Communication Starts Early!
Speech-language pathologists are regulated health professionals who specialize in identifying, assessing, and treating communication disorders, as well as feeding and swallowing difficulties in children. A delay or disorder can occur in one or more of the following areas:

• Language Development:
  • Receptive Language: Understanding the meaning of words and concepts. Your child may have difficulty following instructions, identifying objects in books, or even reading.
  • Expressive Language: Using gestures, sounds, or words to communicate. Signs of difficulty include a limited vocabulary, trouble forming sentences, or challenges with writing and spelling.
• Social Communication Skills:
  Social communication involves using language appropriately in social settings. Your child might have difficulty responding to their name, taking turns, or having conversations. Differences in social communication can be indicative of Autism.
• Speech Disorders:
  Speech involves the pronunciation of words. You may notice your child substituting sounds, omitting or distorting them. Motor speech disorders, like Childhood Apraxia of Speech, affect speech strength and coordination, while other conditions such as stuttering and voice disorders also impact communication.
