Do you use any "baby speak" sign languages with a small child in your life? Which do you use?

I use traditional ASL. By simply associating the sign with the spoken word while interacting with the child will help them to learn it. Language for a while, at the beginning is simply a conditioning response. Be sure to use positive reinforcement while teaching, and especially when the child learns the new sign/word. Good Luck!

I do not use sign language, but I never use "baby speak" with children. I see no point in teaching a child the wrong words for things just to correct them a few years later.
