About Mini Melodies

Mini Melodies is run by Andrea, a passionate music teacher who is experienced in teaching young children through the early stages of development. 

"I've been a keen singer and performer from an early age, taking part in all my school productions and accepting many lead roles. I studied singing, drama and dance at Brighton and Hove School of Music and Drama – where I gained recognised certificates and took part in festivals. I went on to full-time Stage School in Brighton at the age of 14.

After school, I became a drama teacher at a small preparatory school whilst still being involved with local dramatic societies. I started singing for pop bands in my late teens and met my husband who is a drummer – and who currently runs a highly successful business called “Shake Rattle and Roll”.

After having my own children I became a registered childminder which has been a fantastically rewarding job. I have always used singing and music as a way of entertaining children and helping them to develop confidence and musical ability.

Now that my own children are older Mini Melodies offers me a chance to combine my love of singing and experience with small children."
