Hi! We're Becky & Louise,
Welcome to Signing Babies, Signing Toddlers and Signing Talkers
in Hitchin and Letchworth, Hertfordshire

 

As part of The Signing Company, we teach Signing for Babies, Signing for Toddlers and Signing for Talkers

at St Marks Church, the Signing Rooms in Hitchin and Mrs Howard Memorial Halls in Letchworth in Letchworth.

We also offer various adhoc holiday signing sessions too. For more information, see the timetable below. 

Sign language is an inspirational communication tool that has been used by Deaf people for centuries. So many

people say that they are captivated when they see sign language being used, and that they would dearly love to

possess this skill. The Signing Company was born out of desire to make this skill accessible to all, from babies to 101.

We believe that even with the most basic signing knowledge, everyone has the tools to communicate more effectively in

everyday life.  Moreover, when learning occurs in a fun and stimulating environment, then positive learning takes place.

Signing Babies with Becky & Louise

 

Our Signing Babies classes give you the opportunity to communicate and bond with your baby, through specially created songs and nursery rhymes, fun activities and bubbles!  We also have props including Signing Sam and Poppy the Mouse! Each session is based on a theme so you and the little ones are able to learn essential signs.

 

 

Signing Toddlers with Becky & Louise

 

As your child begins to develop speech and discover new words, Signing Toddlers explores and focuses on new key vocabulary to encourage their budding communication skills.

 

These Signing Toddlers classes give you the opportunity to expand on vocabulary through puppets, songs, fun activities and bubbles. We cover listening and turn-taking skills, emotional vocabulary, and much more.

Signing Talkers classes broaden your child’s confidence, listening and communication skills in preparation for preschool or nursery.

My classes focus on phonics, story-telling language, emotional vocabulary, basic math language and more. Including our ever-popular songs with Signing Sam, new easy to follow songs and not forgetting bubbles!

Becky

 

I am a native sign language user through proudly growing up with my twin sister who is profoundly Deaf. I am moderately Deaf. We used home signs to communicate as children and were introduced into the world of British Sign Language when we were 11 years old. This changed our world of communication forever.

I became a mum to 2 amazing children Jake, and Summer. Being a signer, I was keen to do signing classes with Jake and so signing classes were a thing we did together. This made me realise the importance of signing with children and ignited my desire to become a signing teacher! My daughter Summer came along and through signing, our communication abilities were astonishing!

 

Up until I had Summer, I worked in London as a Support Worker for the Deaf and gave up work in London as it was no longer financially viable – a classic scenario many parents face! This is when I come to realise that I could really do something with my sign language abilities and so I began running my classes in Hitchin and Letchworth. I had the joy of having Summer with me at my own classes! She was my little side-kick, enjoying and signing to the songs. They are both still signing now, especially when it comes to spellings from school!

I have been running baby and children's signing classes in Hitchin and Letchworth for 12 years along with running workshops and birthday parties too. I have loved every minute of it. I feel very privileged to give the gift of communication to families. This is why I started The Signing Company


British Sign Language (BSL) is a strong element in our lives, having used it all my life with my twin sister. I am NVQ level 4 (now level 6) in BSL trained.

I really enjoy working with Becky and everyone else at The Signing Company.  I have attended classes with my own children for long periods over the last 10 years and have achieved my BSL Level 1.  Sharing this wonderful world of communication with local families is truly wonderful. 

I first used signing during my teenage years when volunteering on a children’s play scheme during the school holidays and I have also used it on and off since then in my primary teaching career which has spanned over 20 years. I think that being able to communicate in this way is a fantastic skill to have had as a young adult and I feel that this was the start of my signing journey.

 

I am a mum of two lovely boys - Charlie, 10 years and Jasper, 4 years. I began signing with Charlie when he was 5 months old and attended many courses of Signing Babies and Signing Talkers with him. I would look forward to each week’s session and we absolutely loved every minute; learning new signs and having great fun with signing, singing, music, stories and much more. I believe that signing certainly helped Charlie with his communication and his speech developed very well at a young age. He has always been able to explain and express himself well. I have also attended classes with Jasper; Signing Babies, Signing Toddlers and Signing Talkers. I loved being back in classes with him and this really helped with his communication before he had developed his speech. By the time Jasper was 18 months, he could use well over 50 signs and understood many more. It was amazing to see his older brother being able to communicate with Jasper through signing as well as us as parents. Truly magical!


I really love being able to combine my teaching skills with my love of signing in such a positive and fun way, sharing this wonderful skill of communication with everyone who attends my classes.
