Home - Babette Labeij

Singer, singing coach, musical director and entrepreneur

"I’ve never really stood still — I just did. I took action. Singing and music have always been my driving forces. I’m constantly full of ideas and have dozens of notebooks where I jot everything down. I usually dive straight into those ideas and figure out the obstacles along the way. I think it’s because I take action without overthinking everything that things actually happen. And if something doesn’t work out the way I planned? I come up with a new way forward.

I have a deep need for growth and innovation. I love working hard and throwing myself wholeheartedly into the projects I believe in. When you go full speed ahead, you’ll stumble sometimes — but then you get back up... and keep singing."

BABETTE AND TELEVISION

The Driving Force Behind Top Musical Productions
As the vocal coach of the Netherlands, Babette Labeij has worked for years behind the scenes with top artists and rising stars on nearly every major singing and music show in the country. Together with her team of passionate vocal coaches, she delivers nothing but the highest quality—on and off camera.

TV productions demand peak performance in a short timeframe. Babette and her team ensure that contestants—often under intense pressure—are able to relax, focus, and deliver their very best. With her experience and powerful coaching, she quickly elevates vocal performances to the next level.

More Than a Vocal Coach
Babette not only works with individual talent—she also takes on the musical direction of shows like That’s My Jam. Together with her team, she arranges, produces, and oversees both vocal and instrumental elements. Her expertise goes beyond technique—she’s involved in creative concept development, casting, and ensuring the music fits perfectly within the overall production.

She brings that same leadership to large-scale live events, like Het Boekenbal, where she crafts the full musical experience from start to finish.

International Experience
Babette’s reach extends far beyond the Netherlands. In addition to countless Dutch productions, she also contributed to the Latin American version of The Voice Kids: La Voz Kids.

“What I love most about working on TV shows is that I get to combine all my passions—singing, music, and leading a creative musical team.”
