There is now a Parent/ Carer toolkit available with speech, language and communication advice for families.
This toolkit can be used by all parents/ carers and family members, whether you have concerns about your child’s speech and language development or not.
You will be guided through how speech, language and communication skills develop from 0-11 years, so you can know what to expect, at what age, and when you may need to raise concerns.
The toolkit includes advice, signposting and videos for you to know how best to support your child’s on-going communication development.
There is information about how speech, language and communication can be impacted by factors such as screen time and dummy use.
It also provides further information about what to do if you have concerns and feel your child may require additional support.
The toolkit has been created by the Leicestershire Partnership Trust’s Speech and Language Therapy Service, with support from the local authorities.
You can find the parent/ carer toolkit on both our ‘Health for Under 5s’ and ‘Health for Kids’ websites. Please click on the link below or scan the QR code to see it for yourself.
