Our little guy has been going here since he was 5 months old. He was skeptical at first but now he LOVES it! All the teachers are great and they are so nice about letting us bring grandparents etc when they are in town (grandparents eat this stuff up!).We haven’t done a baby rave yet, but it’s on our list!

I just want to give Mr. Nick a big shout out! I have been coming with my 7 month old and it has been such a wonderful time with her. It really is the highlight to our week. To watch her light up when being apart of such an inviting and upbeat atmosphere keeps me wanting to come back. Mr. Nick is an incredible musician. He knows how to bring all the parents and babies together with his songs, style and rhythm. My only hope is to have this on the weekends for when I have to go back to work!! Super grateful for this gem for families needing that community engagement for their little ones.

We love Mr. Dave’s Music! We’ve had class with Mr. Nick and Mr. Dave - they’re both wonderful music teachers. Our 2 year old loves this class.

Mr. Dave and his team is incredible! Our son has been attending Mr. Dave’s music classes for a couple years now. He is a natural with all the little ones, creates a fun and safe environment and the class is upbeat and fun for all. The class has a nice mix of original tunes, classic songs, different musical instruments, stuffed animal appearances and bubbles!A great option if you want to have your little one get some interaction with other children and be exposed to the world of music!He also does events held at restaurants/bars that are tons of fun too (they sell out fast).Highly recommend.

Mr. Dave Music is nanny approved! Today, I took my nanny baby (11mo) to Baby Beats with Mr Dave. It is the most fun we have had all week. For those hesitant about the seemingly steep cost of $30 for 30 minutes, please realize the attention span of children is quite short and this kind of social and individual enrichment isn’t really readily available elsewhere (at ANY cost).From introducing children to avant-garde (for children) and interesting instruments like the djembe, rainstick, and thunder tube, to bringing out an incredibly lifelike puppet of Bamboo the Panda Bear for everyone to pet, Mr Dave excels at engaging children. He speaks and sings in a comfortable, concise, and compassionate way.He hands instruments directly to each child and sings the clean up song we all know and sing to our kids as they put away the instruments.If I had to describe the musical stylings, I would say sort of They Might Be Giants but a little less silly and a little more focused!At Mr. Dave Music, they do their best to make every person feel very welcome in the space. It is clear he and the other staff members (I met Dre and Anne (spelling?)) care for the children with whom they work; the positivity was abundant!Though I did not think I could have more praise for this establishment, on the way out, their speakers coincidentally played our favorite song to dance to on the way out — so there’s some extra points for good taste.I highly recommend Mr Dave Music.

Such a warm friendly and comfortable place to bring your toddler or baby. Only had classes with Mr. Nick so far, he is fantastic with young children. Conveniently located, they are very flexible with scheduling, and competitive prices when you book a multi-week session. Run by the sweetest people, and very bright and cheerful.

Fantastic! We easily had the youngest child at this mornings class; that could have been an issue. Mr. Dave made sure we felt included and had sensory objects for our 5 month old. Beautiful space, great staff and wonderful overall vibe. Thank you Mr. Dave for opening in our neighborhood; we look forward to many years of music and learning with you!

Beautiful place, great owners, and my daughters (2 and 3 years old) loved it. I can't wait to host a party there.
