Susan^♪s Policies and Courtesy Information:

^♪  Due to life-threatenening allergies, please respect that my studio is SCENT-FREE (including hair products, perfume, etc.) and NUT FREE.

^♪  In case of inclement weather, if the city buses are running, Kindermusik is on.  If in doubt, call to hear a recording on my VoiceMail after 8:30 am (345-4552).

^♪   Missed lessons are still charged, so do try to attend every lesson, health permitting.  If you cannot make it to your scheduled class, please call me as soon as possible.  When I know about openings in advance, I can take the opportunity of your absence to schedule other make-up classes or visits.  Of course, I would be happy to schedule a make-up class for you.

^♪   Plan to arrive about 5 - 10 minutes before class.  Please keep toys, juice cups, and pacifiers out of sight, and finish snacks prior to class.  (Breastfeeding during class is fine.)

^♪   At the end of each session we celebrate together!  You are welcome to bring other family members to this class, and take pictures.  Please respect the privacy of our families and do not post pictures online of anyone else in your child's class without their express permission.

^♪   Due to limited class sizes and the delicacy of the younger class settings, one adult only accompanies in baby and toddler classes.  (Two may attend in Family classes.) 

^♪  Many parents tell me that they see a completely different child at home as they share Kindermusik activities there.  It's okay if your child is more comfortable observing during our class.  If your child cannot focus on the present activity - don't worry, but do actively attempt to help them re-focus or quietly engage them in participating in their own way.

^♪   "It takes a village to raise a child" and we all understand that young children are still learning how to interact in a group setting. However, I do ask that you be sensitive not to compromise the safety or enjoyment of others in class.  If your child is having difficulty focusing or participating, gently redirect his or her attention.  If your child becomes disruptive (crying, screaming, running - it happens to all of us!), please step outside and give your child a moment to calm.  Do come back in as soon as you can! 

^♪   I love that parents connect with other parents, but please visit before or after class, and not during class time!

^♪   Thank you for turning off your cell phone ringer during class, and keeping this time precious for your and your child.

Refund Policy:  I will refund the balance of tuition (less Home Materials and $25 administrative fee) until Lesson 5. Families are responsible for lessons up to the time I am notified personally, whether or not the student has attended classes. 

My goal is to make your Kindermusik class a highlight of your week, so if you have any concerns, please call or email me so I can help!  Susan
