"The best thing about being certified by SignShine is the connection to greatness; the SignShine family is an intelligent, compassionate, and loving group of people who agree that communication is the key.
Each member of the SignShine team has a unique passion that they bring. My contribution to the team stems from my gift of movement and love for ASL; the language, the grammar, the expressiveness, and the overall visual beauty.
At SignShine we help to facilitate communication between parents and their babies/children, while encouraging positive patterns of parenting skills. For every action that a parent does with their baby throughout the day, they learn signs to connect and communicate.
What I like most about SignShine's curriculum is the correlation of daily routines and important baby signs~ all taught in a fun, colorful, musical way

"The best thing about being a SignShine Certified instructor is that it gives you credibility in a world where credentials are rare. It means you have achieved a level of expertise that not only is recognized but respected by clients, other instructors and professionals. The thing I loved most about the curriculum is that it allowed you to be who you are as a person and educator and it was adaptable. If you have a 6 wk session instead of 8 wks you could adjust and still get all the info in that you want to teach. I also liked that all the lessons were broken down simply and easily led the group into important conversations about parenting and how to incorporate signing into day to day life. Most of all, they were fun to teach and allowed me to teach tools that can make parenting easier.
Let's face it, raising kids is hard and giving them and their parents tools to make it easier made my heart soar. My passion is children and watching that little light go off in their head when they would realize that they could let their needs be known was such a personal reward. My experience teaching with SignShine was my most fulfilling and fun time of my life career-wise. Their support, availability to answer questions and let me pick their brains was priceless. Oh, how I miss teaching with SignShine"
