The Jungle Gym

At The Jungle Gym, we understand how important it is to assess if your child needs speech therapy. If you’re unsure if your child needs speech therapy, there are a few signs to look out for. These include difficulty responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. Early intervention is key for language development and with the help of speech therapy, your child will be able to learn effective communication techniques, leading to more independence and confidence. If your child is very quiet, only speaks a few words, or does not speak at all, these may be signs that they need speech therapy. To guide you through the process, The Jungle Gym has created a complete guide to help you determine if your child needs speech therapy and how to go about it.

At The Jungle Gym, our speech therapists can help your child with nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, noticing and understanding body language, feeding and swallowing, and even stuttering. Our goal is to help your child communicate effectively across all environments, using a combination of gestures, simple signs, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). With our comprehensive speech therapy services, your child can learn to effectively communicate their thoughts and feelings.
