Kestrel has always has had a true passion for music and sharing that with the general public." ~ Crystal Koons, Treehouse Montessori Executive Director/ Owner
"Kestrel's love for children and music are so apparent when she leads children together in songs. She is caring and encouraging and keeps the kiddos interested. My daughters (ages 4 and 2) come home and teach me songs that they learned in her sing-a-longs." - Alice Conovitz
"The music that Kestrel brings to the classroom is beautiful. Kestrel understands how to incorporate children who are not necessarily musically inclined in an intrinsic, fun, and learning way. Her experience speaks for her musical presence; every moment brings the knowledge of music alive." -Sarah Perry, Montessori Directress
We now have a keyboard, guitar, drums, harmonica & tambourine! I'm certain Kestrel has played a positive role in our kids lives and her teaching abilities are phenomenal. She loves music and kids love to learn from her. Our 2 year old states all the time, Kestrel plays this song, if he recognizes a song she sings or plays for them. We love that our children adore music at such an early age. Thank you Kestrel. -Jill Haycock
