss.
