🎒✨ SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS = LESS STRESS FOR YOU! ✨🎒

We totally get it - racing to the clinic after school or squeezing in therapy before dinner isn’t exactly your idea of a chill Tuesday. That’s why we’ve partnered with a few amazing schools and daycares right here in town to bring speech therapy TO your child during their day!

🙌 Currently partnering with:
🏫 The Goddard School
⛪ St. Joseph Catholic Academy Lower Campus
🌈 Mt. Carmel Preschool

Here’s how it works:
✅ If your child attends one of these schools, you'll receive info at the beginning of the year about how to get started.
✅ We begin with an evaluation at our clinic (because we’re not about pulling your child from a full hour of class time).
✅ Then, sessions happen at school- if that fits your family’s schedule!

If you want to snag a spot on our schedule, reach out soon!
And if your child goes to a different school and you’re thinking “Hey! Why isn’t Simply Spoken there?!” - tag your school below! 👇

"I don’t even know what I don’t know..."
If that sounds like something you’ve whispered to yourself while watching your 2, 3, or 4-year-old struggle to communicate - you’re not alone. 💛

Maybe your toddler isn’t talking yet.
Maybe you only understand some of what they say.
Maybe you’ve Googled speech delay at 2AM...
And then closed your laptop because it all felt like too much.

Here’s the truth:
👂 You don’t have to figure this out alone.
🚫 You didn’t miss a parenting memo.
✨ And it’s OK to ask questions - even if you’re not totally sure what you’re asking.

At Simply Spoken Therapy, we’re here for the parents who just need a starting place- a safe, no-judgment space to learn what’s typical, what’s not, and what we can do to help your child thrive.

💬 Our slp's are basically communication detectives 🕵️‍♀️ who decode the clues, support your kiddo’s unique path, and cheer you on every step of the way.

You don’t need a referral.
You don’t need all the answers.
You just need a place to start.

“Is this normal?”
If you’ve ever wondered that about your toddler’s speech or language - you’re SO not alone. 💛

Between 2 and 3 years old, language development can feel like a mystery. Some kids talk nonstop. Some say just a few words. Some babble. Some shout dinosaur names but can’t say “mama.” (Totally a thing. 🦕😂)

It’s tough to know what’s just part of the journey and what might need a little extra support.

That’s why we created our Simply Say and Play Language Group

👶 You’ll learn what to look for.
🤝 You’ll get expert guidance in real time.
🧸 Your toddler will build communication skills through connection and play.
🙋‍♀️ You’ll leave feeling empowered, not overwhelmed.
✨ And a whole lotta play, songs, bubbles, and fun

Perfect for late talkers, chatty kids, and everyone in between. Let us help you feel confident about your child’s communication… and have a blast while we do it!

Our session just started but there are 5 weeks left!
Fridays from 10-11
Next class is Friday August 8th! Register today to join in the fun.

One of the most powerful things we can do as SLPs (and grownups in general) is to believe in a child’s potential - before we see it. Because here’s the truth:

🧠 If they can, they will.

We hear it a lot:
👉 “They’re just being lazy.”
👉 “They’re so stubborn.”
👉 “They’re doing it at home but not here.”

But let us gently (and lovingly) reframe that:
✨ Kids aren’t lazy - they’re overwhelmed.
✨ They’re not stubborn - they’re communicating the best way they know how.
✨ Behavior is communication, always.

Our job isn’t to wait for "proof" before offering support. It’s to presume competence, offer access, and trust that every child wants to connect.

So we speak to them, not about them.
We offer opportunities, not just observations.

Let’s keep believing in their brilliance - even when it’s quiet, different, or hard to spot. Because every child deserves to be seen as capable, curious, and worthy of connection 💛

“We’re thinking about waiting a few more months to see if he catches up…”
Sound familiar? You're not alone - many well-meaning parents are told to “wait and see” when they bring up concerns about their child’s speech or language development. But here’s the thing… waiting can actually delay progress.

✨ Early intervention works - not because we want to rush kids, but because we want to give them the support they need while their brains are growing FAST. The earlier we start, the easier it is to build strong communication skills that last a lifetime.

Here’s what we often tell families:
👶 If your child is under 3 and not using words consistently
🧒 If they get frustrated trying to communicate
💬 If they’re not combining words by age 2.5
… it’s never too early to get support. But it can be too late if we wait too long.

At Simply Spoken Therapy, we don’t take a “wait and worry” approach - we take action (with play-based, child-led sessions your kiddo will actually enjoy - PROMISE!).

If you’re unsure about what’s typical, or if your gut is telling you something feels off, we’re here to listen, guide, and support you every step of the way.

📞 Contact us for a free consult and we’ll help you figure out what’s next. Let’s do this together.

Hey Mama,

I know how hard it is to send your child to school and not know what happened that day.
You ask, “What did you do today?” and get… nothing. Maybe a shrug. A sound. Or silence.

And then your brain does that thing.
Did they eat lunch?
Were they overwhelmed?
Did someone hurt their feelings and they couldn’t tell anyone?

I see you. And I know that fear - the kind that creeps in when your child can’t tell you what their day was like.
It’s exhausting. It’s heartbreaking. And it’s a heavy load to carry.

But here’s what I want you to know: it doesn’t have to stay this way.
Communication comes in so many beautiful forms - words, signs, pictures, buttons - and we can help your child find the way that works for them.

Every kid deserves to come home and share their stories. Even if it starts with one sign. One sound. One button.

You don’t have to figure it out alone. We’re here. 💛
