Language delays affect about 1 in 14 children. Here are signs parents often notice first.
Your child has difficulty understanding instructions, especially multi-step ones like "Get your shoes and put them by the door."
Your child uses fewer words than other kids their age, or uses the same few words for everything.
While other children are building longer sentences, your child still uses 2-3 word phrases or single words.
Your child struggles to describe what happened at school, retell a story, or explain what they need.
When asked "what," "where," or "why" questions, your child gives off-topic answers or doesn't respond.
Because communicating is hard, your child may get frustrated easily or avoid situations that require talking.
Your child may struggle with understanding language, using language, or both. We address all of it.
Language therapy is engaging, structured, and tailored to your child's specific needs.
"Our son was diagnosed with Autism at the age of 4. The first services we received was speech therapy as he was unable to express himself. We were lucky enough to have been paired with Stacey. Our son has been in speech therapy for almost a year now and has improved so much. He is always excited to go see Mrs. Stacey. We are forever grateful."— Lopez Family, Dixon, CA
"STC helped me ease my daughter into attending sessions independently instead of needing me to accompany her to every session, which has given her more confidence. My daughter looks forward to her therapy every week. We've experienced other speech therapy service providers and STC is by far our favorite. It feels like a second home."— Ann & Rose, Vacaville, CA
A speech delay is about how clearly your child speaks (articulation). A language delay is about how well they understand and use words, sentences, and conversation. Many children have both, and both are treatable with speech therapy.
Receptive language is understanding — following directions, understanding questions, and comprehending what others say. Expressive language is output — using words, building sentences, and telling stories. A child can have delays in one or both areas.
About 1 in 14 children (7%) in kindergarten have a language delay. Children with language delays are 6 times more likely to have reading difficulties, which is why early intervention is so important.
Language delays can affect reading, writing, following instructions, and social interactions at school. Children with untreated language delays are 6 times more likely to have reading difficulties. Early therapy significantly reduces these risks.
