Meet your instructor!
Hi, I'm Beth! I'm a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist with five years of experience helping children develop speech, language, and early communication skills. I'm also a mom to a curious 2-year-old and a creative 7-year-old, so I understand both the joys and challenges of supporting little ones as they learn and grow.
Through Happy Talk Song & Sign, I combine my professional expertise with the power of music, movement, play, and connection to create engaging classes that nurture early communication. I believe parents are a child's first and most important teacher, and I love equipping families with simple, evidence-based strategies they can use every day to support their child's development.

Have questions?

Siblings over the age of four are welcome to come into the class space and do a quiet activity.
Siblings within the age range are welcome as long as there is room in the class. If the class is filling up I will reach out to let you know that there will be a 50% fee for the second child.
Please reach out if you have more than one child before registering, so we can help you choose the best option for your family!

Every child is unique, and I would love to help you find the class that's the best fit. If your child has a communication or developmental delay, please reach out before registering so we can discuss their strengths, needs, and communication level. Together, we will determine which class will provide the most supportive and enjoyable experience while ensuring all children can participate safely and engage in activities that are appropriate for their developmental level.

That's completely okay! Happy Talk classes are designed to be flexible and welcoming for every child and their unique needs. There is no expectation that children sit still or participate in every activity. Some children love to jump right in, while others prefer to watch and observe for a few classes before joining in and both are wonderful ways to learn.
Children gain so much simply by being exposed to language, music, signs, and watching others participate. Even if your child is exploring the space, observing from your lap, or taking their time to warm up, they are still learning.
If your child needs a snack, wants to nurse or have a bottle, or simply needs a break, please feel free to stay within the group and continue enjoying the class. My goal is to create a relaxed, supportive environment where children and caregivers feel comfortable, connected, and free to participate in the way that works best for them.

For each eight-week session, I will hold two giveaway lotteries for community members. One lottery will be strictly for children who qualify for speech and language services and will be done privately and the other will be for anyone who wants to enter the giveaway program through Instagram.
You can use discount code firstclass15 for a 15% off discount code. If you and a friend want to sign up at the same time you can use the code friend50 for 50% off of the class you take together. Just mention their name in the sign up form at check out.
I also offer a 10% discount for families who re-enroll in my classes. Each class can be taken more than once and repeating them greatly benefits all children.
