Parent Infant Program

The Listen and Talk Parent-Infant Program is for children younger than 3 years and consists of two parts-Auditory-Verbal Therapy, which takes place in natural environments, and Parent -Toddler Play Groups, which take place at Listen and Talk. At Listen and Talk, we believe that the family is a child's most important teacher. To make learning to listen and speak as natural as possible, our Early Individual Specialists act as coaches, teaching the child's parent (or caregiver) how to work with their child in a natural, playful way. Families gain an understanding of the process of listening and talking. Then through modeling and practice, they continue to teach their child to respond to and interpret sound in a meaningful way. These sessions build a foundation upon which language learning will continue throughout a child's daily life. Listen and Talk's Parent-Toddler Group gives children, families and professionals another chance to learn from each other. Listen and Talk also offers Family Groups specifically addressing needs related to Unilateral Hearing Loss.
