A Note From Tina
We Leaped out of February into March!

March is one of my favorite months with St. Patrick's Day and Easter. Watching little bitty kids find their first Easter egg is the best. Easter is all things that represent new beginnings and I'm all about the new beginning.

 

I love me some St. Patrick's Day too being Irish and all. Here's a shot of BeeBo in his outfit. You should have seen his Mardi Gras!


P.S. Don't forget Daylight Savings Time is this month too - "Spring Forward" an hour on Mar. 13th!

Happy Signing,

Tina

Special Addition

Have a brand new little one or one on the way? This store has everything for the whole journey! They have classes for breastfeeding, infant safety, mental health during and after pregnancy, and even preparation for returning to work! And of course I teach a couple of classes there too (sibling and tummy time). Everything you can think of that's needed for your pregnancy is there too from gorgeous, high quality clothing, bras and lingerie, infant clothes and accessories and even those yummy cookies to help you make more breast milk! How cool is that?!? Even gear for dads and herbs and teas. I'm not kidding, they have it all. Watch the video in the lower left corner of their website home page to see what I mean. Did I mention they even have the most comfortable gliders for the baby room you've ever seen?

And the staff are all very kind, sensitive and knowledgeable about all the products and services. Tell Rachel, Debbie, Christina or Kristen that Tina sent you and I'll give you a discount on one of my classes.

Coming Up Soon!

About Tina
Are you the parent of a baby or toddler and you are frustrated and overwhelmed because you can't understand what your child needs or wants?

Baby SignsŪ Instructor Tina Cavanaugh is here to help you break the communication barrier! With a few signs, babies as young as seven or eight months are able to express their needs, wants, feelings and even memories. Doing this strengthens the infant/parent bond early and gives your child a jump-start toward speaking and early literacy.

With 10 years of sign language training and five years teaching Baby Signs classes, Tina shows parents how to be amazed and thrilled over and over as their baby or toddler begins to share their world with them. Being involved in a process that builds confidence and good self-esteem early in children is huge and the stories that parents share with Tina about their success is pure joy for her.

The play classes go far beyond just learning a few signs. Parents go home with information about how their baby learns and develops intellectually and emotionally through those all-imporant first few years of their lives. Come join the fun that everyone's talking about!
