Frequently asked questions.

  • Is the initial free consultation required?

    Yes. The free consultation is an important first step. It allows us to determine whether our services are a good fit for your child and gives you the opportunity to ask questions and get to know Chattertots LLC before moving forward.

    Is this approach a good fit for my family?

    Every family is different. Some families benefit most from traditional speech therapy, while others thrive with a caregiver coaching model. Some require in-person, weekly therapy, while others do well with a flexible, virtual schedule. We’ll help determine the best fit during your free 15-minute consultation.

  • Virtual Parent Coaching

    Parent coaching focuses on empowering parents and caregivers with practical strategies to use during everyday routines and play. These sessions are centered around you — helping you learn how to encourage communication naturally throughout the day. Coaching may include guidance on play skills, language-building techniques, routines, behavior around communication, and ways to create more opportunities for interaction at home.

    Your child does not need to be present during parent coaching sessions, making this a flexible option for busy families who want support, education, and actionable strategies.

    Virtual Speech Therapy

    Virtual speech therapy sessions are direct therapy services provided for your child. Sessions are designed to target specific communication goals related to speech, language, social communication, or play. Therapy activities are individualized, interactive, and play-based, with parents often participating to support engagement and carryover.

    Because this is direct intervention, your child is present during sessions and participates through virtual observation, interaction, and guided activities with the parent, facilitated by the therapist.

    What ages do you work with?

    Our services are typically designed for children under age 3. However, development varies, so we encourage you to reach out if you’re unsure whether your child is a good fit.

  • How frequently should we be seen?

    We’re flexible! Coaching and therapy frequency depends on your family’s needs and goals. Between sessions, you’ll practice strategies at home so progress continues beyond our scheduled time. We have found the busy parents and caregivers need flexibility in scheduling and we are here to work with you!
