Toddler Development

If your toddler isn’t talking as much as expected, early support can make a big difference. Speech therapy provides targeted strategies to help children build their first words and communication skills during this important developmental stage. A family-centered approach—where parents and therapists work together—has been shown to create the best outcomes for language growth. If you have concerns about your child’s speech or language, a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist can evaluate their development and provide guidance and targeted strategies. Early support is key, and seeking help now can set the foundation for strong communication skills in the future.

Speech Clarity & Oral-Motor Therapy

Some children need more than traditional speech therapy to help them speak clearly. If your child struggles with certain sounds, drools frequently, breathes through their mouth, or has trouble coordinating their tongue and facial muscles, they may benefit from oral-motor therapy. This specialized, hands-on approach strengthens the muscles needed for clear speech, helping your child communicate more confidently.

Preschool, Pre-K & K

Young children learn best through connection, play, and meaningful interactions. Our therapy takes a whole-child approach, focusing on building relationships that naturally support language and communication. Sessions target key language skills like vocabulary, storytelling, sequencing, and grammar—helping children express themselves with confidence. Using a developmental approach, including DIR Floortime techniques, we emphasize emotional and social growth as the foundation for strong communication skills. By creating a supportive and engaging environment, we help children build the language they need to share their thoughts, ideas, stories, and imagination with the world.

Building Lifelong Language Skills

Between ages 1 and 5, children build the essential skills that lay the foundation for lifelong language skills. Every child develops language at their own pace and some need extra support to build the skills needed during this critical window of development. Whether your child is just starting to use words, struggling to form sentences, or having difficulty expressing their thoughts, stories, or ideas, speech therapy can help. Our goal is to help your child understand and use language in a way that feels natural to them so they can connect and share with the world around them.
