✨ A huge thank you to for inviting me to share about the services I provide through Sema Speech Therapy!

I loved the opportunity to connect and discuss how we can better support children and families here in Takoma Park and the surrounding community. Collaboration like this helps us create a stronger circle of care for little ones as they grow, learn, and thrive.

Grateful to be part of such a dedicated and supportive community! 💕

Thank you, for inviting me to speak today. We had speech and language therapists (SLT) AND SLT-to-be join from Kenya, Ghana, South Africa, and more! I'm so glad that I can be a resource to my fellow African colleagues, and together, we can advocate for our most vulnerable populations.

👩🏿‍🍼I knew the second that I accepted my job as a NICU SLP, I wanted to be a resource to those who were looking to learn more about this niche.

👩🏿‍🏫My experience prior to this had been in the schools, home health-early intervention, and private practice. I have been fortunate to have taken feeding courses and have had some very interesting feeding cases over the years with solid mentorship. BUT one thing I wasn't prepared for was the documentation. Acute care note taking is VERY different from private practice and early intervention. Here are a few abbreviations I've had to learn and use since working in the NICU.

🙏🏿Mentorship is crucial, and I'm eternally grateful to my NICU mentor, who has and continues to make herself available whenever I need support 💕

🧚🏿‍♀️Stay tuned for more!

We always have the best time at the ! My girls know that if there is a core board, we are going to model using it in the hopes that other families see us using this amazing resource and feel comfortable using it for themselves.

I especially love to see family friendly space that are inclusive. Aspen, my 4 year old, is not a fan of water splashing her face. The main water feature here has a pathway that you can walk through without the water actually splashing you. It's even wide enough for a wheelchair user to enjoy. Willow, my 7 year old, enjoyed the slides, buckets, watercave, basically all the things 💕 she hasn't always been that way and it was sweet to watch her support her sissy who wasn't comfortable playing with all the water features.

Do you have a child who communicates using an AAC device? I LOVE that the communication board here has a picture symbol, label in both English and Spanish, Braile and ASL representation using fringe vocabulary tailored to water play. Do you need support on how to best utilize these community core boards? Give me a call or text and schedule a speech session or playdate with another family for a community communication play session!
