About Me
My Sing and Sign Journey
Hello! My name is Sarah, and I'd love to meet you in a Sing and Sign class.
I attended Sing and Sign classes with my 2 boys (now aged 13 and 9). We absolutely loved it! Both of the boys enjoyed the singing, instrument playing, and of course seeing Jessie Cat. But we also found it really useful as we learned our signs together. Dylan and Ryan were both able to express themselves and let us know what they needed and wanted long before they could talk. It was great to see Dylan recalling all of his signs once his brother started to sign, so that the 2 of them could communicate easily before Ryan could talk.
So, when the opportunity arose for me to become a Sing and Sign teacher, I jumped at the chance! I started teaching in September 2016, and I love it. It's fabulous to see all the little faces so excited when Jessie Cat pops out of the box. And when they find their hands and begin to sign, it's such a proud moment for everyone.
So, if you'd like to find out more about baby signing classes and the Sing and Sign approach, there's lots of information on this and the next few pages. Or you can fill in the form below to contact me.

For the Spring 2024 term, you can also learn from home with our award-winning Sing and Sign @ Home programme for Stage 1 and Stage 2 classes. Here are some details:
- 10 structured, 30 minute, age appropriate classes to enjoy over a 10 week period starting Monday 18th September. Each week covering a theme and gradually building your signing knowledge
- Sing and Sign @ Home is not 'live'. Meaning you can stream the class any time of the day, as many times as you like for a whole week
- Sing and Sign @ Home is something for you to DO with your child - not just a film to watch on screen. Get down on the living room floor and ENJOY quality time, music and fun together!
- You will be supported by my weekly newsletter on the theme and signs of the week, and you can contact me directly to ask questions and get baby signing advice from me
- Access will be through the Sing and Sign Website. You can watch on phone, laptop or tablet and cast to your Smart TV - any device that can stream via an internet connection!

More Info
Spring 2024 - Venue classes and Sing and Sign @ Home available!
Join me in a class in Spring! There are venue based Stage 1 and Stage 2 classes across the county where you can come and sing and sign with me. Each week there's a fun-packed class with a new theme. We cover mealtimes, bath and bed time, nappy changing, asking for help, colours, the weather, phonics and lots more throughout our 10 weekly classes.
Did you know that I include online membership with my Sing and Sign classes, so Sing and Sign @ Home is INCLUDED with all Stage 1 and Stage 2 venue classes with me and Jessie Cat :) So you can recap the signs and songs you learn in each class with a new pre-recorded class each week, that you can watch as many times as you like, and whenever you like!
Or (for babies 6 months and under) choose from one of our Sing and Sign Babes classes! A lovely gentle relaxed class, where we learn some important early signs, and cover the foundational elements of face-to-face communication. Sing and Sign Babes Online membership is included in your venue-based course too. There's a pre-recorded class and music to stream each week so that you can practice the elements that we've covered in class at home :)
Our Spring 2024 term starts on Monday 8th January. Book now using the button, or get in touch if you have any questions.
Here's a little taster of our Sing and Sing @ Home programme:
