Question 1

What is Jingle Tots?

Accepted Answer

Jingle Tots is our very own music and movement program, created after 14 years of running Jo Jingles South West. Same teachers, same fun, brand new adventures!

Question 2

What ages do you cater for?

Accepted Answer

We run sessions for babies from 3 months up to preschoolers around 5 years old, with groups tailored to each stage.

Question 3

Do parents or carers stay in the class?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Our classes are designed for children and their grown-ups to enjoy together.

Question 4

What should we bring to class?

Accepted Answer

Just yourselves and a drink bottle. We provide all instruments and props.

Question 5

Do I need to be able to sing in tune?

Accepted Answer

Not at all! Our classes are all about having fun and making music together. The little ones don’t mind if you’re the next Adele or totally off-key — they just love hearing your voice.

Question 6

Do you include Auslan (sign language) in your classes?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We include simple Auslan signs in every Jingle Tots class. It’s a fun and inclusive way to help little ones communicate, connect and learn through music and movement. 🎶🤲

Question 7

Can siblings join in?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Jingle Tots is a great activity to do together as a family. We offer mixed-age sessions and welcome siblings at a discounted rate (no charge for non-walking siblings). We recommend you enrol in to a class most age appropriate to your eldest child so that they are full stimulated however your youngest child can still join in and we will guide you on how to adapt any parts of the class to their level.

Question 8

What if my child is shy or unsettled?

Accepted Answer

That’s totally normal — little ones often take time to watch before joining in. They’ll soon be jingling along in their own time.

Question 9

What if my child just wants to run around instead of joining in?

Accepted Answer

That’s perfectly normal! Every child engages in their own way — some jump straight in, others like to watch, dance, or explore. We welcome all personalities and promise they’ll still be soaking up the music magic.

Question 10

How do I enrol?

Accepted Answer

You can enrol online via the website https://www.jingletots.com.au/book-a-class (https://www.jingletots.com.au/book-a-class)or if you prefer, send us an email at hello@jinglestots.com.au (hello@jinglestots.com.au)and we’ll confirm your place by email.

Question 11

Will the songs get stuck in my head?

Accepted Answer

Most definitely… and we take no responsibility for you singing “Shake, Rattle & Roll” while doing the grocery shopping! 🎶

Question 12

Can I try a class before enrolling for the term?

Accepted Answer

As a general rule, we do not offer trial classes but not for good reason. Firstly, the main reason is that with over 14 years experience in the business and teaching thousands of babies, toddlers and preschoolers, we just know that one class will not show your child's potential in a class. Many children of this tender age take a few weeks or more to start participating in the class. We have to give them time to adjust to new surroundings.

The other reason is that many of our classes are actually full before we even start the term and so there may not even a be a place to trial for!

Saying that, if we do have available spots in the class, and you would feel more comfortable doing a trial first before committing to the term, we may be able to arrange this subject to space availability. Please enquire with us.

Question 13

Can grown-ups join in too?

Accepted Answer

Of course — and we love it when you do! In fact, the more you join in, the more your little one will. Plus, who doesn’t enjoy a good shake of the tambourine? 🥁

Question 14

What if we miss a class?

Accepted Answer

We do our best to offer make-up classes within the same term, subject to space availability.

Question 15

Do you offer refunds?

Accepted Answer

Refunds are not available once the term begins, except in exceptional circumstances. Please see our Terms & Conditions for full details.

Question 16

What happens if I forget my dancing shoes?

Accepted Answer

No worries at all — bare feet, socks, or even gumboots are welcome! The only thing you must bring is your smile (and maybe a bit of energy to jingle along). 🎶👣✨
