Sainsbury "Active Fit" Promotion

We are currently participating in this promotion. If one child pays full price, another child can get a free class by producing a Sainsbury "Active Fit" voucher.

To introduce myself:

Hello, my name is Stella and I run the Jo Jingles franchise covering Worcester and Droitwich. I first started Jo Jingles in June 2003 as a Class Teacher and in September 2005, the opportunity arose to take over the Worcester/Droitwich Jo Jingles franchise. I am now one of the 100 Jo Jingles franchisees in the UK and Ireland.

Visit my class's page to find a class to suit you and your child.

Our aim is to encourage the physical, mental, and emotional development of every child and to also give them their first structured and fun introduction to music. We also give every child attending classes the chance to play age specific musical instruments.

We also run sessions in Nurseries, Special Needs and School Settings, Surestart Groups and Holiday Schemes.

My Background:

Since a young age, I have always enjoyed music and I have been playing cello since the age of 6 years. I belonged to my school orchestra and local choir and throughout my education participated in a variety of schools music festivals. My father plays violin and my 2 older sisters also play musical instruments at home (Violin and Piano) so my love of music started at an early age with my family.

Before my 2 little boys were born, now aged 12 and 11, I worked in retail management. My eldest son was born with special needs and it is incredible to see how music actually helps with his global development. His speech and listening skills, as well as physical co-ordination have really improved since Jo Jingles has come into his life. He remembers a lot of the words, actions and rhythm from the Jo Jingles music that we constantly play at home. I also believe music has a calming effect on his ever challenging behaviour at home as well. My youngest son is a member of the choir and both of my 2 boys enjoy singing at home. I truly believe the influence of music in the early years plays a major part in a child's overall development - physically, mentally, socially and emotionally as in my own case, this has all been demonstrated in my youngest sons excellent achievements in all areas both in school and outside school so far.

Jo Jingles gives me the flexibility to work around my family and I thoroughly enjoy what I am doing. Recently, i have also joined a community choir in my local village as i enjoy singing as well in my spare time.

Working with children is a very rewarding job and it is inspirational to see how much a child’s development improves when they attend Jo Jingles from babies to toddlers before starting full-time school.
