The Baby Sign Language System: Baby’s 50 First Words through Sign Language
Good communication is vital for any child’s success. Did you know that babies should learn to speak 50 words by their second birthday and that speech delays are a major cause of tantrums and problem behaviors in young children? Teaching your infant Baby Sign Language not only provides the educational foundations for a second language, it also boosts their communication skills and can help them meet traditional speech milestones at an earlier age. My online course, The Baby Sign Language System: Baby’s 50 First Words through Sign Language, is an easy one stop resource to jump start your child’s foundations in Baby Sign Language by teaching you through a system, the 50 most useful signs for you and your baby.
Testimonials
Dr. Andrea has been our family pediatrician for 4 years. We are welcoming our 3rd baby to the family this winter and we feel so grateful for Dr. Andrea’s compassion, extensive knowledge base, and her love of children. She supported us through breastfeeding complications, multiple illnesses and is always open to any questions we have. We love seeing her and feel so comfortable with the excellent care she provides. We would follow her anywhere!
I can’t describe the relief I feel after she sees my little ones and outlines a treatment plan. Or the calm she brings to a new mother by managing expectations for benchmarks. I have trusted the lives of my most valuable possessions to her exclusively because from day one, she has proven her skill, bedside manner and passion from when I was first even coming to terms with the responsibilities of motherhood. She is one in a million!
Dr. Andrea immediately made me feel comfortable. She was so knowledgeable and interacted with me in a way that alleviated my anxieties and made me comfortable asking questions. I could not be more grateful for her! When we changed doctors to Dr. Andrea, she stepped in perfectly where our previous Pediatrician left off and didn’t miss a beat, which speaks to her adaptability, flexibility, and professionalism. All of our kids will be seeing her!
