KinderCare | Barna

At KinderCare Barna, we understand that it can be difficult to tell if a child needs speech therapy. If your child has been diagnosed with autism, speech therapy is almost always recommended to help them with social communication. Even if your child is very verbal, they may need help with communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures and understanding others’ body language. Speech therapy is an important part of early intervention for autistic children and can help them become more independent and confident communicators. If your child is struggling with speaking, they may be very quiet, say only a few words, or not speak at all. For more information on speech therapy, please check out our complete guide.

At KinderCare | Barna, our talented speech therapists can help your child communicate effectively with others, whether it’s through verbal speech, gestures, signs, or Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). Our team can also assist with nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, noticing and understanding body language, and feeding and swallowing. We strive to provide the best possible speech therapy to help your child succeed.
