Hello and welcome to TinyTalk Leicester. I am Heather the TinyTalk Baby Signing and Toddler Talk teacher for Leicester.
I first learned about baby signing when I was pregnant with Azad. Azad is 4 years old and the fun we have had with signing has been fantastic. I have four children in all but I did not know the benefits of baby signing with my older three.
I have been signing with Azad since
day one but more seriously from when he was four months old. Azad was able to understand some signs but did not do his first sign until around 7 months old when he signed more. At 11 months old Azad would point to a flower and attempt the sign, he would pronounce the sound for b and sign bird I was able to tell if he meant bird, burn or bye from his signs as he will always attempt to say the word as well.
On the way to becoming a TinyTalk teacher I taught a couple of toddlers some signs to help their speech and because of their fantastic signing they have been much happier being understood and their speech has improved also. Now I teach Toddler Talk too for the toddlers.
I have been teaching TinyTalk baby signing classes for just under three years and have some very happy parents.
TinyTalk classes are a fun hour with half an hour signing to a well structured class whilst singing popular nursery rhymes. The other half hour is for you to relax with a cup of tea or coffee whilst your baby can play. This is a great time to socialize with other like minded people and a great time to ask me any questions.
Once your baby out grows the baby class they are welcome to continue to a toddler class and start learning other thing that are linked with the eyfs.
