Little hands, meaningful conversations. 💚💛

Following our last post about baby signing, you might be wondering: “How do the signs work—and are they difficult to learn?”

Did you know... The Baby Sensory® Sign System draws on more than 40 years of research and exploration of signing systems used in childcare and special needs settings.

It’s designed around simple, expressive gestures and natural hand movements that babies and parents can imitate and remember. Many will already feel familiar—the everyday gestures we use to communicate basic needs. Others are adapted from established signing systems.

You don’t need to learn everything at once! Start with a few signs that fit your day, use them alongside spoken words and enjoy practising together.

One sign can also represent several related words. For example, “car” and “bus” share a sign, while “star”, “twinkle”, “shine”, “lamp”, “light” and “bright” share another. Your words and the situation help give it meaning.

Already use a different signing system? That’s welcome too—babies can become familiar with different signs used consistently by the people around them.

Our ABC Signing Book and Baby Sensory® Signbook app provide illustrated signs to explore at home, with 160 functional signs available in the app.

🍂 Looking for a little Baby Sensory® at-home idea over half term? Explore the app, choose a couple of signs and practise together during a favourite song, playtime or your everyday routines. A lovely way to keep communicating and connecting between classes!

Did you know you can sign “I love you” to your baby before they can say it back? 💚💛

Baby signing is about more than learning a sign—it’s about sharing a moment and understanding each other.

Before spoken words arrive, signs can give your little one another way to express their needs, interests and feelings. You notice, respond and share in what has caught their attention—and a little conversation begins.

That two-way connection is at the heart of baby signing: looking, listening and responding to each other, strengthening your bond through everyday moments together.

At Baby Sensory®, signing is woven into our magical sessions every single week—including our much-loved “Say Hello to the Sun”—helping to support communication and connection through songs, signs and shared moments.

Want to practise at home? Our Baby Sensory® Signbook app helps you keep your favourite signs going between classes.

This , we see you.

💚💛

Every parent’s journey is different. No two paths into parenthood look the same, and what one parent finds hard, another might not.

Every baby is different too. There’s no single “right way” to navigate every moment. We all have good days and harder days—and so do our babies.

If today feels like a difficult one, you don’t have to put on a brave face. You’re welcome at Baby Sensory® just as you are, whether you’ve had a lovely morning or barely made it out of the door.

There’s no shame in reaching out to friends, family, your midwife, health visitor or GP if you’re struggling. You deserve care and support too.

It’s okay not to be okay. You don’t have to have it all together, and you don’t have to do this alone.

💚💛

Tomorrow marks the start of Baby Loss Awareness Week 🌟

Baby Loss Awareness Week exists to raise awareness of the scale and impact of pregnancy and baby loss, and to show support for families who have experienced the loss of a baby.

Half of adults in the UK have experienced baby loss themselves or know someone who has. Yet it can still feel like something we don’t talk about enough, leaving many parents and families feeling isolated in their grief.

Throughout Baby Loss Awareness Week, our friends at Tommy’s will be sharing stories from families, information about baby loss, and support for anyone who has been affected.

If you need support, please reach out to the Tommy’s midwives at [email protected], join one of their private Facebook groups, or visit tommys.org.

And on 15 October, we’ll join families around the world for the Wave of Light, lighting a candle at 7pm in remembrance of babies who are loved and missed. 🕯️

We’re thinking of all the families in our Baby Sensory® and Toddler Sense® communities for whom this week may feel particularly close to home.

Autumn brings a whole new world of scents for your baby to discover! 🍂

Your baby’s sense of smell plays a special part in how they experience the world—from recognising familiar people to exploring something new.

Everyday scent experiences can spark curiosity and capture your little one’s attention. Smell is also closely linked to memory and emotion, so the scents associated with happy moments now may bring back fond memories in years to come.

Every season has its own scents—from fresh air on an autumn walk to familiar cuddles at home.

At Baby Sensory®, we love helping you discover the wonder in your baby’s senses, both in class and at home.

There’s still time to join our autumn fun! Visit our booking page or drop us a DM to find out more.

Why do we include signing in our Baby Sensory® classes? 👋

Babies communicate long before they can speak — through sounds, expressions, body movements and gestures such as waving, pointing and reaching up for a cuddle.

Signing can:

✨ Give your baby another way to express their needs
✨ Support two-way communication and early understanding
✨ Reduce frustration for babies and parents
✨ Encourage eye contact, interaction and connection
✨ Strengthen the bond between you and your baby

We always use signs alongside spoken words — never instead of them — and there’s no pressure for your baby to sign by a particular age. It’s about communication, connection and enjoyment, not performing on demand. 💚

Our sign book, The ABC of Baby Signing, is based on more than 35 years of research and observation into how babies learn to sign.

It’s another example of how every part of Baby Sensory has been carefully designed with your baby’s learning and development in mind.
