Does my child need speech therapy services?

Finding answers online regarding speech and language development can be an overwhelming and confusing process! If you are at all concerned about your child's communication skills, book a free consultation (www.speechbear.ca/contact)to talk to a Speech-Language Pathologist. In this phone consultation, we can discuss your concerns, answer your questions (e.g., regarding funding eligibility/options), and provide recommendations.
