"The best thing that could have happened"

About: Children & younger people's services / Early Intervention Speech and Language Therapy (Home talk)

(as a staff member posting for a patient/service user),

My son was referred to the Home Talk service due to language delay at 2 year old.

At the start of Home Talk I was feeling nervious as it was something new and I wasn't sure how H would react.  Those feelings soon passed when Chris arrived. H loved her, they played games, read books and sang songs. H's talking came on in leaps and bounds in no time at all. I also feel Chris taught me the correct ways to teach him when she wasn't there, the main thing being patience.

H went from saying a few words to sentences in no time at all and I would, because of this, recommend Home Talk to any parents whose child was struggling like H. An absolutely brilliant helpful service. 

The best thing that could have happened for H.

Thank you Chris
