Speech in Play: Parent Coaching for Ages 8 to 18 Months

Speech in Play is a small-group parent coaching programme for families with children aged 8 to 18 months, designed to help everyday play become a powerful tool for language learning. In an intimate group of just 5 parents, our therapist will guide you through practical, evidence-based ways to interact with your child to encourage communication, attention, and early speech development. Each session combines therapist-led teaching with unstructured playtime, where you can practise strategies in real time with your child while receiving support and feedback.

“
Thank you for sharing such thoughtful ways to connect more closely with our toddler through words and meaningful communication – it really resonated with me. It helped R to express more actions and words naturally while playing. R loved the pretend play and adding water to the kitchen set made it even more fun and engaging!
Mom of R · Speech In Play
The environment was warm, welcoming, and child-friendly, which helped my child feel comfortable and relaxed during the session. The strategies taught were helpful because they were practical and easy to apply at home. I also gained a better understanding of how to support my child’s development in everyday situations.
Mom of K · Speech In Play
It was a good opportunity to slow down and be present for my child. It taught me to see things from his perspective and learn to connect with him at his level. The tips shared will help parents stay attuned to their children’s needs and parent in a busy world.

Let’s talk about your child

You do not have to figure it out alone.

Not sure whether a group programme or one-to-one sessions with a good speech therapist in Singapore would suit your child better? You do not have to figure it out alone. Our team also provides educational therapy for literacy and therapy for autism that grows connection through play, and we are happy to point you to the right starting place. The first conversation is free.
