Bring Ladybug Music® to Your Community

Since 2009, Ladybug Music® has brought families together through joyful, soulful, high-quality music classes for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers. Built on award-winning original music, thoughtfully rearranged traditional songs, and a warm, multi-sensory curriculum, Ladybug Music® has become a beloved part of family life in communities across the U.S. and Canada.

Now, we’re inviting educators, musicians, and aspiring small business owners to license the Ladybug Music® program and build a meaningful business of their own.

Why Ladybug Music®

Ladybug Music® blends strong musicianship, joyful teaching, and a thoughtfully developed classroom experience. Licensees receive access to two years of award-winning music, a thoughtfully designed curriculum, and training in both teaching and class management.

Is This Opportunity Right for You?

The ideal Ladybug Music® licensee loves music, enjoys working with young children and their grownups, and feels excited about building a small business rooted in creativity and community.

You may be a great fit if you are musically inclined, warm and engaging, confident leading groups, and ready to invest time, energy, and heart into growing a business.

Investment & Getting Started

Starting a Ladybug Music® center is an investment in yourself and your community. Startup costs may include training, instruments, equipment, permits, insurance, advertising, and website-related expenses. Initial startup costs typically begin around $3,000, depending on your location and setup.

Founded by a Musician,
Built for Families.

Ladybug Music® was founded by Patricia Margarita Maertens, who began teaching early childhood music in Los Angeles in 2004 and launched Ladybug Music® in 2009.

Patricia studied at the acclaimed Grove School of Music in Los Angeles, founded by respected film composers and jazz musicians. Along with her years as a working singer, songwriter, and producer, that training helped shape the musically rich, soulful, and eclectic foundation of Ladybug Music®.
