Baby Signs and Mother’s Circle Group

Join us for our weekly Mother’s Circle as we discuss the ups and downs of new motherhood, listen and respond to post partum questions, and get a great lesson from Jessica Sanders, sign language instructor, about baby sign basics.

When is the right time to start using sign language with your baby? What signs do you start with? What are the benfits of this type of communication? Come and find out.

This is a sliding scale group for mother’s facilitated by Kelly Larson Brown as well as other doulas from Homegrown Babies, Lisa Hicks (Registered Yoga Teacher and Holistic Health Counselor), and various other Mama’s in our village. Our donations for the month of May will benefit earthquake victims in Ecuador via UNICEF.

Learn more via https://www.unicefusa.org/

Jessica Sanders is a graduate of Gardner-Webb University (class of 2010) with a Bachelor of Arts in American Sign Language. She has been working with deaf students in Elementary schools for over five years. She has a one year old son who thinks it’s funny when Mommy signs. He knows a few words.
