If you have questions about your child’s communication, these are the usual starting points. You never need to use this app first.
- Speak with your child’s doctor, paediatrician or family health nurse.
- Ask about a hearing check, which is often the first step.
- Request a referral to a speech-language pathologist, or contact one directly if that is available where you live.
- Ask your child’s early years setting or school what support services they can connect you with.
Availability of services varies by country and region. TalkPebble does not provide referrals, assessments or clinical advice.
