Speech Therapy: What Parents Can Expect and Why It Matters | Candid Conversation with Monica Hood

In this video, I sat down with Monica Hood, speech-language pathologist, for one of the most practical and reassuring conversations about pediatric speech therapy I have had on this show. Here is what we cover: What speech therapy actually is and who it is for The early signs that a child may benefit from speech therapy What parents can expect during the speech therapy process How speech and language development connect to sleep and overall health Why early intervention makes such a significant difference How to advocate for your child in the school and medical system What parents can do at home to support their child's communication development This is the conversation every parent deserves to have early. ********************* 🎓 Struggling with sleep?
