From singing madrigals in high school to performing a cappella in college, Steph Bond has long known the power of the voice as a primary instrument — a value that sits at the very heart of Music Together®'s approach. Her relationship with music has never stopped growing: she picked up the banjo six years ago and continues to seek out new artists and genres with the same curiosity she brings to her classroom. After four years working closely with young children as a nanny, she recognized how naturally music and child development intertwine, and began running her own informal music sessions before discovering that Music Together® was the program she'd been trying to build all along. Now a certified Music Together® teacher, Steph is passionate about creating a space where children and caregivers learn the way children learn best: through exposure, play, and the freedom to experiment.
