In Person at JCC Harlem. Baby class (expectant moms, newborn and up) – we’ll set the foundation for early language development and grown-up/child bond through songs, stories, and daily routines.
Sign language support will be a key element in this class in addition to social support and active learning in a way that feels natural. Repetition will be important! Not sure which class is best for you? ASK – Leah is happy to help guide you – or sign up for the time that works best for your family. You’ll learn and have fun in either one!

Can't do the full season? Drop-in for $35 per class with a valid credit/debit card.
