How do I know if my child needs speech therapy?

It can be difficult to determine if your child requires speech therapy. Understanding the key signs and conditions that indicate a speech delay or disorder is crucial in seeking timely intervention.

Signs That Your Child May Need Speech Therapy

• Limited vocabulary compared to peers of the same age.
• Difficulty pronouncing words correctly.
• Struggles to form complete sentences.
• Inconsistent or unclear speech that is difficult to understand.
• Frustration when trying to communicate.

If you observe any of these signs, consulting a speech-language pathologist can help assess your child's needs and recommend the right course of action.
