New Amsterdam School is a Waldorf School in the East Village for 10 months - 5 years
Their programming is "intentionally designed to nurture a connection to nature, connection to the community, and connection to self." As part of their philosophy, we ask families and nannies to abstain from cell phone use during class (we are actually really excited about this!).

What to Bring!​
If you have a young infant, consider bringing a thin blanket for them to roll/do tummy Time on.
(and to protect the floor from spit-up, lol!)
​​
We supply instruments for the kids (which we clean after each class)!
Please do not bring other toys to class unless you don't want to use our shakers, Bells & Drums.
But DO buy yourself some instruments so your kids can jam at home too!
Playing music at home will give them a chance to explore all they have learned in class.
See our recommended instruments here
​
Classroom Etiquette:
-Shoes off inside
-No solid food or pouches
-Bottles, nursing and any non-staining drinks are always ok!
-Please limit cell phone use to 5 minutes in class (so you can rock out with your little one!)
-Adults - put your drinks (like coffee!) in a safe place and/or spill safe container.
-We are happy that class is a social place for adults too! But please talk quietly, so the kids can hear the music without your teacher having to yell.
-No outside toys in class unless your child needs a "Lovie" or you want to use your own shakers/bells as Toys/guitars can cause sharing issues and distractions sometimes.​​

About Bandleader Brendan
Since 2019, kids all over Long Island, Westchester and Brooklyn were raving about the Bandleader Brendan Experience. Now, he's finally moved to NYC for us all to enjoy! An amazing guitarist and singer, Brendan can play ANYTHING and has a huge repertoire. His versatile voice can effortlessly switch from gritty rock and roll to soothing lullabies, and his genuine "sweetheart" personality shines through the whole time.
