Interested in teaching parents of babies and toddlers to sign with their children? Or do you work in a childcare profession and want to increase communication with the babies and toddlers you work with? Then the IPSP™ Baby Sign Language course is for you!
Please note that although you will be learning signs of the American Sign Language, this course is intended for parents with hearing babies. This course does not qualify you to be an ASL instructor or interpreter.
Baby sign language helps a parent or caregiver communicate with the baby or toddler before they can even use words to speak.
Babies often cry to communicate, with baby sign language they have a way to express their needs. Baby sign language helps reduce frustration by allowing the baby to communicate with their parents and caregivers. This also means fewer tantrums!
Studies show babies who sign appear to have a larger vocabulary by age two, than babies that don't sign.
When teaching a baby to sign, you are being intuitive to what they are communicating. You are paying attention their needs more. This helps create a special bond.
