Hi! I’m Aileen Glennon

Welcome to Jo Jingles classes in Falkirk, Stirling and Clackmannan

Hi there and welcome to Jo Jingles Stirling to Falkirk!

Almost 10 years ago I took my first child to a Jo Jingles class in Aberdeen during my maternity leave from my job as a primary school teacher. As a first time parent and having only lived in the city for a short period, I was keen to 'get out', meet other parents and ensure my little one had social experiences.

I must admit I turned up at the first class a bit nervous and had no idea what to expect but I loved it and so did my daughter! We were made to feel so welcom...

Hi there and welcome to Jo Jingles Stirling to Falkirk!

Almost 10 years ago I took my first child to a Jo Jingles class in Aberdeen during my maternity leave from my job as a primary school teacher. As a first time parent and having only lived in the city for a short period, I was keen to 'get out', meet other parents and ensure my little one had social experiences.

I must admit I turned up at the first class a bit nervous and had no idea what to expect but I loved it and so did my daughter! We were made to feel so welcome by the class teacher and the other parents and grandparents and had great fun singing and dancing and playing instruments each week. The teacher in me also saw the huge benefits of the weekly classes, so much so that when we moved back to Falkirk I joined the local Jo Jingles class straightaway.

During my maternity leave I had many conversations with my husband about potentially running a franchise, the benefits of attending these classes - for the adults and the children, as well as having the flexibility of working around a young family. The idea was put on hold due to a move abroad with my husband's job, another baby and a pandemic but fast forward to August 2022 and here I am!

I'm using my teaching experience (laterally in the Early Years Sector) to plan and deliver weekly, themed, age-appropriate lessons that are fun and engaging for children. I love seeing the small steps of progress that the children gain week to week and the joy that this brings to the parents (or grandparents)!

He is extremely friendly and actively participates in all of our classes. At the start of each session he welcomes all children with a smile, a wave and a cuddle. Then he might sing or dance or pretend to be a train driver, a monkey or even a teapot.

Sometimes he hides and we have to look for him. Sometimes he falls asleep and he needs some help to wake up. Sometimes he is shy and we have to encourage him to join in with the fun. But he always makes time for plenty of hugs and kisses when it’s time for the children to say goodbye.

Thank you for the last 6+ years of jingling. The girls have loved it very much. Their love of music continues to grow. We found it challenging when we first moved here but Jo allowed us to make lifelong friends and our love of music has grown.

We can’t believe the time has come where you will no longer be part of our weekly routine. Jo Jingles has been so much fun for our boys and I believe that your enthusiasm has contributed to their love and appreciation of music – that’s all we ever wanted 8 years ago when we first enrolled. To see them both signing along to songs on the radio or tapping a beat fills me with joy. Thank you for nurturing them.

I've been taking my son to Jo Jingles since he was 6 months old. He is now approaching 4 years old and we continue to love every second!

I've been taking my son to Jo Jingles since he was 6 months old. He is now approaching 4 years old and we continue to love every second! With delayed speech it has been great to have an activity which he not only enjoys but also helps encourage his speech and confidence. In the last few weeks he has started singing along and singing outside of classes. We moved areas 2 years ago and I was worried that a new leader might unsettle him. Aileen is amazing and I had nothing to worry about. Full of energy and enthusiasm even when faced with what can be an occasionally challenging audience! We love Jo jingles. Give it a try, I gave it a try on a whim 3 years ago and I have never looked back! (Plus if I ever need a few quiet minutes, sleeping bunnies provides some much needed assistance).

Both my children have benefited so much from Aileen and Jo Jingles. I wanted my children to be exposed to music from a young age and Jo Jingles has been the perfect environment. It's amazing to see them continuously develop with their singing and instrument playing skills and it's all credit to Aileen and her wonderful enthusiasm.

I have been taking my Great Granddaughter to Jo for a year now and we both love it. Sophia comes alive singing and dancing - it's such fun.

I have been taking my great grand daughter to Jo for a year now and we both love it. Sophia comes alive singing and dancing - it's such fun. It's also good to meet other folks and mix with their children. Aileen gives such variety and there is always something different. Classes are well planned and themed and I am of the opinion that attending the class has helped develop Sophia in so many ways. We sing the songs in the car and at home - even my husband is joining in now!!!

My daughter, Mirren, has been attending jo jingles from 5 months old and has progressed brilliantly through this class. Her confidence and language development along with her physical development has greatly increased. Once her brother Òran came along he attended with Mirren from a young 6 weeks old! Fast forward 3 years and we still attend each and every week. The classes are fun and enjoyable for the children and this is all down to Aileen and her hard work!
Mirren says " Jo gets two thumbs up and two high fives!"

Jo Jingles has helped Bailey’s confidence and was something that when she was a baby we could enjoy together in class and at home, where we practised the songs together. I also love the educational aspect where Bailey learns about different instruments etc. Now I enjoy the class with both my one year old and my four year old and will continue with the classes until both are at primary school. Both Bailey and Euan get a lot from the class.

Dear Jinglers Everywhere,

Due to the ongoing Coronavirus situation and guidelines provided by the Government and Public Health England* ( & all other relevant Regional Public Health agencies) our customers and class teacher safety and well-being is absolutely paramount.

Sadly, in view of the most recent news and recommendations Jo Jingles classes are now TEMPORARILY CLOSED in ALL areas.

However, you can still enjoy Jo Jingles @ Home – many of our Jingle areas are now offering fun online music sessions so contact your local Jo Jingles representative for further details either via Facebook or https://www.jojingles.com/find-class

If there’s not one available in your area at this time do take a look online to see where you can join another online session in our Network https://www.jojingles.com/find-class.

During this very difficult time we want to support families at home and provide some musical fun and entertainment for children.

If you would like to also stock up on musical goodies to accompany the sessions visit Jo’s Shop at https://www.jojingles.com/shop – it’s business as usual, at this time, for all online orders received.

This situation is evolving rapidly, and we will keep you updated if things change but in the meantime we are continuing to follow all necessary health and safety guidelines.

We’ll also shortly be announcing some NEW and exciting Jingle products too!

We will really miss all of our lovely ‘jinglers’ but hope to see you & all your friends again very soon,

A huge THANK YOU for your ongoing support.

Keep safe and please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any queries.

Best wishes

Jo Jingles xx
