Read what our existing franchisees have to say about joining Caterpillar Music
I love meeting the parents and I am probably having more fun than the children! I can honestly say that buying the franchise was a fantastic move.
I feel like Caterpillar Music fell into my lap and for that I am extremely grateful. The phone hasn't stopped ringing with enquiries.It still doesn't feel like a job, and it definitely doesn't feel like I am running my own business. It feels like a hobby and I love it! I especially love it when the children come out of their shells.

One little boy who comes to my classes was SO shy for nine weeks - and then in his tenth week he really started to boogie!! And I love it when you sing nursery rhymes that the small babies love and you can see the recognition on their little faces!!

When I discovered Caterpillar Music I realised that it would allow me to continue my love of working with young children and use my expertise in Music, as well as giving me much more time to spend with my family.
As a teacher, I was really impressed with the relaxed and varied approach
As a teacher, I was really impressed with the relaxed and varied approach to engaging children in music whilst having so much fun and developing other important skills such as listening, counting and social interaction.

Jan has an almost 99% success rate of customers joining her classes after attending their free trial!
Your own young children can even accompany you to the classes and have fun with you while you work. I am very busy with my franchise but enjoying every minute!
My first class opened in May, just six weeks after taking the decision to buy the franchise. The classes are very busy and great fun for the children and me!
This gives me the time and opportunity to be with my own two young boys after school
The classes are all during school hours, and I am free to run the classes in the school holidays or not, as I choose. This gives me the time and opportunity to be with my own two young boys after school and in the holidays. Also your own children can even accompany you to the classes and have fun with you while you work.
Before this venture, I worked full time as a Molecular Geneticist, at Guy’s Hospital and for Cancer Research UK.
