Let’s Talk Why We Shouldn’t “Wait and See”…

While some well-meaning individuals suggest a wait-and-see approach for late talkers, researchers have found that delaying treatment for a late talker can result in a missed opportunity.

We recommend trusting your parental instincts and seeking out a speech and language screening if you have any questions or doubts about your child’s speech and language development.
