Caroline Ashworth- Founder of Jittabugs and Tutor for Lancashire & Yorkshire (Caroline tutors all of the programs)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi, My name is Caroline and I’m mummy to Alfie James. I love teaching my classes and Alfie enjoys coming with me.

My aim is to offer fun, educational classes to pre-school children and calming, bonding classes for newborns.

I love working with children and enjoy seeing their little faces light up when the music or singing begins.

Alfie begins to wiggle his little hips the minute he hears any music.

When Alfie was newborn he had lots of trouble with his tummy and so we gave him his bath and then had a session

of Baby Massage each evening and within days the problems went away.

I could talk forever on how wonderful our jittabugs programs are and how my own little boy adores joining in but you

will see for yourself from the very first lesson you come to.

Alfie and I look forward to meeting you and your little ones and can’t wait to share the special moments we have in our

sessions.

See you there!!

Caroline's qualifications include a certified member of The International Association Of Infant Massage, a baby yoga instructor accredited by A.S.E.T, a qualified dance instructor, First Aid trained,  completed a 2 day foundation course with Makaton, completed a training course in Multi-sensory play with Hullabaloo Kids, a qualified fitness instructor. And most importantly a mother herself!!!

Karen Brownsell – Tutor for North Cheshire, South Manchester & Stockport

(for class details visit classes and search for the program you are interested in and then schroll down for location, day and time)

(Baby Sign and Play, Baby Move and Groove & Pre-school Move and Groove)

 



Hello, my name is Karen, and these are my two wonderful children, Charles and Emma.

Before having my family I trained I.T. to London’s City high-flyers and have since qualified as a Level 2 Teaching Assistant. 

Recognising how important structured play and music are to learning, we’ve tried lots of children’s activity classes over the years.

When I found Jittabugs I thought they were fantastic. 

All our programs adhere to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) guidelines,

so not only do they stimulate and entertain your child; they develop learning capabilities, co-ordination, muscle control and confidence.

Jittabugs classes cover everything my family have really enjoyed, from music, movement and drama to signing and multi-sensory play. 

The only snag was that there was nothing like Jittabugs in this area,so I have taken the plunge and decided to run their classes myself.

Emma and I can’t wait to meet you, so come and join in the fun when we launch in April 2010.

Rachel Ferguson - Tutor for Newcastle and Northumberland ( Rachel tutors Baby Move & Groove & Multi-Sensory Play, Slingtime Move & Groove)

 

Hi my name is Rachel and I am your JittaBugs tutor for Newcastle and Northumberland. I have an 11 month old

baby girl Eva so I fully understand the importance of socializing with your child and attending classes that

parents can enjoy too.

I have experienced first hand how magical music can be in a babies life, its like waving a magic wand!

No matter what age or temperament of the baby, music lifts the mood, soothes, excites and educates.

My classes are educational, funky and most of all FUN.

This is a music class with a difference!

Yvonne Tolland – Tutor for Cambridshire  


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi. My name is Yvonne and I am mum to two lovely kids, Ryan & Aiyana. I currently run Baby Sign and

Play and Pre-School Move and Groove classes which I love doing.

Aiyana comes along too and enjoys taking part.

She's turned 2 now and I was looking for something to help stimulate her further.

She loves music and dancing so Jittabugs gives me the perfect opportunity to combine Aiyana's play with

my job.

In my previous life (before kids) I was a teacher and always enjoyed teaching Drama and am excited that I can

continue to do so while being able to spend time with my little ones. I can't wait to get started!

I look forward to meeting you and your little ones at a JittaBugs class.
