What's the connection between speech abilities and behavior?
Young children often times have limited verbal skills so they frequently rely on their behavior to communicate their wants and needs. Andrea partners with local preschools to provide a value-based vs. deficit based approach to behavior consulting for children displaying unwanted behaviors like hitting, biting, tantrums, etc. She believes all children have gifts and talents and celebrates those first when helping preschoolers. She also loves educating families and preschool teachers on ways to support young children's speech and behavior skills at her training and education events.
