About Us

I am a lower Fairfield County elementary school teacher with 13 years experience. I have a B.A. in Elementary/Special Education and Psychology from Providence College. I have a M.A. in Curriculum and Instruction from Fairfield University. I began to research baby sign language as I watched my son grow but was too young to communicate with us. I was intrigued by the benefits of baby signing with hearing babies and couldn't wait to become certified in order to spread this knowledge of American Sign Language (ASL) with other parents who want to be less frustrated, give their child a gift of communication and have a greater bond with their child/children. I started signing wth my son at 6 months and since then he has been signing and speaking a great deal to communicate with us! He is putting together 6 word sentences at 23 months! It is an absolutely amazing experience and we cannot believe his vocabulary!
