We love it for these reasons:
Open ended play
Opportunity to model verbs
Cause and effect learning
Enjoyed across ages
Low stimulation/noise

As always feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns!

No waitlist at Erin or Fergus Locations with after school appointments available!

Halloween should be fun for everyone!

We are making some visuals to support kids that struggle to say “trick or treat”. Send me a message if you would like to be emailed a copy of the visuals

This conversation comes up a lot! So let’s chat about it!

TLDW: communication comes in many forms, gestures, facial expressions, words and echos. It tells us valuable information about what an individual is thinking. Imitation is a promoted copy of something we have said. It may or may not have communicative value.

We strive for communication in all forms over prompted imitation!

I hate to sound spicy, but this needs to be known!

In Ontario, only 3 healthcare professionals are legally permitted and regulated to diagnose tongue ties:
- Physicians
- Dentists
- Midwives

What can the rest of us do?
- state concerns, if we have them
- discuss with families what we are observing
- refer appropriately for diagnosis and/or treatment
- provide options
- provide evidence based information on a topic when asked

Trust your gut! Everyone has their areas of expertise. Everyone has their scope of practice. Know your rights and know where to go to learn more about the scope of practice of that profession. Starting with the regulatory body is a great option!
