our workshops
Naturally Baby Workshops are created and facilitated by Megan Stock, MSLP and Nicole Diduck, MSLP. These two experts have Masters level training in Speech-Language Pathology, 20 years joint experience with early communicators, and are mothers of young children.
Time 2 Talk - Babies, Toddlers, and Preschoolers will each explore the wondrous and fascinating world of early communication development, address common challenges, and offer the Natural Development Approach™. These interactive sessions will help parents understand this journey and make it even better! Parents will acquire new insights and strategies, make meaningful connections, and leave with a lasting impression.
In response to many requests, we are now including a question-answer period as part of each workshop.
