About Us

We created this website because there is so much information that you should know as a parent. However, how would you know where to look, when you don’t know what you don’t know. We are here to provide a service to help you. We want to equip you with a basic understanding of a world that you are now apart of. So instead of jumping straight into the deep end, we are going to wade your through the shallows first.

There is no One way

Through your journey you will hear that there is only one way. That is not true. The most important thing to remember is to give your child language. Them having a language, weather spoken or sign, gives them the ability to communicate and hit those milestones. Every child is different and will have different circumstances on what will be the best way.
