Speech Language Therapy at SmartStart

We believe that speech is not just using words. The driving force to build communication first starts with

intent, a child’s innate desire to connect. All children come wired to have attachments and relationships,

so it is important to mold and shape communicative intent by validating a child’s use of eye gaze, body

movements, vocalizations, hand-leading gestures, facial expressions, and words, into meaningful

interactions that not only allows children to become known, but believed in. We utilize a relationship-

based approach with the emphasis of pre-linguistic development that relies on the use of affect-based

exchanges, active language-learning processes, as well as multi-sensory experiences in a naturalistic

environment. Our goal is to stimulate interest and provide internal motivators for each child in order to

enhance communication through joyful and pleasurable experiences. It is our highest priority that

communicative opportunities occur across multiple contexts and environments as well as involve direct

collaboration with parents. Building strong communication involves facilitating interactions around

eating, dressing, playing, problem- solving, reading, routine-based community outings as well as family

trips and experiences. It is our belief that all children are unique; they are all reachable, and deserve to

be understood and heard! Speech Therapists at SmartStart are involved and invested in all aspects of

the child’s development. We provide speech services both in group and individual and is truly based on

the individual needs of the child. Theme-based teaching in the classroom extends into the therapy

rooms as well, creativity and inspired therapy is celebrated and the children thrive in this environment.
