Our It Takes Two to Talk Program ® is designed specifically for parents of young children (birth to 5 years of age) who have been identified as having a language delay.
In a small, personalized group setting, parents learn practical strategies to help their children learn language naturally by teaching you, step-by-step, how to become your child’s most important language teacher.
It Takes Two to Talk ®translates the early intervention research into concrete strategies that are easy for parents to understand and put into practice. Our program offers you many opportunities to practice and discuss each strategy you learn with a speech-language pathologist so that you’ll be comfortable and confident using them at home. You’ll discover simple things you can do during everyday activities like meal time, story time and bath time to create enjoyable learning opportunities for your child.
Program Components
- An in-home pre-program consultation for you and your child with a Hanen Certified speech-language pathologist.
- 6-8 training sessions for parents in small, personalized groups led by the speech-language pathologist
- Three individual visits for you and your child with the speech-language pathologist in which you are video-taped while practicing strategies to help your child achieve specific communication goals. You and the speech-language pathologist then watch the videotaped interaction to “see” what’s helping your child and what you can modify to help even more.
- A practical Guidebook for Parents you’ll use throughout the program to support your learning
