Whether your child is learning English alongside another language, or you’re considering introducing a new one, rest assured: exposure to multiple languages is a gift. Every story, song, and conversation helps your child’s brain grow stronger, more flexible, and more connected to the world around them.

At The Speech & Language Center, we’ve been working on something really special! Stay tuned to learn more about our bilingual Spanish-English program offerings!

🍂 Friendly reminder as you’re out and about at community and fall events — people communicate in many different ways! 💬 Whether it’s with words, gestures, devices, facial expressions, or actions, every person deserves the time and space they need to communicate in their own way. 💛

An easy way to expose your child to multiple languages even if you yourself don’t speak the language!

We’re proud to have our very own bilingual SLP, Rebecca Bulgarelli, M.A., CCC-SLP, on our team! Rebecca brings not only her professional expertise but also her lived experience navigating and learning multiple languages. This makes her work with bilingual families incredibly special — she understands both the linguistic science and the real-world dynamics of raising bilingual children.

The benefits of bilingualism go far beyond communication. The brain of a bilingual child is constantly practicing flexibility — switching between languages, organizing sounds, and choosing words depending on the situation. These “mental workouts” build the foundation for strong executive funct...

You don’t have to be bilingual to expose your child to more than one language! 🌍

Have fun learning and playing with language together — look up words in another language using technology, then sprinkle them into your routines throughout the week.

You can try greetings, colors, foods, or favorite songs! 🎶

It’s an easy, meaningful way to give your child a language-rich experience that boosts so many other skills at the same time!

Is this something you would try? Is this something you’re already doing?! We’d love to hear from you! Drop us a comment below!

In therapy, I instinctively focus on connection before anything else. I stay curious instead of reactive. At home, I’m… well, human.

The truth is, the “therapist me” and the “mom me” are both trying to do the same thing — help a child feel understood, safe, supported and capable. But one of them gets to observe from a calm, supportive distance, and the other is right in the messy middle of it.

Whether I’m in the therapy room coaching a family or at home with my own child, I have to remind myself daily: connection comes before correction.

As a mom and a speech-language pathologist, I’ve been there so many times. I am not proud to admit that even this morning I ended up in a back-and-forth tornado of emotions with my four-year-old over carrying her backpack to the car. Young kids are wired to seek control and independence. Power s

ChatGPT isn’t writing for me—it’s helping me communicate more effectively in my writing. In the same way, the strategies we use in therapy aren’t doing the work for our clients, they are giving them the tools to succeed on their own.

At The SLC, we offer a weekly program of executive functioning skills assistance and coaching from a trained specialist. Each week, we have a block of “study hours” where our professional is there to guide and teach strategies in real time while students complete work, study, and get organized for the week ahead. This program is very unique and invaluable!

The start of a new school year can be exciting—and also stressful—especially for kids who struggle with executive functioning skills. These skills help kids plan, organize, manage time, and regulate their behavior. If your child has trouble starting assignments, staying focused, or keeping track...
