Songs & Signs Specific to Daily Routines
Families and therapist have shared access to a collection of songs and signs designed to embed more language, and fun into a family's daily routines. Created by pediatric speech language pathologist and mom of two, to help with the tricky task of bringing therapy into "real life".
Peek Inside The Toolkit!
"I'm only here for 30 minutes a week and you are with your child 24/7..."
Sound familiar? ;) You know routine based coaching is the key to making real change but…
OVERWHELM
Let’s be real. You are stretched thin. And parents are too. Helping families make change amongst the chaos of being a parent can feel impossible. We want to do the best for our families, but time and energy are in short supply.
MISCONCEPTIONS & BUY-IN
You find it hard to get parents to “buy in” to the parent coaching model. Families still prefer to sit back while you to take out your “bag of tricks." And if we're being honest, you kind of wish you could do that too...
INSECURITY & SELF-DOUBT
Feeling a bit insecure without your bubbles, and ball tower for backup? You've tried working on everyday routines and stressing their importance, but it can feel awkward and difficult to know if you're making a difference.
Going bagless and routines based doesn't mean you shouldn't have a little backup...
The Early Communication Toolkit gives you...
Tools
Convenient access to simple, fun, and concrete activities to learn each week in addition to your parent coaching.
Clarity
Get specific! Families will know HOW and WHEN to use each new song, sign, and strategy.
Plan
Work together with your families to systematically add new strategies, songs, and signs into their day. Breakdown learning into tiny steps to create new habits.
Confidence
Feel secure knowing you have access to zero prep, motivating activities designed to support your families throughout the week. Give families the reassurance that they can easily access reminders & materials when they need them.

Meet Christina
Hi! I am on a mission to help add more language, fun, and connection into the daily routines of families, while helping to lightening the heavy load of therapists.
As a SLP, performer (another life, long ago), parent, and music lover, I truly believe EVERYthing is better with music!
We know that music helps us learn, listen, transition, calm ourselves, and best of all, it’s FUN.
That’s why I wanted to create a specialized resource so SLPs and early childhood professionals could more simply, and consistently add the powerful benefits of song into families' daily routines.
As a practicing SLP myself, I truly understand the challenges we face in the day to day. We want to deliver the highest quality therapy to our families, but struggle to find time and energy to create the resources to do so.
As a parent, I understand that we deeply want the very best for our child, but we are pulled in a million different directions. Adding one more thing to the chaos of life with a toddler can be very overwhelming.
I hope the Early Communication Toolkit can support parents and professionals to help bring more joy and ease to the work of helping the children we love.
