Calling all homeschoolers! đź“š

School changes—and learning gets harder as kids get older.
At Speech & Smile, we’re well known for supporting preschoolers, but we also specialize in upper elementary 💙

We offer academic support through both individual learning and small-group instruction, so families can choose what best fits their child.
And with a resident teacher who is a fourth-grade specialist, we’re ready to support growing expectations as skills shift.

We’re more than speech therapy—we have a designated tutoring space and playroom designed to make learning feel supported, engaging, and doable.

OK, that was a small peek into an oops — but we’ve learned so much this week. We’ve learned about ironing, warping, stringing, and bridging, and we’re learning a whole new 3D printing jargon on this adventure. Hopefully we’ll have hammocks soon 💙

About Jill..Speech and Smiles

Hello and welcome to my page! My name is Jill and I have been a speech and language pathologist with children for 20 years. I am also a busy mom of teens and toddlers who loves to encourage better speech sounds with all children including my own.

I live in Northern Michigan and work with children in the school setting. I have continuing education experience with creating speech materials, facilitating professional learning for SLPs, autism course work, child development course work, association participation and hospital experience. I have enjoyed all of these experiences plus more!

However, over the past 2o years, I absolutely enjoy connecting with parents to help support their child's typical or atypical speech development. My professional experience paired with motherhood truly helps me understand the challenges with atypical speech development in children. Parents have the ultimate connections with their child to support and encourage speech sound development when given the right strategies, tips and tools to do so.

This page is my most recent adventure to connect with parents and share simple, easy speech development strategies. I may share a story or interesting article too!
