Baby & Me teaches you how to help your newborn develop his or her communication skills through auditory awareness and spoken language. Held weekly for 1 to 2 hours, each session revolves around everyday life experiences that involve you and your child.
Also included are individual modules on:
Language, speech and auditory therapy
Cochlear implant and hearing aid training
Audiological education and management
Parent support and caregiver workshops
Throughout the program, you’ll work closely with every department at CCHAT to ensure your infant receives comprehensive exposure to a broad range of learning environments and situations. Baby & Me is staffed by parent/infant advisors who hold advanced degrees and are experts in pedagogical instruction for newborns who are deaf and hard of hearing.
Baby & Me actively involves educational and medical professionals who collectively monitor your child’s language development as he or she moves through the program. Baby & Me is parent-focused, child-driven and results-oriented to ensure your newborn receives the requisite foundation for lifelong learning and growth.
Enrollment is open to all babies (aged 0 to 18 months) and their primary caregivers. Participation can begin immediately after early diagnosis from your newborn’s hearing test.
