Do Re Mi Academy programs take traditional learning formats and add a unique twist to make a child’s experience with us truly extraordinary! We believe, and research shows, that music improves retention and provides lifelong cognitive and developmental benefits. Do Re Mi Academy was started 18 years ago by Dave and Lauren Marone. Lauren is a talented vocalist and musician, and after having her own children, wanted a way to bring the joy of musical arts to others. She began teaching small group piano classes, and then expanded with a music-immersion preschool.

We are a Renton Highlands/Newcastle area preschool and music academy featuring:

  • Small-Group Piano and Violin Classes for ages 4 to 14 years. A year-round, weekly program, these classes are held Monday through Friday from 4-8 pm, and Saturdays, and feature two recitals each year for your child to showcase their growing talents!.
  • Do Re Mi Preschool for children ages 18 months to 5 years. A music-immersion preschool, programs are half-day, drop off classes from September – June.
  • Summer programs for ages 3-7. Music based, themed weekly camps from June to August. Classes are 3 hours in the morning or afternoon, Monday through Friday.
  • Musical Birthday Parties – coming soon!

Children from 18 months to 14 years will find an age appropriate and music-focused program at Do Re Mi Academy. Our custom designed programs provide the highest quality in cognitive development and enrichment activities. Far more than the ordinary, Do Re Mi Academy nurtures your child’s confidence as well as your child’s social, cognitive, analytical, and musical aptitudes at the time when development is most effective… childhood! Our goal is to provide children with positive experiences that will help them develop into successful adults.

Our vision

At Do Re Mi Academy, we believe that a child’s experience with education should be a joyful one! Research shows that music activities facilitate early cognitive development and that the use of music immersion is a powerful alternative to ordinary instructional methods. Whether your child is beginning their formal education in our Music Immersion Preschool or is enrolled in one of our Small Group Piano classes, Do Re Mi Academy strives to create a learning environment that teaches academics and musicianship while fostering a life-long love of music. To inspire your young student, we carefully select teachers who are musically talented, highly congenial, and love working with young children.
