About Us

Visually Speaking was founded by Melissa “Echo” Greenlee in Seattle, Washington. Her program originated as a means to jump-start the communication process between babies and parents, teaching Sign Language to pre-verbal hearing infants. It wasn’t long before she expanded her curriculum to include teaching toddlers and pre-school children.

Visually Speaking incorporates many ideas and methods, including those from SIGN with your BABY™ a program established by child development researcher Joseph Garcia. Children of all ages will quickly be empowered with a new way to express their wants, needs and thoughts. We work hard to give parents and caregivers the skills to effectively communicate with their pre-verbal infants and make learning a second language fun for the older ones.

Being a deaf owned and operated business, we offer a unique combination of cultural and educational experiences. Committed to spreading Sign Language to people in all walks of life, Visually Speaking encourages you to join us!
