About Us
Wouldn't it be great if, when your child was born, you were handed a manual and were told what to do, how to do it, and how to bring out the best in your child?
As a parent in the Inner West of Sydney I understand that you want the best for your child in this great area. Our classes service the Inner West area specifically Erskineville, Newtown, Balmain, Marrickville and Glebe. Kindermusik® is a fun educational journey that helps explore and unlock your child's potential.
Kindermusik® caters for all children and our classes are warm, educational, supportive and, best of all, great musical fun! -- Tina Harris

Tina brings her love of music and singing to Kindermusik® with her classes servicing the main Inner West areas specifically Newtown, Erskineville, Glebe, Marrickville, Earlwood and Balmain.
As both mother and teacher Tina realised the need for the highest quality musical experience for children to share and enjoy with their families in the inner West area.
Bassandsop Music presents Kindermusik®, a wonderful and fun musical foundation for the future. Supporting learning in all areas of development and providing the highest quality home materials, Kindermusik® is the best place to be!
Rae Dahm
Rae started teaching Kindermusik in 2003 and is thrilled to be joining the team after some “extended maternity leave”. With a strong background in drama, voice and performance in both New Zealand and Australia, Rae has always enjoyed spending time with the world’s youngest inhabitants. Kindermusik is the perfect blend of her love of both music and children. As a firm believer in spending quality time with children, especially in the first 5 years, she recommends Kindermusik as a wonderful way to introduce a love of music and learning whilst having the time of your life with your little one. “Kids learn best when having fun and there is certainly an abundance of that in your average Kindermusik class. The beautiful thing is that if you can’t be the one actually in class with your child (parent, grandparents, nannies or carers are all welcome!), then the At Home Materials provide that link for you to enjoy musical activities together at home every day so you don’t miss out on all the fun”.
Rae is loving introducing Kindermusik now to her own daughter and seeing the benefits at home first-hand. “Come and join us and see what all the noise is about”.
WARNING: Joining a Kindermusik class may result in spontaneous laughter, moments of contemplative bliss, having an absolute ball, and the urge to return again every week!
