Marlee Matlin is settling into her newest role — grandma! Attending the Media Access Awards in Hollywood, Calif., on Tuesday, Oct. 29, the actress, 59, shared what it's been like as she's transitioned to being a grandma to her daughter Sarah Rose Grandalski's daughter Brooklyn Rose, whom she welcomed in late April. "I love it. The thing I think I love the most is being able to just give her oodles of kisses every day and then just give her back to her mother and not have to worry about everything like when I was a mom," Matlin shares with PEOPLE. "I can't wait to teach her, to show her everything about life and to be able to sign with her, which is what I'm doing now. Not teach sign language, but just to communicate in sign language," she adds.Never miss a story — sign up for PEOPLE's free daily newsletter to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.

This past December, the Oscar-winner announced that her daughter was pregnant with a baby girl in a cute Instagram video. In the post, Matlin's older daughter walked past her, and then the actress took her daughter's wrist and pulled her closer, rubbing her growing belly. She then signed "It's a girl" in American Sign Language. "We've been promoted to GRANDPARENTS!" she captioned the video.
