18 month milestone: Using a recipe book to request blueberries for his snack 🫐

This little guy is...
✅ starting to use some spoken words (many are not understood)
✅ pointing to pictures to request or make comments about things
✅ is FINALLY calling me "momma"!
❌ Not identifying body parts consistently (he knows his "nose" sometimes 🤣)

Remember: Milestones are guidelines to help us identify if a child needs support AND it’s a range. Every child is different!

This little 16 month old is

✅ waddling around slowly
✅ holding full conversations of nonsense words
✅ using mom’s headlamp
❌ does not refer to me as momma BUT insists on calling me “Deedee” 🤷‍♀️

A quick update and some good news!

I now accept clients with Regence BCBS insurance 🙌

I’m also in the process of becoming an in-network provider for Oregon Health Plan (OHP) and EOCCO. I’ll share an update as soon as that’s finalized!

I'm thankful for everyone's patience while I work through the credentialing process—it’s taken a bit longer than expected, but I’m excited to be able to serve more families soon.

When you trust me with your child's speech therapy, it's important to know:

❤️ I am a specialist AND I look at the whole child so I can personalize their care.
🤝 If I suspect a concern that's outside my scope, I let you know.
💬 I adjust my communication style to meet your child where they are at.

Fellow SLP's, what questions would you add? 👀 ✏️ ⬇️

My 14 month old…

✅ has said his first words (“dad” of course 😂)
✅ is CLIMBING on furniture 😅
❌ Is not walking yet
✅ dinosaurs are a hit! His growl/roar is so cute

Remember: Milestones are guidelines to help us identify if a child needs support AND it’s a range. Every child is different!
