Maybe this sounds familiar...

Your child might have some words — but they don’t seem to be progressing as quickly as you expected.

Or perhaps words haven’t really started yet.

You’ve tried naming everything.

Repeating words.

Reading more books.

Encouraging them to copy you.

And maybe you’ve found yourself wondering:

Why aren't the words coming?

Should they understand more than they do?

Why do they seem to ignore me sometimes?

Should they be able to sit and listen for longer?

Am I doing something wrong?

The problem is that when we’re worried about speech, words are often the only thing we look at.

But words are only one part of communication.

Before language can grow, we need strong foundations.

Children learn language through interacting with the people and world around them.

They need opportunities to:

notice

listen

understand

connect

take turns

share attention

and engage with another person

These skills don’t need to be perfect before a child can talk.

And we’re not trying to make children sit still, concentrate for long periods or “perform”.

But understanding how these areas of development work can help us see where a child may need extra support — rather than simply trying harder to get them to say words.

That is exactly what we’ll explore inside Listening Before Language.

This course may be right for you if...

Your child:

• isn't using words yet
• has a small number of words but progress seems slow
• finds it difficult to stay engaged in interaction
• doesn't always seem to listen when you're talking to them
• has difficulty following everyday instructions
• seems to understand less language than you expected
• moves quickly between toys or activities
• prefers to play independently
• finds shared play or back-and-forth interaction difficult
• has words, but you feel there may be something else affecting their communication

Or perhaps you simply keep thinking:

“I know I need to support their communication — but I don't know what to focus on.”

You don't need to work that out before starting.

That's what this course is designed to help you understand.

Here's what you get when you enroll today:

• 10 practical lessons focused on the foundations that support language — including attention, listening, understanding and interaction
