Testimonials

"My daughter walks around the house holding her children’s mop like a ukelele & strums on it, emulating you :) it’s adorable. She really loves your ukekeke playing."   ~ Narween O. (Parent)

Thank you for being our music teacher, bringing the power of music to our preschool!   We appreciate your researched approach to teaching us, and that you take seriously the joy of playing, singing, dancing, listening, attuning... And none of that would work well unless you had the deep expertise in educating very young children. We love you!!  ~ Laila T.  (Director - Untitled Preschool, Santa Monica)

"​Karen’s teaching filled my son with a sense of wonder and sparked a true delight and interest in music.  Her joy is infectious.  I will be forever grateful for the magic she brought to my son’s early years. Thank you, Karen!"  ~ Sarah M. (Parent)

"Karen is huge role model for me.  I've learned so much from the way she interacts with children.  She lights up the room with her music and engages children with her soothing voice, joyful tunes and ukulele.  Karen is such a nurturing soul who brings people together through her love of music.”

​Your professionalism and dedication is always so evident in every area. Your passion working with children and parents is something I’ve been pursuing as an early childhood educator.

Wren is the most patient, loving, and talented music teacher I have ever known.  She introduces all types of instruments and props to the students.. She caters each lesson to the children's age-appropriate level. The children have an absolute BLAST when they attend her class and they become truly immersed in her magical world of music. ~Kimberly O. (Director, Sherman Oaks Lutheran Children’s Center)

Thank you, Wren, for all that you do.  You are so wonderful and loved!

– Elke M. (Director Kigala Preschool Santa Monica)

​The toddler years can be aggravating, isolating and counterintuitive. Luckily we met Wren just as our daughter turned 2, and she shepherded us through this developmental stage. She advised on how we could allow space for our daughter to nurture a sense of independence and curiosity, while we could maintain a sense of sanity and lightness.   At Parent & Me classes, Wren created a safe space for parents to connect and talk about the challenges of raising kids, ask questions, and always share a good laugh about the day-to-day mishaps. She gave us all great advice. On top of all that, she plays the ukulele and sings songs with the parents and children. What more could you ask for?  
~Samantha L..  (Parent, LVNS, West Los Angeles)

Parent and Me with Wren has been the most enjoyable resource to our family since our son became a toddler.  We’ve tried 3 different mommy+me-type classes and Wren’s is hands-down the most fun and helpful. 
The advice she has given us has helped so much and feels so aligned with my personal belief of respectful parenting. 
~ Samantha S. (Parent Little Village Nursery School, West Los Angeles)
