Welcome!

I am so excited to start the Blue Water Speech Therapy blog. I have so many fun ideas and so much information to share with you. I love kids and I hope you do to. This blog is going to take you on a learning adventure that involves engaging your child and having a blast while doing it. I am originally from Mobile Alabama and when you meet me you might notice I have a slight southern accent. I am a certified Speech Language Pathologist and I have the best job in the whole world. I get to have fun, laugh all day, play games, make kids smile and most of all help families grow. Sound exhausting? Well it is, let me tell you! By the end of the day I am worn out. I have sore legs from dancing, a sore throat from singing and a sore face from smile so much. But it’s awesome! I get the opportunity to watch kids meet huge milestones every day. Each child’s progress is individualized and unique to their challenges. Research has proven that early intervention is helpful for most kids. There is so much joy in watching children grow and I have dedicated my career to helping spread God’s love for all children.
 
You are your child’s knight in shining armor when they get hurt, why not be that when you are teaching them to talk too? Having a child that is delayed or with special needs can be disheartening for the whole family and I don’t want to dismiss that. Stay tuned for future blog posts about coping with your child’s special needs. Your child needs to see your smiling face every day to reassure them that they are perfect and valued in every way, despite their challenges. Start by setting time aside to have fun WITH your child. Laugh, smile, get silly, learn to be a kid again! This blog is designed to teach you everything you need to know about speech and language development and how to help your child learn to speak. Your child might have a difficult journey a head, I am going to teach you how to turn it into a fun and rewarding journey! Stay tuned!
