Preschool

Early intervention in speech therapy can prevent serious communication issues and help preschoolers meet developmental milestones. Speech therapy significantly improves communication skills by helping children express their thoughts and feelings effectively, understand language, and engage socially. Strong vocabulary and comprehension skills are critical for preschoolers, as they predict later academic success and reading abilities. Children who receive speech therapy demonstrate enhanced academic readiness through improved language skills, aiding in reading comprehension (National Institutes of Health). Overall, speech therapy equips preschoolers with the tools they need to succeed academically and socially, laying a strong foundation for their future development.

Partnering with families is an essential component of any successful speech therapy intervention with young children. As their child's primary teacher, parents play a key role in their communication development. At North County Speech, we partner with families to ensure that parents are supported with the right tools and information to nurture their child's speech and language development.
