How do you know if your child may benefit from a speech and language evaluation?
1) If you know your child isn't meeting the developmental milestones for communication, they could benefit from an evaluation from a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist who specializes in child language development.
2) If your child becomes very frustrated when trying to communicate (or even if family members become frustrated trying to communicate with your child,) it's a good idea to seek an evaluation. That frustration can compound over time and result in fewer communication opportunities, impacted relationships with family members, or self-esteem issues as your child grows.
3) If your gut says something is wrong, trust it! Trust your intuition as a parent because nobody knows your child better than you do. Even if other people have said to "wait and see." It's soooo much better to be safe than sorry! The earlier delays are caught, the better!
If you have any questions about pediatric speech therapy or communication milestones, please feel free to reach out! Consult calls are always free because I want to make sure all your questions are answered before we schedule an appointment.
