About This Podcast
How do I get my toddler talking? Is my toddler delayed? How do I keep my child entertained in the car? What activities help language development?
And the biggest question…how do I keep my sanity as a mother through it all? Whether you’re a mom Googling all the things about child development, or curious about activities that will encourage speech and language, this podcast is for you.
The SLP Mom podcast is a weekly show packed with value:
- Answering all your questions and concerns about your child’s speech and language development.
I’m Erin Larsen, a pediatric speech-language pathologist, and I LOVE this age group. I’ve worked in early intervention and early childhood for years, and my favorite part of my job is connecting with parents and teaching them that THEY are their child’s best toy. I look forward to connecting with each and every one of you!
