Give the gift of communication and bond with your baby at Baby Fingers. Come sing & sign with us!  

About Baby Fingers Not your typical “baby sign language” program, our curriculum is rooted in real language and culture, supported by research and evidenced based practice, developed by a mom who is also an experienced music therapist and teacher of the Deaf. At Baby Fingers, our students of all ages are hearing and d/Deaf (capital D indicates cultural identity).
