I have just uploaded our new Q&A session from the 12th February to the Classroom! Scroll down to the bottom of the Classroom tab to find it in the Q&A section. Today we covered prompted language and whether it advances natural communication or not. We also covered echolalia - what it is and how we can use it to help advance communication skills. Other interesting points came up too so it is definitely worth checking out! You can watch it HERE

Hello Everyone, I have just joined. I am a Manager of a Full Day Care nursery. I am hoping to gain valuable information and skills form this community and of course from Carolyn that will help enhance my staff's knowledge and skills to address all children's needs that our in our care.

💬 Spread the word! Only two days till our Live Q&A when Carolyn will present on fresh topics and ideas, and she'll answer any questions you have sitting in your back pocket. Let us help you get to the bottom of them! Keep reading if you want to learn more.... Do you have any concerns or questions about your child's communication or language development and want to make sure you are doing all you can? Do they seem to understand more than they can express? Do they prefer their own way of playing, and you're not sure what they are understanding? Perhaps you're trying to find ways to join in the play so that you can support that connection and shared joy that we know helps them to expand their communication skills? Do you want to know an insider's view on what may help you and your child? Well, we're here to help! Just by listening you'll pick up tips and tricks, learn the deeper meaning of why we do what we do, learn new approaches and ideas, and gain in confidence that what you are doing is helping your child. All over your favourite beverage (mine's a weak tea ☕️). Do not underestimate the power of these friendly live Q&A sessions - come along and find out! You can just listen and watch, leave your camera off and stay on mute on if you are shy, or you can post your thoughts and questions in the Zoom chat, or unmute and join in with your questions for a live chat with Carolyn - whatever suits you. You'll get to meet Carolyn virtually 'in person', and get an insight into the Connection Kickstart™ approach from the very person who created this innovative and transformational approach to supporting young children’s communication.

If you're on my mailing list, you may have received an email saying that our Q&A is tomorrow - but it is Next Week! I had a family priority this week so had to change the date, but forgot to update the email. Sorry about the mix up. So gather your questions and sign in on the 29th January for our live Q&A Next Thursday 29th! See you then 😃 Carolyn
