You haven’t reached the stoplight yet on Late Talker Lane. Your child is less than 6 months old and still has time to acquire first words. However, you answered that your child is not cooing yet. Typically babies start cooing between 2-4 months and babbling begins between 4-9 months.

If your child is not cooing and/or babbling we may be able to help, but we also urge you to bring up any concerns with your child’s pediatrician. You want to make sure that your child’s language skills continue to progress in an upward trajectory. Our Talk On Track course will teach you how to help your child progress up “The Noisy Steps”, from cooing to babbling and into those first words! You can do this by implementing our evidence-based “I TALK” technique into your everyday routines. This course is an amazing proactive measure to help you help your baby meet communication milestones and literally, “talk on track”! 

Also, be sure to follow us on Instagram @speechsisters for daily tips and tools to help enrich your child’s language development. We recommend that you take this quiz again when your child is between 13-15 months old. If you have ANY concerns at all regarding your child’s speech and language development, it is important to reach out to your pediatrician and/or a certified speech-language pathologist* to make a plan of action
