BilinguaSing

What BilinguaSing does

BilinguaSing (BilinguaSing Ltd) is a UK-based private company founded in 2013 by Ellie Baker that delivers bilingual, music-led language classes for children from birth to 11 years old, taught in French, Spanish, German and Italian. The core product is a multi-sensory, developmental-stage curriculum (newborn babies, mobile babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers) delivered live by trained instructors, supported by a fully-copyrighted proprietary library of bilingual songs and, since 2025, a 'First 100 Words' book series in the four target languages.

The business operates primarily through a franchise model: 18 independent franchisees run classes in their own territories, with head office providing training, curriculum, marketing materials and ongoing support. Direct-to-consumer revenue comes from recurring parent-and-child class subscriptions, complementing B2B revenue from nursery, pre-school and primary school sessions (EYFS, KS1, KS2), plus ancillary streams including children's parties, branded merchandise, e-commerce music and book sales, and franchise fees/royalties. Distribution combines an in-person franchise network (UK, Ireland, France, Switzerland, with Canada listed as coming soon) with online classes delivered via a private Facebook group at £30 per family. The company holds Children's Activities Association Gold Accreditation and has won multiple industry and parent-voted awards.

At the operational level, BilinguaSing is a small organisation (11-50 employees) with no external funding, no parent company, and no disclosed AI/ML capabilities. Technology enablement is limited to standard integrations (Class4Kids for booking, YouTube/Vimeo for video, Mapbox for class finding, Google Analytics and Meta Pixel for marketing measurement). The commercial core is content IP plus a distributed local-class delivery network rather than a software platform.
