Music with Shannalee

Family Music Classes teaching singing, movement, and rhymes for ages 0-5 & their loved ones in Missoula, MT.

Hi! I’m Shannalee — thanks for checking out music classes for your family. I’ve been teaching since 2013 here in Montana and in Utah. My teaching is driven by a love for early childhood music education. I truly believe that music is not just an art form, but a vital component for brain development, especially during those crucial early years when our brains grow and develop at such a rapid pace. Active musical participation engages all areas of the brain, helping to create essential neural pathways that support learning and growth.

Whether you’re a musical parent or totally new to music, my classes make music accessible and playful. After training with experts in the field, I guide families to sing, dance, and tell stories together while building a warm, supportive community. No experience needed — let’s make music and memories together!

“Shannalee is the sweetest-tempered person and so knowledgeable when it comes to music. My daughter adores her. Shannalee has really sparked a love and interest for music within my daughter, it’s been so fun to see!”
Dr. PS

“My children took piano lessons from [Mrs. Baird] during 2018. Mrs. Baird loves music and this reflects on her enthusiasm to teach. When it comes to her teaching style, she is a perfectionist, patient and encouraging. She went the extra mile to individualize her lessons for each of my children. Mrs. Baird really cares about teaching my children to read music and play to the best of their ability. She takes the time to get to know them, their interest in music and tries to select pieces that are exciting for them to want to learn to play. I highly recommend Mrs. Baird to anyone considering piano lessons for their children.”
