The Speech and Language Garden
The toddler years are some of the most important of your child’s life. It is the foundation of their development for their learning years in the years to come. As a parent, we must cultivate the soil, making it rich enough to plant the seeds for your child’s feeding, play, language, and speech to Grow. The garden of learning is not possible without Nutritious soil to grow your child into a beautiful and productive flower.
Feeding
Babies are born and innately start eating from the bottle. Then they transition to solids to join the family at the table for meals. Sometimes this process doesn’t go as expected. Our expertise will customize in simple steps how to successfully go from bottle feeding to solids. We want you to enjoy the time with your child and not struggle or fight with them trying to provide them with their most essential need.
Play
Play is one of the most important skills your child can engage in to cultivate their development in many areas. Through various types of play, children learn to discover, create, and problem solve in their environment. As children grow and mature, their play skills also change, allowing for the development of new skills that are more varied and complex. Language and play go hand in hand.
Language
