Early Language Development

Come join us to learn more about early communication in babies. Linda Mattan, a leading pediatric Speech Language Pathologist, will discuss the importance of early communication in babies and toddlers and share tips and strategies on how to encourage language development at home. 

Speaker: Linda Mattan - Happy Baby Talk

Speaker bio: Linda has always worked with babies and toddlers and the last 15 years she was the speech pathologist on the Neonatal Developmental Follow Up team at both Sickkids and Mount Sinai Hospital. This provided a unique opportunity to work alongside many developmental specialists. She recently started Happybabytalk to provide information and education to new moms and dads with a focus on how to engage their babies and toddlers to best promote communication skills, social skills and play skills at home.
