Helping Children Communicate with Confidence

- Only to watch your child play with the box instead?

Frequently Asked Questions
My child is a late talker. Should I be worried?
Every child develops at their own pace. While some children may simply need more time, delayed speech and language development can sometimes indicate that additional support would be beneficial.
The earlier concerns are identified, the earlier families can receive guidance and support. Even if therapy is not needed, a consultation can provide reassurance, education, and recommendations tailored to your child.
When in doubt, ask. It’s always okay to seek professional advice.
Do I need to wait for a referral before contacting an SLP?
No. Families are welcome to contact Sheba Speech Services directly if they have questions or concerns.
Sometimes a brief conversation can help parents better understand whether an assessment, consultation, therapy, or simple monitoring may be appropriate.
