In this episode, Stephanie Davis, Speech-Language Pathologist at Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital, shares what every parent should know about pediatric speech therapy, from understanding what it is and how it works to knowing when it might benefit your child.

Speech-language pathologists do more than help children say their first words, they support development in areas like speech sounds, language, social communication, and even feeding skills.

Whether your child is a toddler who isn’t talking yet or a school-aged child facing communication challenges, this episode offers practical insights into what to watch for, what to expect from therapy, and how families can play an active role in their child’s progress.
