This isn’t my usual speech content, but it is a big part of my life. I love competing in triathlons, and I’ve been training all winter for the St. George half Ironman. The logistics of training for this while working two days a week and homeschooling were chaotic at best, but I’m so grateful it worked out. I had a great race (5:38) despite the crazy heat, and I somehow snagged a slot to the Ironman world championships in Spain this fall 🎉 I’m so grateful for a flexible, fulfilling job that allows me to pursue my hobbies, no matter how crazy they are 🤪

I made this prosody prompt handout to help kids practice their words with different intonations, which helps them learn new speech skills faster. If you'd like a pdf version of this (it's free), you can get it here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Prosody-Prompts-12870140

Exciting news! 🎉

I made a course for parents who might be wondering if their child's speech skills are on track and what they can do to help at home. This course teaches when specific sounds develop and gives tips and tricks for parents to try to help their child learn sounds that might be difficult for them. I teach what helps/doesn't help when parents can't understand their child's speech. I also help parents learn when it's time to reach out to an SLP for help.

2024 was a good year! I grew my business significantly (despite only seeing clients two days a week). I made a few fun products, and collaborated with new people on projects I’m so excited about 🎉

I also homeschooled my 4 kids and went on so many adventures with them. I ran a marathon, competed in several triathlons, and started training for a half Ironman.

I feel so grateful I’m able to stay at home with my kids most days and still work part time. While the schedule juggling can be chaotic at times, I know it’s a privilege to be able to stay home and work.

I can’t wait for 2025 and new adventures!

Play based therapy is such a great way to do speech and language therapy for preschool age kids. Play IS their work, and you can work on all sorts of targets while playing.

With this mat and some farm toys, I work on:
☀️ prepositions (the cow is in the wagon)
☀️ verbs (the duck flies)
☀️ adjectives (the muddy pig says pink)
☀️ increasing MLU (dog ➡️fast dog!)
☀️ sequencing (feed the chickens before you gather the eggs)
☀️ pronouns (HE is milking the cow).

A lot of times, kids go along with whatever play structure I’ve set up and have a good time. I’ve found that rotating which mats/minis I have out and available keep the novelty and engagement up 👍🏻

I’m a pediatric speech language pathologist and I spend my days helping kids improve their speech. It’s fun, challenging, and rewarding. If you have any questions about your child’s speech and development, please reach out!

Being a mom is the best/hardest job in the world. So grateful for all the moms and mom figures who influenced me for good and who help me out on this journey, bc it definitely takes a village. Super grateful I get to be a mom and do what I love professionally. It’s the best of both worlds ❤️
