TakeLessons and Learning Care Group, Inc. Give Families Something to Sing About

A new collaboration between Learning Care Group and TakeLessons is opening up opportunties for kids ages 5-12 to take music lessons--a much-needed service considering recent drastic school budget cuts.
Learning Care Group, the second largest for-profit early education and child care provider in North America, and TakeLessons, America's premier private music lessons company, will provide kids a chance to participate in school or in-home music lessons in over 75 participating Learning Care Group, Inc. schools, including The Children's Courtyard, Childtime Learning Centers, La Petite Academy and Tutor Time Child Care/Learning Centers.
Whether music students want to be the next American Idol, be a real-life guitar hero or become the modern-day Mozart, they will have the opportunity to foster these skills. Beginning Sept. 1, TakeLessons Certified Instructors will be providing voice lessons, guitar lessons, and piano lessons in locations including Austin, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Antonio and Seattle with plans to expand into other locations.
"We recognize there is an artist inside of everyone," said Steven Cox, TakeLessons' Founder and CEO. "The opportunity to take music lessons at an early age not only equips children with music skills, but also with self confidence and a higher likelihood of academic success."
"Research continues to demonstrate a strong correlation between quality music learning programs and academic achievement," said Amy Hellebuyck, marketing communications manager for Learning Care Group, Inc. "Our partnership with TakeLessons is one more way we inspire and impact lifelong learning for our students."
