Baby Talk is a 5-week baby and caregiver group, facilitated by a Speech-Language Pathologist. The program offers parents/caregivers the opportunity to learn strategies for supporting their baby’s language development while providing an opportunity to play with their baby and meet other families.

Why Join us?

  • Learn to encourage your baby’s language development from an experienced Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP)

  • Have fun with your baby! What could be better than focused time down on the floor with your baby, sharing laughs, talking and playing?

  • Explore and play with toys, songs and games designed to promote communication with your baby, as well as experiment with non-toy objects you likely already have in your home

  • Meet other parents and babies to make new connections with families in our community

  • Ask all of your burning questions! Most families only access SLP services when they are concerned about their child’s speech and language development. This class provides an opportunity to ask questions of an experienced Speech-Language Pathologist!
