Can babies really communicate before they can talk? In this episode, we dive into Amelia’s latest passion, learning to teach baby sign with Gabriel.

We talk about why baby sign isn’t just important for children with hearing difficulties, but something that can benefit all children. From improving communication and strengthening connection to helping babies express their needs earlier, we explore the surprising positives we’ve discovered along the way. We also share some of the first signs we’re teaching Gabriel, what we’ve learned so far, and whether we think it’s something more parents should consider.
