Hi, I'm Jill. You can contact me through the Form on this page.

Welcome to jillsMusic.

As a music educator for many years, a Tutor and Tertiary Supervisor at Sydney University and Macquarie University and a former teacher at the Macquarie University Institute of Early Childhood (IEC) Music Program,and
Commissioner of Early Childhood Music Education Commission, of the International Society of Music Educators, my passion is children's music.

Thank you to all those families and educators I have worked with over time.  It's been an amazing journey for me to know you all and watch the shared joy grow through music and especially singing.

I will now be using my expertise and experience to develop resources for parents, grandparents, and educators, to support you all in your musical engagement with children, whether in the home or early childhood setting.

I will also be available for professional development sessions for  Educators working with children Birth to 5 years, and presentations for parent groups regarding the importance of music and singing in supporting learning and building relationship.

Watch this space!

Kind regards,
Jill

“I really enjoy the connections that develop through the shared music experience over the long term, between adult-child, child-child and child-teacher. 

The journey to independence is a fascinating process as children find their own voice.” ~Jill

"My two children have participated in the Macquarie University Early Childhood Music Program for 2 - 5 year olds under the expert teaching and guidance of Jill. Jill's multi-talent abilities of singing, playing a variety of instruments and early childhood education make her a very qualified and valued music teacher. My children have flourished under her auspices and really enjoy music in all forms: singing, dancing and playing instruments. I would recommend any child to participate in one of Jill's classes learning rhythm, pitch etc in an environment full of fun and creativity."

"Jill has taught my daughter as part of the Macquarie University's Institute of Early Childhood's Music Program for Children, both when she was a two year old and four year old. On both occasions, my daughter has found her engaging and fun to have as a music teacher. As a parent and fellow music educator, Jill has a great manner with the children of all ages. Her programs are thorough and interesting, sequential and challenging, yet achievable so as to foster the love, enjoyment and creativity of music. Thanks for a great start to another young person's musical life Jill!"
