In this episode, we interview Laura Vincent, a regional program director for Liberty Post and licensed speech language pathologist. We discuss Laura's journey in the field of speech language pathology, the common concerns parents have regarding their children's communication development, and the differences between late talkers and those with language disorders. Laura emphasizes the importance of intelligibility in speech, the role of pediatricians in evaluating speech and language development, and offers practical advice for parents on how to support their children's communication skills at home.

In this conversation, we discuss essential strategies for parents and caregivers to support children's development, focusing on screen time management, the importance of reading and storytelling, empowering children through choice, the role of music in learning, effective communication techniques, the significance of repetition in skill acquisition, and how to support children receiving therapy services. We emphasize the need for a nurturing environment that fosters autonomy and creativity while providing practical tips for everyday interactions.
