Our Story

From a Mother's Heart

I’m Juliane, the founder of Tid for Tegn, and I offer baby sign workshops in Bergen for parents and their little ones. My goal is simple: to help families experience calmer, clearer, and more connected communication from the very beginning.

Using signs with your baby is a powerful tool, not only before they start talking, but throughout those early language stages. Signing adds an extra layer of visual and movement-based input that supports understanding, reduces frustration, and strengthens your child’s ability to express themselves. It’s a fun, meaningful way to connect, and it’s becoming increasingly common in Norwegian barnehager as well.

As a trained special educator, I’ve long known the benefits of visual communication. But it was my own son who truly showed me its value. Long before he had words, he used signs to share his needs, his interests, and all the little things that mattered to him. Seeing him communicate so clearly at such a young age was an incredible experience, one that inspired me to bring this approach to other families.

Now, expecting my second child, I can’t imagine parenting without signs. And I’m here to support you in discovering the same joy and ease in your everyday routines.
