“My Hop to Signaroo ® classes have been an absolute joy and the highlight of my career as a teacher! I’ve been thrilled with the response I’ve received to my classes, presentations and materials. It’s been so gratifying to work with parents and babies and empower them with a skill that will strengthen their bond, promote early communication and reduce their frustration. I hope to meet you and your little one in a class soon.”
