I know what your newborn baby is trying to tell you! Do you want to know too?
I’m making plans for Infant Communication workshops and English Language Courses online and in Geneva. Now that we’ve been in Switzerland for a couple of months I’m turning my attention back to my passion – supporting international families with raising multilingual children from birth.
When we were expecting our first baby we knew that we really wanted him to be trilingual. But we didn’t know many people raising their children with 3 languages. And we didn’t really know how to do it. What if it was too difficult or stressful for our son? Or what if we confused him?
I researched baby sign language a lot. We tried different methods for implementing it. Finally we figured out the best way to use it as a multilingual family and my Infant Communication Method started to form.
After 7 years of teaching this method online and in the Netherlands I am confident that it will work for your family too.
‘Infant Communication just becomes part of your routine. When I say ‘play’ I use the symbol. The rest happens like magic if you just consistently use it in your routine. But it has helped a lot of frustration and it is just magical to see how quickly these young children learn to communicate’.
