Speech-Language Pathology Services
At Spring Perinatal & Children Wellness, we understand that effective communication is fundamental to a child’s overall development. Speech language pathology helps to play a crucial role in helping children develop strong communication skills, whether it be verbal or non-verbal. Speech language pathologists (SLPs), are trained and practiced in solving different kinds of speech and communication problems in children.

- Struggles to follow directions or express themselves
- Shows frustration when trying to communicate
- Cannot or seems not to want to start conversations with others
- Hesitates or struggles when talking

Oftentimes, early intervention is key. If you are concerned about your child’s speech, language, or communication skills, do not hesitate to reach out. Currently, we are partnered with From Play to Words to offer these services.
