Description

Babies use all kinds of signs and gestures as a natural part of learning to talk. Encouraging your baby with signs like milk, more, change nappy or tired will help your baby communicate. Our classes follow the same structure every week, which is something that the babies soon learn to recognise and respond to very positively. We introduce new signs each week and we then "spiral learn", so that signs and songs are repeated throughout the term.

Meet Nadia Austin

I live with my Wife and our twin girls Sadie and Rosa, you'll see their lovely faces pop up from time to time on our Social pages! We all started Sing and Sign during lockdown 1 as a family when the girls were 3 months old. The classes were joyous. For the first time since they were born I was communicating with them both in a really productive and engaging way. We enjoyed Sadie's first laugh whilst dancing around our living room during a Zoom Babes class, Rosa was able to tell us when she was hungry by signing 'milk' and I became much more confident communicating with and looking after my babies. I hadn't heard about baby signing before joining the class and it was eye opening how natural it is for parents and for babies. The first time your baby shows you what they want using gestures is magical! Gestures like waving are used all the time to communicate with babies, and each other. Sing and Sign teaches you the tools to be able to go one step further with those gestures in a very relaxed, fun and musical way so that your baby can let you know if they're thirsty, if they're in pain, what they remember from their day or who they want to see. My girls love their Sing and Sign lessons, signing is built in to our daily routine and I find it fascinating which signs they pick up and what they want to tell me. This inspired me to become a teacher.

Sing and Sign is easy to learn, really enjoyable for babies and their carers and it is an incredible tool to help understand babies needs, thoughts and ideas. I love teaching this incredible skill and I am excited to share this joy with you and your baby.
