Becca Geddes - Music Go Round Founder
Hi, I'm Becca Geddes, a pre-school music teacher trained by the Pre-school Music Association and creator of Music Go Round. Our classes are all about having fun together with music and ensuring that your child's early musical experiences are creative and enjoyable. Having enjoyed a love of music since my own nursery days, I am passionate about providing a stimulating introduction to music for young children, in a playful environment, which they can relate to and learn from.

After completing a PGCE in Secondary Music at Bristol University , Siân taught for five years at Nansuch High School for Girls working as Head of Department in her last year.
Since becoming a mum herself in 2007, Siân has become passionate about passing on her love of music to our very youngest children and giving them the very best start in their musical lives. As part of reaching a wider audience she has joined the Music Go Round team, overseeing the development of the musical curriculum and bringing her technical expertise to ensure that our classes are of the highest musical quality.
