Mama, I’m just reconfirming your inner knowing that no one knows better than you when your toddler needs help to start talking 🙌🏼& how important it is to you that you get them support 𝐍𝐎𝗪
If your child is not saying as many words as they should or communicating effectively with you….
And you’re noticing they have started doing things like ⬇️
🚨 having more tantrums
🚨 hitting themselves or others
🚨 hitting their head on the floor or a wall,
🚨 biting others
🚨 any other negative behavior that’s not typical for them…
But every time you talk about getting support you have well intentioned friends, family, spouses, pediatricians, loved ones, etc. telling you now is not the time to invest in support and you should just wait and see if they catch up…🤦🏻♀️
Then here’s your reminder from a certified Speech-Language Pathologist who’s been in this field for 7+ years… 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝 so that they can…
💯clearly communicate with you without getting frustrated and
💯feel confident in their communication skills that by the time they get to pre-k or kindergarten they actually know how to tell new people like peers & teachers what they want & need 💥🎉👏🏼
