If there’s one thing I know for sure, working with toddlers can be a real challenge. Finding resources tailored specifically for early intervention and speech therapy clinicians is hard. When I started working in speech therapy for toddlers, I felt discouraged. [I mean, it’s not like we learn much about this population in SLP grad school… I sure didn’t] The toddlers on my caseload didn’t want to do the activities. They would run away during sessions, throw my toys, and try to eat books instead of reading them.
Then, parents started asking, “Why aren’t we seeing progress?”
Sound familiar? Well, guess what? The more SLPs, SLPCFs, and SLPAs I spoke with, the more I realized that most of us were struggling to understand toddler development at some point. We all needed help encouraging participation and figuring out how to monitor progress with this population.
Thus, the idea of Communicate & Connect was born.
