Bilingual Pediatric Speech Therapy

Pediatric Speech Therapy

Say It With Me Speech Therapy provides bilingual, pediatric speech and language services. We offer in-home and community-based services in the Sacramento area and online services to California residents.

SERVICES

We offer evaluations, private one-on-one speech therapy, and parent coaching services. Services are offered in Spanish and English by an experienced pediatric speech therapist. 

Speech

We provide comprehensive speech evaluations to determine the sounds your child is having difficulty producing. Once therapy begins, we use evidence-based approaches combined with child-led activities to support your child in developing age-appropriate speech sound production. 

Language

Communication skills are essential for your child to communicate wants and needs, play with friends, engage with family, and participate in learning and school. We work with children who are experiencing difficulty understanding and/or using language to support the development of functional communication skills.
