Early Childhood Educator Training Center Certification Program
Signing with babies is growing in popularity among directors of child care programs. To service this trend, the Baby Signs® Program has developed an Early Childhood Educator Curriculum to help large and small child care providers incorporate signing into their classrooms. We have worked with both Bright Horizons, Mini-Skools, and many other child development centers around the world, to help them add the Baby Signs® Program to their curricula.
This professional training is designed to give early childhood educators everything needed to teach the Baby Signs® Program to infants and toddlers in their centers.
One goal of this program is to help childcare programs of any size—big or small—begin enjoying the benefits of incorporating signing in to daily interactions between children and teachers. The other equally important goal is to help family service agencies (such as nonprofit organizations, hospitals, nanny agencies, child care resources, referral services, etc.) learn how to easily incorporate the Baby Signs® Program into their early childhood and parenting programs and their community outreach efforts.
