Sing & Swinglish

Woohoooo 🥳 I mean, achooo 🤪
My new song is out!

Since it’s allergy season, I had to make a silly song about it. And did you know that sneezing is actually brilliant for babies and young children? It’s not just about the giggles!

🗣️ “Achoo” is one of the first sounds little ones can imitate. Words that sound like what they mean, like “achoo”, give babies and toddlers a direct link between sound and meaning, making them easier to pick up than abstract words. Speech therapists use sneeze sounds as early imitation practice, even before a child says their first real word.

😂 Laughter is one of the first (and most powerful) ways young children connect. For babies, it’s how they communicate before they have words. For toddlers and young children, it’s one of the strongest ways they bond. Shared laughter activates both hemispheres of the brain, triggers mirror neurons (the same neurons that develop empathy) and helps regulate the nervous system.

🤧 And that build-up “A… a… a… a… ACHOOOO” is a classic speech therapy technique called a communication temptation. The anticipation creates the perfect pause for little ones to join in, fill in the gap, or just burst out laughing.

So yes, it’s a silly song about sneezing. But it’s doing a lot more than that 🧠🚂

Let me know if your kids/little learners like it 😌

Hi, I’m Stephanie 🙋🏻‍♀️
For the past 8 years, I’ve been teaching and creating my own music & play-based English programs for babies and young children.
Think original songs, educational videos, multi-sensory activities, play frameworks, and resources and guides for parents and educators.

Everything I create is grounded in neuroscience, emotional regulation, and insights from speech therapy. I love doing research and I’m constantly learning from experts in the field.

I’m currently looking for a part-time or full-time position (either on-site or remote) in play-based learning design, teaching, educational content creation, and/or program development.

Want me in your team? Let’s connect! 💌

Oops, forgot to include the male teachers 😆 We call them Sir, or Mister + their name.

Hi, I’m Stephanie! 🙋🏻‍♀️

For the past 8 years, I've been teaching and creating my own music & play-based English programs for babies and young children. Think original songs, educational videos, multi-sensory activities, play frameworks, and resources and implementation guides for parents and educators.

Music has always been at the core of my work, it's one of the most powerful tools we have for early language learning and holistic development. I've seen it firsthand 😍
I created my own teaching method and spent years teaching English as a foreign language through music, movement, storytelling, and play in nurseries and private settings across Valencia.
In doing so, I learned exactly what families and educators need, especially in a country where the demand for play-based approaches is only growing.

After years of being self-employed and working solo, I closed my program to pursue something bigger. I want to make a bigger impact and I'm ready for a new challenge 🤩
Everything I create is grounded in neuroscience, emotional regulation, and insights from speech therapy. I love doing research and I'm constantly learning from experts in the field, because I believe too many programs out there are still not truly developmentally appropriate. That's what keeps me going.

I'm looking for a full-time or part-time role where I can work with a team and create something that reaches far more children than I ever could alone. I'm open to both on-site and remote roles in play-based learning design, educational content creation, and/or program development 👩🏻‍💻

Think I could be a fit for your team? Or do you have another interesting proposal?
Send me a message, I’d love to hear from you! 📩

Ages: 2-7. What’s your favorite? 😍 Comment “Easter” and I’ll send you the link, all episodes play in one safe document, no YouTube distractions!

Remember the calm pace of 90s children’s TV? There’s a reason it worked better for our brains🫶

Here’s a quick breakdown of why low-stimulation shows support early brain development, and which winter episodes I recommend 👉🏼 (ages: 2-7)

Hi, I’m Stephanie, a multilingual educator🙋🏻‍♀️
Parents often call me Mary Poppins. That’s because I always carry a spoonful of music, movement, play & connection with me ✨

With my music-focused method, our little friends learn English with their heart, body, and mind, helping them grow into emotionally healthy and expressive little humans 🌈

Because learning should always feel meaningful, natural and fun. Isn’t that supercalifragi… well, you know what I mean! 😉
