Parent Language: About Us

About Us

Parent Language was started by Tammy Young, an adoptive mom
of two. After adopting a child of four who did not speak English,
Tammy was inspired to help others who are adopting children
internationally. "My son picked up English incredibly quickly. I just
wish we'd been able to communicate more easily during the first
few, formative weeks."

Tammy holds a B.A. from Middlebury College and M.A. from Yale
Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in East Asian Studies. She
has worked in education as a teacher of Japanese and ESL, and
in software consulting, heading up project management and quality
assurance groups. She is also a member of the Board of Directors
of the Kazakh Aul of the United States, Association for American
and Kazakh Families.

Parent Language is located in Enfield, Connecticut. Feel free to
