Not to brag, but we have the BEST jobs in the world! ❤️😊
Hi! Pediatric SLP & OT, and proud parent coaches here! We help kids find their voice, connect with others, and build meaningful relationships through communication, regulation and PLAY!
As SLPs and OTs, we wear many hats: we teach kids to express their needs, understand others, use AAC, build social skills, build independence, engage with sensory input and so much more! No matter the goals, we ALWAYS focus on helping them feel safe, confident, and connected.
✨Connection is at the heart of communication and function, it’s how we share our thoughts, feelings, and ideas with the world.✨
How can we support kids in building connection and communication?
✨ Honor all forms of communication.
✨ Validate their feelings when they’re expressing themselves.
✨ Use calming, regulating activities to help them feel ready to engage.
✨ Teach them to notice how their body feels when they’re calm or overwhelmed.
✨ Model communication and connection strategies in real time.
When kids feel safe and connected, their communication and functional skills can truly shine, and that’s the magic of what we do! 💬💖
Building skills through play, everyday! Love, your VV team
