Overview

Sounds of Love in Early Childhood is a 6-week research-based music therapy class to aid your baby’s growth and development. Through music and play activities, parents learn new ways to help their babies grow. This program is for ALL babies. For our families of NICU babies, it’s especially important. Parents and babies deserve a chance to “catch up” on some early building blocks of development and work on their future together. This class is led by board-certified music therapists with special training in NICU Music Therapy. We tailor the class to meet each child’s developmental needs. Participants also receive a weekly resource sheet, which includes a weekly featured song and bi-weekly sign language songs where we learn the signs together.
