About Me
Hello!
By being here, you are doing something wonderful for your baby and family: developing your little one's early communication. We hope to meet you and your baby soon.
Our new term starts 6th September
Most of our Stage 1 and 2 classes are full though there may still be a couple of spots left. If you have missed out on your favourite class, you can still join our class@home programme which includes the full class content for the duration of the term. You can enjoy this from the comfort of your home at any time during this period. It is also worth popping your name down on the interest list too so you will hear about next term as soon as it opens!
Our Babes classes for those under 6 months start a little later so we still have spots in these and a few trial spaces too. These are bookable here.
Stage 1 is for 6-12 month olds, Stage 2 is for 13-24 month olds and both are 10 week programmes.
Our Babes class starts 2 weeks later and is for those under 6 months. This is an 8 week term for the full term and reduced as the term goes on.
For our Autumn term, all classes have an extra included class for the festive season!
Our class-based terms also include access to our award-winning online platform, on-demand lessons for those at home and for Stages 1 and 2, a fortnightly zoom. This has been updated, is now easier to access and has more content to help support the Sing and Sign journey at home too.Our Babes programme also have their own online support with mini lessons and insights from speech and language experts.

Read what one of our happy families wrote:
'If there is one thing you do with your child, make sure it is Sing and Sign. The session is enormously enjoyable, whilst sneakily teaching your small person lots of skills (tidying up, sharing, communicating, & socialising as well as signing), all hidden within familiar tunes and lots of laughter. I am coming to the end of my third term with my two year old and I will miss it greatly! This has been the friendliest and most lovingly-held space within which L. has flourished greatly. We both leave taking many good friends with us. What a treat it has been to relax and let the teacher take the reigns once a week!'
About Me
I am Tess and I came to teach Sing and Sign 7 years ago after it had a profoundly positive impact on my family. I feel so passionate about baby signing, it’s wonderful to be able to share it and see the benefits in our families.
I attended 9 terms in total with my two children and as well as the enormous fun they had in the classes, it shaped our relationships and we are still seeing the benefits years later of that early communication in their language and communication skills.
I hope you have the same experience and look forward to seeing you and your little one soon,
Tess

More Info
What will you learn at Sing and Sign?
Sing and Sign is a fantastic activity to do with your baby! We teach baby signing alongside music, rhymes and games in our venue based classes, online and in nurseries.
> You will learn over 100 signs in each stage to help you connect and communicate with your baby.
> You will discover new songs and games to help make every part of your day together fun.
> Your baby will learn to engage and socialise with others whilst learning life skills such as making friends, helping others, taking turns and of course, communicating.
> It is so special when your baby first tells you something through signing - whether it is naming a favourite animal or asking for 'milk' and a bite to 'eat'! You will also meet other parents from your area with babies of a similar age. Some lifelong friends have been made at our classes!!
>Your baby will love listening to the singing, engaging with the teacher, playing the instruments and interacting with the other children - and Jessie Cat!
My families tell me over and over again how much they enjoy our classes and how beneficial signing has been for them. We are lucky to have welcomed back many families with their new babies so we know we must be doing something right!
Everyone has fun at Sing and Sign: they are special musical classes with a BIG difference!
In-person classes:
If you can make the classes in person, this is a brilliant way to meet friends, become a part of a community and help your baby socialise. We are all about human connection and babies and toddlers really benefit from the class environment and experiencing all the things that help build early communication.

What is Sing and Sign CLASS@HOME?
Most of our families enjoy class based lessons. Class@Home is included with these but is also a stand-alone option if you can't make classes. They are part of our wider Jessie Cat Club online platform also included.
A preview of our fabulous Sing and Sign Class@Home is below. This wonderful resource is a programme of 10 pre-recorded lessons, available on demand with unlimited viewing during the term You can make Sing and Sign Class@Home part of your daily routine!
Filmed by Sing and Sign teachers across the country, the magic of Sing and Sign comes home in 10 weekly, themed online sessions. The online class feels very much like your in person class following the usual format with familiar songs, felt board, instruments and of course Jessie Cat playing peek-a-boo!
If you are not a fan of screens for little ones, you can watch the class without your baby first to see the signs then send the audio through a speaker and sing along with your baby!
These online classes are also great for those returning to work, families who can't find a suitable day, or even those Stage Two graduates who don't want to give up just yet as there is no age limit on our classes@home!
We also have interactive zoom classes every other Saturday during term time so those just doing the class@home can still join in with our teachers and other babies!
