Who Can Join My Baby Fingers ASL and Music Classes?

Updated

My Baby Fingers is designed for both Deaf and hearing participants of all ages, not just babies. According to the site, its ASL and music sessions are offered in person and live online, and are tailored for Deaf and hearing people across age groups, with the goal of fostering language development, creativity, and connection. If you are looking for a program that goes beyond "baby sign language" and welcomes mixed hearing status and mixed ages, it is likely a fit. If you need a program exclusively for infants, or one limited to a specific age bracket, you should confirm the current class schedule before enrolling.

Who the program is for

The site describes its audience in broad terms:

  • Deaf and hearing participants — both groups are explicitly included, so classes are not segregated by hearing status.
  • All ages — the wording is "all ages," which means the offering is not restricted to babies or toddlers.
  • Families and individuals — the emphasis on "connection" suggests a format where caregivers, siblings, or individual learners can take part.

This matters if you have been searching for "baby sign language" and found only infant-focused courses. My Baby Fingers positions itself as more than that.

What the classes involve

The two core elements named on the site are:

Element What it means for participants
ASL American Sign Language instruction, accessible to Deaf and hearing learners
Music Music-based sessions, used alongside ASL

The stated outcomes are language development, creativity, and connection. The site also stresses that the sessions are inclusive, engaging, and accessible.

Delivery formats

Classes are available in two formats:

  • In person
  • Live online

Both formats are described as live, so this is not a self-paced recorded course. If you need asynchronous material, that is not what is described here.

How to decide if it fits

Ask yourself these questions:

  1. Is the participant Deaf, hearing, or in a mixed group? Both are welcome, so no adjustment is needed.
  2. Is the learner a baby, a child, a teen, or an adult? The site says all ages, but you should still check which specific class level matches the learner's age and signing experience.
  3. Do you want live interaction? Yes — both in-person and online options are live.
  4. Are you looking for ASL alone, or ASL plus music? The program combines both.

What to verify before signing up

The site mentions a "subscribe" option, but the available information does not list prices, payment platforms, or whether a trial is offered. Before committing:

  • Confirm the current schedule for in-person and live online classes.
  • Ask which age ranges each class actually serves, since "all ages" may be split into separate groups.
  • Check whether a subscription is required and what it includes.
  • Confirm accessibility accommodations for Deaf participants if that is your situation.
