The revolution that is baby signing is spreading quickly and more and more parents are eager to provide their children with this unique chance to be able to communicate before they are physically capable of using spoken language.

Teaching baby signing is rewarding, ideal for those who want to work in a flexible career, where they are in control and where they keep the profits from their own endeavours.

If you are thinking about becoming a Baby Signing Tutor you might want to consider the following:

  • Do you love working with children?
  • Do you want to make a difference to communication skills in your area?
  • Do you enjoy meeting new people and talking to them?
  • Do you want a lucrative career which you can fit around your life?
  • If you have answered yes to at least two of these questions then becoming a tutor in baby signing could be for you.

If you would like to go ahead you can choose to attend one of our courses or train at home - both options cost the same £275 +VAT and include the following:

  • Firstly and most importantly extensive support and encouragement - we are always happy to answer your questions and give you advice via either the telephone or email whenever you need it - prior - during - and after the setting up of your classes.
  • A license for one individual to teach as many sessions in as many locations as you like, using our materials and branding.
  • A full training course via DVD - everything we cover on our UK based training courses in DVD format. Sing along to our songs whilst practising the signs as many times as you need to. Please remember that everything feels strange the first time you do it, students usually need to practise the songs and signs at least five times before the feel comfortable with them.
  • Bespoke songs - especially written for our baby signing programme, containing key words not usually found in traditional children's songs, yet maintaining a sense of both fun and engagement.
    A manual - containing not only the signs and songs (great for ease of reference in the middle of a session) but also all of the theoretical information you will need to ensure your sessions are a success.
  • 20 CDs for resale to parents - parents want to be able to practise the knowledge they have gained in your sessions at home - what better way than through a professionally branded CD.
  • 2 Parent DVDs – parents often want to share their knowledge with other family members, these DVDs are a great way of enabling them to do so.
    No ongoing fees - we are not a franchise, once you are trained the profits you earn are yours to keep.

Facts & Figures

Many people are sceptical about baby signing, however we feel the following statistics speak for themselves:

At 24 months, signing-babies were found to talk on average more like 27- or 28-month-olds. This represents more than a three-month advantage over the non-signing babies.

In addition, the 24-month-old signing babies were putting together significantly longer sentences.

At 36 months the signing-babies on average were talking like 47-month-olds, putting them almost a full year ahead of their average age-mates.

By the age of eight, children who had learned to sign as babies had an average IQ of 114 compared to an IQ of 102 for those that didn't.
