ABOUT VANESSA JONES

Age: 40

Lives in: Williamsburg

Reader Since: 2013

I’m the director and teacher of Music Together Williamsburg where we use singing, dancing, chants, instruments and silliness to engage young children from newborn to age 5. Playing with rhythm and pitch and exposing young children to a wide variety of tonalities supports the creation of neural pathways that will prime a child for math, reading and language development.

What She Likes Best About The Health Journal? I like the Profile section because I am inspired by the stories and depth of commitment of everyday people. I also love the Food & Nutrition section because I love trying new foods and recipes.
