How many words should your toddler be saying?

Here’s the short answer:
👶 1 year — start saying their first words
🗣️ 18 months — 50 to 100 words
💬 2 years — 200 to 500 words + 2-word phrases
🧠 3 years — 3+ word phrases + you and strangers understand 75% of what they say
✅ 4 years — 100% understandable to everyone

First: don’t panic.

Second: don’t spend the next three hours asking Dr. Google 😅

If you’re wondering whether your toddler’s vocabulary is on track, start by learning what’s expected for their age and what you can do during everyday routines to help boost their words.

You don’t need to turn every interaction into speech therapy.

You need the right strategies—and a plan.

That’s exactly what I teach inside The Bitchen Talking Toddler Course: research-backed, parent-friendly ways to support speech, vocabulary, and communication at home.

No guilt. No doom scrolling. No PhD required.

Just 17 years of SLP experience in your corner. ❤️

The parents who ask questions? Love ’em.

The parents who celebrate one new word like their toddler just won an Oscar? LOVE ’em. 😂

And the parents who share my resources with another parent who’s been wondering about their toddler’s speech?

That means more than you know. ❤️

If you know a toddler parent who could use research-backed speech resources without the Google rabbit hole, send them my way.

Apparently knowing how to help your toddler build their vocabulary is kinda chic now 💅

And I’m here for it.

You don’t need fancy toys, flashcards, or a Pinterest-worthy playroom to encourage more words.

Talk during everyday routines. Model new vocabulary. Read the same book until you can recite it in your sleep. Celebrate the little wins. And know what speech milestones you’re actually looking for.

Because supporting your toddler’s speech doesn’t have to feel like another full-time job.

Want research-backed strategies you can actually use at home?

Parents ask me all the time,

“Am I overreacting?”

Here’s what I tell them:

You don’t need certainty to ask questions.

Learning more about your toddler’s speech and communication doesn’t create problems.

It creates options.

And options are powerful. ❤️

One of the biggest questions parents ask is:

“Is my child a late talker, or is this normal?”

The answer isn’t always as simple as counting how many words your toddler says.

As a Speech-Language Pathologist, I look at much more than vocabulary.

I look at preverbal communication:

❤️ Gestures
❤️ Eye contact
❤️ Play skills
❤️ Joint attention
❤️ How your toddler communicates with the people around them

Understanding speech and language development helps you feel more confident about what you’re seeing every day.

That’s exactly why I created The Bitchen Bundle of Freebies.

Inside you’ll find research-backed resources that explain toddler milestones for speech sound development, WH questions, hearing, and an Emotions chart in a way that’s easy for parents to understand.

Because you shouldn’t have to spend another night Googling “speech delay” and hoping for the best.
