"Musiquita is a vibrant and sparkly bilingual experience. Young children and caregivers are made to feel welcome, as they can't help but move to the beat and learn some new words. Jesse and Blanca are the whole package, providing superior musicianship, all while bringing the fun and panache. High quality entertainment for all!"

“Musiquita is a musically talented, high energy, bilingual duo perfect for public library events! Blanca and Jesse are so amazing at getting parents, caregivers, and kids moving, laughing, and singing along. They are extremely personable, professional, adaptable, so easy to work with; an absolute pleasure! You won't be disappointed. Highly recommend Musiquita to be a part of your library repertoire.”

“ I cannot recommend Musquita enough! Blanca and Jesse do an incredible job engaging the little ones with the music and getting caregivers involved. Class is so fun and memorable! Plus the songs they sing, especially the ones they write, are super catchy; we end up singing them all week long! Every time my baby leaves class, it is evident that she feels seen and heard. If you’re looking for a fun and engaging class for your little one, then look no further than Musiquita!

“Musiquita’s socially distant music gathering is literally the timely rain to Forest Hills for families with babies. My son gets to observe and learn from others in the group, enjoy the engaging bilingual songs with various instruments, and parents can have some fun too. I’ve also learned quite a few new songs here myself to play with my sons at home.
Not to mention that he took his first steps during one of the sessions. Somehow music encouraged him to stand up on his own and explore the world on his own feet. Highly recommend it for both babies and parents to have some much needed relaxing yet
fun time.”
— Judy, mama of 1 year old
“Blanca and Jesse really made our daughter’s first birthday into an unforgettable event! Everyone had so much fun. They even played our special requests so well. They are just a couple of really talented musicians who are also super fun! I can’t thank them enough and I highly recommend them for your little ones special event!”

“Blanca and Jesse came and celebrated my 3 year old birthday, they were super engaging and all the kids enjoyed the music, especially the violin solo.
With the pandemic, having Blanca and Jesse as part of our community really has been the only way I was able to have some normalcy for my daughter’s birthday. Thank you!”
— Lucy, mama of 1 year old and 3 year old
