Baby Signs Australia is borne from the passion of two Queensland mums who have experienced firsthand the benefits of communicating with their babies using the worlds original Baby Signs® Program.

In 2005 Janine Burden decided to introduce the Baby Signs® program to Australian and New Zealand families armed with the knowledge that this program was developed by child experts, Drs. Linda Acredolo & Susan Goodwyn and is backed by their 25 years of research.  

Her interest for the program continued on a personal level when in 2006 she had her second child Grace, who learnt to “talk” using the Baby Signs® program.  “This experience not only strengthened my belief for the program but gave me an unshakable conviction that bringing this world renowned program to Australian families was the right decision”.

In 2007 Drs. Linda Acredolo & Susan Goodwyn invited Janine to become an International Director and she benefited from personal and specialist training from the founders of the Baby Signs® movement in their home town in Vacaville, California.

Tamara Hamilton joined as a Director of the Baby Signs® Company in 2009.  Her passion for the original Baby Signs® program was a result of personal success in using the Baby Signs® program with her two sons.  "My enthusiasm for this program and being able to enrich the parent/child bond drove me to become more involved in the company and its growth within Australia. I have seen the positive results first hand and am dedicated to sharing them with other Australian families."
