Birth to Three Years Old
First, take a deep breath. You can do this!
If you found us here, you probably just learned something about your baby or child’s hearing.
Whether your child was just identified with a hearing difference, or you are just going through the testing, or you are a seasoned parent just looking for support & information to help your child thrive, welcome!
This is a place where we focus on what we can do as parents to help our kids succeed. We want that child of yours to change the world, our world. Colorado Hands & Voices (or COH&V) is a nonprofit made up of parents just like you. We collaborate with Deaf /Hard of Hearing adults and like-minded professionals who share our belief that “What works for your child is what makes the choice right,” which has been our motto for the last 30 years.
Here you will find practical and sometimes inspiring information to guide you in parenting your own child.
Go take a look in the mirror. You are the right parent for your child. You can do this and there’s a whole community here to help!
Below you will find a plethora of resources at your fingertips to start you on your journey. This can be a lot to absorb all at once, but we have trained Parent Guides, or Guide By Your Sides, to help you navigate through all of this. Just visit our GBYS section.
