Sing and Sign baby signing classes in... Solihull

• About Me

  Solihull Sing and Sign leader

  

  I have been teaching Sing and sign in Solihull since 2020 having previously attended with both my Daughters. We all love Jessie cat and still listen to our sing and sign CD regularly in the car! 

  For me Sing and Sign was a great way to get out and meet other new mums in the area. The friendships we made through the classes have lasted even after finishing lessons. My Eldest daughter who is now 6 still remembers the signs she learnt and uses them with her little sister who’s understanding of what we are doing is clearly enhanced when supported by signs and songs.

  As well as having attended Sing and Sign classes as a mum, I have also studied BSL level one and used sign language to support Deafblind children and adults as a volunteer.

  I’m really enjoying sharing my love of Sing and sign with a new generation and have already seen so many little babies grow into fun moving toddlers. I can’t wait to meet many more of you.

  The Sing and sign curriculum is available for babies aged 3 months to 2 years and covers 3 levels.

  Autumn term runs From 18th September
  

  Babes - 5 week block for £40 You can book your first class as a trial for £5. The fee includes 5 classes, and online members site access. 

  For 2-6 months, these classes build a foundation for communication through music and sensory activities. It is also a fun activity for careers and babies which will support the development of the bond between them. 

  In addition to helping you communicate with your little one classes are also a fantastic opportunity to meet other new parents and to share your joys and concerns.

  Stage one

  Online 10 weeks for £50

  The classes are available via a secure area on the Sing and sign website each weeks class is available for you to view as many times as you like for 7 days. It follows the same format as the live classes and will also have a brake for half term.

  Live classes 10 weeks for £80 (including the online programme and Gold membership) Running in Shirley, Marston Green, Dorridge, and Solihull

  For babies 6 -14 months. These classes deliver Baby signing in a fun interactive way covering signs for all the needs of your child, with over 100 signs over 10 weekly sessions we cover basic daily routines such as wanting milk, changing nappies and bath time. As well as signs for things that will interest your babies curiosity as they explore the world around them, animals, vehicles, toys etc

  Babies will soon become familiar with the structure of the class and anticipate the next activity. I strongly encourage replicating these activities at home with your little ones between classes as consistency of using the signs is key.

  Stage 2

Stage 2 classes follow a similar format to the Stage 1 for faniliarity but are more interactive for the older ones to engage with.

  Babies will soon become familiar with the structure of the class and anticipate the next activity. I strongly encourage replicating these activities at home with your little ones between classes as consistency of using the signs is key.
