MoreABOUT US
``As I saw my daughter for the first time, I played that first note, and the world changed. I had received a gift, and it was now my responsibility to take care of what I’d been given. Rock and Roll Daycare began as a gift to my daughter, and now my three sons, and I can’t help but wake up each day knowing that today is a new opportunity to nurture that gift. People often ask what Rock and Roll Daycare is, and while we are a music based Montessori school for infants, toddlers, and preschool, my favorite answer is, Rock and Roll Daycare is a love story to my children.`` Christopher Vuk - Founder

TESTIMONIALS
Kaiyi really enjoyed preschool at Rock and Roll, and he continues to sing many of the songs that he learned there. The music is really great and it's what makes RRDC different from other preschools. Thanks for running such a wonderful program! (M. Xu, Parent)
Our twins boys have loved rock n' roll since they started, they are always excited to go to school, and they come home singing and dancing. The teachers and staff are really wonderful and caring. Catered food is wonderful and makes life so much easier. (A. Natenshon, Parent)
I highly recommend the Rock & Roll East Cambridge. There is a daily music component, which seems good for providing entertainment and intellectual stimulation. The school puts a lot of thought into educating the children in an age appropriate manner. (A. Y., Parent)
FEATURED TEACHER
Chen Lin is this month’s featured employee. We recently caught up with Chen, an incredible violist and music teacher. She has been working with Rock and Roll Daycare for 6 years. Learn more about Chen in this special article.
What inspires you?
Children – their reactions to the music classes inspire me to come up with different ways to make things interesting. Sometimes I follow their lead, sometimes I improvise, and it all comes from how the kids respond.
What is your favorite part about working with Rock and Roll Daycare?
Seeing the kids laugh and smile during the classes – it’s pure joy.
How do you balance your career here in Rock and Roll Daycare and you family/personal life?
As a freelance musician, I have private students and rehearsals mostly in the afternoons and evenings, so doing the classes at RRDC in the mornings gives me a nice energetic start of the day! I also enjoy singing the songs I teach at RRDC to my son who’s about 3 years old.
