Moving to NY

I accepted a job in NY and will be moving at the end of the year. I'll be in the lower NY area, close to the NJ border. I don't plan to actively pursue classes for a while, but I may have some time in the evenings or weekends if there is a lot of interest. Please contact me if you're interested and we can figure out the details.

FREE Baby Sign Language Intro - NLR, Nov. 13th

This one-hour introduction will tell you about the benefits of signing with your baby or older child. Children who sign often speak and read earlier, have larger vocabularies, and have higher IQs. It's great for children of all ages, including those with special needs. You'll learn some signs to get started now, and you can pick up information on low-cost classes in your area.

Saturday, Nov. 13, from 3 to 4 pm, at the Glenview Recreation Center in North Little Rock.

Contact by email at comesignwithjessica@gmail.com or look for Come Sign With Jessica on facebook!

Parents may attend with or without children.
