Meet Ms. Olivia
Olivia Rubbo, the Founder of Mind Body Music NYC, is a professional singer and actor with a BFA in Musical Theater from Emerson College and over 10 years of experience teaching music and movement classes for kids. She deeply values the role emotional intelligence plays in creating a more joyous and fulfilling life. In 2020, Olivia was inspired to create a program for babies and toddlers that not only develops their musicality but uses music as a tool to lay the groundwork for social and emotional development.
Since then, Ms. Olivia’s program has reached thousands of children with the help of various brilliant teachers and collaborators!
Amy, In-Home Group Class
“I love how engaging the material is. The teacher is always very kind to the kids, and enthusiastic about her lessons!”
Emily, Drop-in Class
“Henry loved his Mind Body Music NYC Classes! Olivia leads each class with so much imagination, warmth, and humor. She is very attuned to the children and creates a wonderful high-spirited environment for them to enjoy music and each other.”
Rachel, Birthday Party & Group Class
“Olivia’s music classes are absolutely wonderful! Our 3 year old always comes back from class showing off some new dance moves, and our 1 year old is enraptured by the songs, maracas, bubbles, etc. Olivia also performed for our son’s birthday party and incorporated his favorite themes into the music (trucks, cars, etc.), which was very sweet.”
Nanny, Drop-in Class
“Tyler has been to at least four different music programs on the Upper West Side and this is the first time I’ve seen him interact and dance in class! We can’t wait to come back!”
LIVE MUSICAL:
The perfect PreSchool Assembly
This hugely fun new musical for children ages 2-6 introduces invaluable social and emotional lessons through music and play – featuring our original SEL kids songs!
Children this age are experiencing a lot of change: new settings, new relationships, new playtime dynamics. This show brings some of these new scenarios to light and provides fun examples for how to work through them.
Ms. Olivia and Barry the Bear
Ms. Olivia uses music and play to help children understand and regulate their emotions! She takes concepts from child psychologists and leaders in the self-help space and translates them into engaging lessons that children will not only understand but enjoy watching/doing!
As adults, so many of us discover simple but life changing tools in therapy and beyond - Imagine if we had these tools as children?!
These videos are created with love by Ms. Olivia and her team at Mind Body Music NYC- an early childhood music company with a mission to inspire the next generation of emotionally intelligent kiddos one jammin tune at a time :)
