You've got a lot going on, but you can help your Late Talker gain more confidence communicating. 

...and you can learn how, just a little at a time.

Maybe you've been told to "wait and see" ("wait and worry??"), maybe you've got speech therapy but want to help your late talker at home too, maybe you are on one of those yearlong waitlists. 

You could wait.

You could worry.

but...

You are tired of waiting. You want to do more. You don't want to ring in spring wondering if you could have done "more" if your late talker could have learned "more" if things would have been different. You want to see them interacting with friends and family with more confidence and be understood better. You want to talk about how they are growing, not how they are “late."  

You are the solution. You're already your child's best teacher about life, and love, and the things that matter most. You just need tools for talking. 4 Simple Strategies is a training class to equip parents of late talkers with what you need to support speech therapy at home without adding to the overwhelm. Let’s give you the tools!

4 Simple Strategies will teach you the tools you need to support your Late Talker at home:

• 10 Weeks of:
  • encouragement that good parents have late talkers too
  • accountability and community, to keep you moving.
  • “how to” help for when others ask about your late talker and how to help your child connect when they are still growing words
  • getting your questions answered, ask by email and watch for your answer during the accessible anytime Q&A videos!
  • one easy lesson a week, that you can do while folding laundry.
  • know you are the secret sauce for amplifying success for your child, whether or not you have a super SLP and speech therapy too. You just need the right tools.

• 4 Simple Strategies: Be equipped with 4 strategies that speech language pathologists like me use to create an environment for word growth... with less frustration for the whole family. (And no, it's not to "read to your child more.") 
  • These are techniques that start working before a child uses words and can grow with your child's language even when they start using long sentences.
  • Simple to understand
  • Flexible: these strategies can be done from the couch, at a family gathering, doing dishes... without feeling like "therapy."

You and your child could be using these strategies to get a little language leap before spring... What could that look like for you?

When parents work to learn and use these strategies the first 10 weeks are the first encouraging look into the future.

As a certified speech language pathologist, I've worked with hundreds of families of late talkers and we usually see our first leap (or two) together during that first 10 weeks. That can look like:

• more gestures and sounds to communicate
• first words or more words
• start hearing phrases or short sentences
• start understanding what their child is saying more
• less frustration
• More confidence, more connection

"When parents work to learn and use these strategies the first 10 weeks are the first encouraging look into the future."

Some families have big leaps, others have smaller leaps, but the common factor is movement. There is nothing more encouraging than starting to see growth! I’d love to help you see that growth and have stories of growth to share at gatherings and be a reminder that growth is happening.

Here's how this works.

1. Sign up for the course. 
   
   
2. Receive emails that guide you each week and give you direct access to videos, lessons, refrigerator printout, encouragements, and links to Q&A sessions.
3. Watch your child grow!
