"I am an Occupational Therapist working with special needs children in Ottawa. I heard Gen's first CD a year ago (had never heard of her before) and was so impressed that I attended her workshop in Montreal last May. Was just as impressed with the workshop as the CD. I purchased her other CDs and spread them throughout the classes in the two schools where I work. All of the teachers love them!! Gen told me she thought her best CD was Jumpin' Jellybeans so I ordered it as soon as it was available. … I must say, I agree with her although I find them all to be fabulous. As I walk through the Special Needs school I hear her music coming from every classroom. I showed the Principal the latest CD and she ordered one for every class!! The CDs have even filtered into the regular kindergarden and Grade 1 classes. Thank you Gen!!"

"Gen is an extraordinary Pediatric Occupation Therapist with the additional gift of creativity ... (she has a) voice and enthusiasm that charms children and adults."
Patti Oetter, internationally recognized lecturer in the field of Sensory Integration and author of the M.O.R.E. book
"As a teacher and a clinician, Genevieve is truly unique. She has a special way of connecting with children as well as relating to their parents. She can make the most complex information understandable to parents, thus empowering them to advocate for their children across environments. Genevieve is creativity in motion. She can make the mundane seem remarkable and the dull seem shining."
