Description

In this episode of Talking Toddlers, we examine a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of early child development: YOU. 

Yes, that's right—this conversation focuses on YOU - the mama, the parent, and grandparent. 

While much of the dialogue around toddler development centers on the child, it’s essential to recognize the SIGNIFICANT role you play in shaping their progress.

We'll explore WHY your involvement is paramount, HOW to self-reflect and evaluate your approach, and the IMPACT of your daily interactions. 

-- Before diving into developmental charts and milestones, take a moment—perhaps at the end of the day or early in the morning—to consider some essential questions about your role.

Understand that YOU are your toddler's number one influence. 

-- By making small adjustments in how you show up, you can profoundly impact your child's development. 

Whether you're filled with love, worry, exhaustion, or even dealing with other personal challenges — remember that you CAN and DO make a difference.

-- We’ll break down the raw facts of your child’s waking hours and compare them to the time spent with professionals. 

Despite the expertise of speech therapists and early intervention specialists, you have a substantial 70 hours a week with your toddler. 

— These are the hours that truly count.

Join me, Erin, as we discuss practical ways to leverage your unique position to support your child's speech and language growth and development. 

-- It’s not about doing it all perfectly; it’s about being present, intentional, and believing in your ability to guide your child. 

Tune in to learn how you can make a lasting difference, supported by neuroscience, human biology, and over 35 years of my experience in the field.
