About
Hello! I'm Katy, a professional singer with 25 years of experience and classical training. I've performed extensively across the UK and internationally, including as a resident and guest cabaret artist for P&O Cruises. My career has spanned musicals, pantomimes, and most recently, I've become a professional nursery rhyme singer through my successful baby and toddler franchise, Little Music Stars Music Groups.
Learning music and developing singing techniques from a young age had a profoundly positive impact on me. Children learn more easily than adults, which is why I'm offering the opportunity for them to hone their talents in a brilliantly fun way!
