KinderCare | Merritt Island

KinderCare Merritt Island understands how important it is to recognize if your child needs speech therapy. If you’re unsure, our guide to speech therapy will provide you with the information you need to determine if it’s the right choice for your child. We’re here to help you assess whether your child is displaying any of the signs of delayed language development, such as difficulty responding to questions, initiating or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is a major focus of early intervention for autistic children and can help them develop the communication skills necessary for independence and self-confidence. With our guide, you’ll have the information you need to decide if your child could benefit from speech therapy.

At KinderCare in Merritt Island, we understand that speech therapy can be beneficial for children in many ways. Our team of experienced and dedicated speech therapists can help your child learn to communicate effectively by teaching them nonverbal skills, such as signs or gestures, forming speech in a clearer way, expressing thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, and discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions. We also help with understanding body language, feeding and swallowing, and stuttering. With the help of our speech therapists, your child can gain the communication skills and confidence needed to succeed in all environments.
