MANDY YORK
director & teacher

Ms. Mandy opened Music Time of Milford in the Fall of 2015. She is overjoyed at how our amazing community of families has grown since!

Mandy studied vocal performance at Grand Valley State University and spent several years performing and teaching in the Grand Rapids area. After moving to Milford in 2015, Mandy completed Music Together® teacher training with Lili Levinowitz, Ph.D. (Director of Research, Music Together LLC, coauthor of Music Together, and Professor Emeritus at Rowan University).

Mandy lives in Milford with her husband and two daughters. She believes that music education starts with family. She hopes that all her Music Together families are making "forever-memories" with music at home.

 

DANNY DI NARDO
teacher

Danny Di Nardo completed her Music Together® training and joined the Music Time team in the summer of 2023. She is a graduate of Oakland University where she received her B.M. in Vocal Performance. Danny has been interested in working with Music Together® ever since her niece and nephews took Ms. Mandy's class years ago!

Her past jobs have all involved working with children, which is a passion of hers alongside music. Danny is active in theatre, works as a character for the Enchanted Princess Party, is a private vocal instructor, and is very active in community theatre. She is so excited to facilitate a safe environment of music, love and growth, and she hopes you sign up to make music with her!

“We just LOVE Miss Danny.  She is excellent.  She’s wonderful with the kids, keeps the class going at an appropriate pace with giving each child attention, but not slowing it down too much for any one child, and has a BEAUTIFUL voice…She’s just lovely!”  -Deena H.

 

KIERAN WALSH
teacher

Kieran was a Music Together® parent for 4 years before she completed her Music Together training and joined the Music Time of Milford team in 2023.

She has been singing since she was a small child, having been a part of numerous choirs over the years, and performing at special events, notably for the Red Wings Alumni. Kieran was the sole non-music major in the Women's Chorus at Western Michigan University. Once called a 'modern-day Mary Poppins', Kieran brings a passion for music and helping families create joy in their households.

Kieran can be found in the garden and near the lakeshore with her husband, children, puppy dog and kitty cat.
