Mother Goose

Mother Goose is not a Nursery Song nor a Rhyme, but a collection of rhymes.

It is believed that Mother Goose is an imaginary author of a collection of fairy tales, nursery songs and rhymes. This collection is often published as Mother Goose Rhymes.

"Mother Goose" herself is often depicted as an elderly woman in country attire wearing a shawl and tall hat and is sometimes drawn as a goose.

The so-called "Mother Goose" rhymes and stories form the basis for many classic Australian and British pantomimes.

The nursery songs page show some of the Mother Goose rhymes.

“I really enjoy the connections that develop through the shared music experience over the long term, between adult-child, child-child and child-teacher. 

The journey to independence is a fascinating process as children find their own voice.” ~Jill

"My two children have participated in the Macquarie University Early Childhood Music Program for 2 - 5 year olds under the expert teaching and guidance of Jill. Jill's multi-talent abilities of singing, playing a variety of instruments and early childhood education make her a very qualified and valued music teacher. My children have flourished under her auspices and really enjoy music in all forms: singing, dancing and playing instruments. I would recommend any child to participate in one of Jill's classes learning rhythm, pitch etc in an environment full of fun and creativity."

"Jill has taught my daughter as part of the Macquarie University's Institute of Early Childhood's Music Program for Children, both when she was a two year old and four year old. On both occasions, my daughter has found her engaging and fun to have as a music teacher. As a parent and fellow music educator, Jill has a great manner with the children of all ages. Her programs are thorough and interesting, sequential and challenging, yet achievable so as to foster the love, enjoyment and creativity of music. Thanks for a great start to another young person's musical life Jill!"
