Many parents rely heavily on reading the body language and gestures of their pre-verbal babies in an effort to understand their needs. But babies’ natural way of communication can be extended through use of baby sign language - a few simple gestures that can make a big difference in empowering and meeting the needs of your child…

How many times does your baby cry a day? How many of those times do you feel like joining in because you just can’t figure out what they need?
Teaching your baby how to sign reduces the tantrums, tears and trauma (for both of you!) because your baby is able to tell you what they need! It may seem too good to be true, but I promise you - signing with your baby works! And easily becomes the “miracle fix” parents like YOU have been praying for! .

What is baby sign language?
It’s a means of communicating with your baby before they have matured and developed enough to be able to talk.
Babies from as young as 6 months are able to learn how to communicate their needs through sign language. The pathways between their brain and hands develops sooner than that of their mouth, tongue and throat. So it makes sense to use their hands to talk while they’re still little! This reduces frustration, results in fewer tantrums and tears (from both of you!) and builds trust between you and your baby.

Spending time outside with your baby provides so many lovely opportunities for them to sign! Birds, bees, trees, flowers, wind, sun, rain, airplanes, helicopters, the moon - you can have so much pointing them out to your baby and teaching them. Before long, they will start noticing these things too and signing to you before you have even seen them! It’s incredibly rewarding and your clapping and praise for your clever baby will encourage them further.

When your baby is so keen to sign what she saw, that she opens the rain flap to show you!
This is why we sign with our babies! We want to encourage communication and connection between you. When your baby sees something interesting, she can tell you about it. This then gives you a wonderful opportunity to teach her all about it. For example, when she sees a dog you can teach her about what noise a dog makes, what colour the dog is, how many legs it has and how to be gentle with it. And you know she understands what you’re saying!
This is why Signing Babies have a much wider and more advanced vocabulary at a younger age. You’re constantly talking to them and interacting with them, and it’s so beautiful!

Signing with your baby reduces the frustration, tantrums and tears (for both of you!) that arise because you can’t understand each other. Which leaves more time and energy for fun things, like tea parties and cupcakes!

Children love sharing their world with us, and are far more observant than we realise. Teaching them how to sign opens up an entirely new conversation with them long before they’re able to share their discoveries with us in words. Wouldn’t you love to know what excites you child? What scares them or makes them happy? With signing, they can tell you! Isn’t that wonderful!

Children love to explore their world, there is so much to see, touch, taste, hear and smell. They love nothing more than sharing that excitement with us, but babies get frustrated when they can’t share a new discovery with us. By teaching them how to sign we open up a whole new world of fun for them!
Signing babies are able to tell us what they have seen, inviting us to have a small glimpse into their world. Double tap if you have always wondered what your baby was seeing or enjoying, but you couldn’t figure out what it was!

There are so many benefits to teaching your baby how to sign, but it's even more beneficial when you start teaching them from a young age - we recommend around 6 months.
Here are our reasons why:
*Prevents frustration
*Empowers Baby
*Helps Baby to differentiate between different objects / animals
*Encourages beautiful manners from before they can speak
*Creates special bonding between baby and parents / child minders
*Research indicates that signing babies score higher on intelligence tests, understand more words, have larger vocabularies, and engage in more sophisticated play.
*YOU will feel more relieved and empowered when you understand exactly what baby needs from you

Today I want to share a bit of background of Signing Baby - it was originally owned by my special mom, Yogie.
My mom ran a beautiful playschool in Durban for 25 years, and in this time she realised how much easier it was to communicate with the children through signing.
The benefit was seen when children were managing to seemlessly communicate their needs with staff and friends through sign, even when they were still learning to speak. The level of frustration was significantly lowered, therefore creating a far more harmonious environment for all of the children, and teachers, at school.
I could not wait to implement this lifestyle into my own home when I became a Mom, and my girls took to it beautifully. It quickly became a way of life and helped us tremendously with recognising what they needed.
When my mother retired, I was super excited to take over this wonderful business and to share in the joy that I've witnessed it bring to so many families over the years.
