In what ways is development of deaf and hard-of-hearing babies and toddlers like that of those with typical hearing? What specific challenges are likely to be faced by child and parent - and when are they most likely to occur? What modifications in parenting and caregiver interaction can help or avoid these challenges?

A strong, supportive foundation for optimal learning is achieved from early, positive, and responsive experiences. With Nurturing Language and Learning, Patricia Elizabeth Spencer and Lynne Sanford Koester provide the expert information and guidelines needed for professionals and parents in order to build that critical foundation.
Industry Reviews
"The strength of this book comes through in the underlying messages that underpin effective early intervention in deaf education. The authors consistently emphasize the importance of meeting individual needs, supporting and empowering families, and the parent-child relationshipEL As a hearing professional, I found these intuitive visual communication strategies fascinating and could identify deaf children with hearing parents that would hugely benefit in this wayEL I imagine this book becoming a key text for Deaf Education programs as well as an informative read for parents and other professionals new to the subject. The content is thorough and effectively bridges the gap between research and practice." -Suzanne Williams, review in Deafness & Education International
