Delivered by Carolyn Webb - Senior Speech and Language Therapist, Parent Coach & Author
Early Intervention & Speech & Language Support

This session will provide parents and caregivers with four simple, evidence-based strategies that support early communication at home. Together we will explore how to follow your child’s lead, respond in ways that build confidence, model language naturally, and create short, repeatable games. These practical tools are easy to use in everyday routines and play, helping your child connect, interact, and communicate in meaningful ways.

Date: Tuesday 2nd of December
Time: 7:30pm – 9:00pm
Location: Online Via Zoom

Overview
This session aims to give parents and caregivers four practical strategies, grounded in evidence-based approaches, that can support early communication development within the home environment.

The presentation will highlight the key role of parent support, which research shows accounts for a significant proportion of communication progress in young children. With clear, structured strategies and when we understand why we use them, we can create more consistent and effective opportunities for communication growth.

The first strategy looks at what ā€œfollowing a child’s leadā€ really means in practice: tuning into what the child is attending to in the moment. Together, we will then explore how to respond in ways that affirm our children’s communicative attempts, building trust, confidence, and motivation to keep interacting. The third strategy focuses on how to model language effectively: providing short, natural phrases, sound effects, and comments that reflect the child’s perspective, with pauses to allow for processing time. Finally, we will see how to bring these strategies together in predictable, short repeatable games and routines, giving children the structure they need to understand language and the opportunities to use communication in meaningful ways.

By combining these four approaches, parents and caregivers will leave with practical tools that can be integrated into daily routines, play, and family life. The emphasis will be on strategies that are straightforward and quick to use, sustainable over time, and adaptable to each child’s unique communication profile.

Don't miss this opportunity and feel free to share if you know someone who could benefit from this FREE parent/caregiver webinar to support communication in respectful neurodivergent affirmative ways. (Aimed at ages 2-5.)

I can't tell you how many times I have worked with families where simple tweaks have started a cascade of events leading to improved connection, interaction and communication.

This is why I do this work - I KNOW that tiny adjustments make all the difference, especially early on.

On the one hand, parents are told to 'wait and see' but at the same time, they are told that 'early intervention is best'. The stress of waiting on lists to see a qualified professional, and the heartbreak when offered an assessment but then being told they have to go back on a waiting list for therapy.

You don't have to wait - you can get started now. These easy strategies - when consistently done in small doses - really can set your child on a path towards more communication. Sign up using the registration link.

I'm Carolyn, a Speech and Language Therapist of 30+ years and I specialize in supporting parents and their chidren with early intervention strategies.
