As a new mom, don’t you wish you had someone whispering in your ear with practical and trustworthy guidance? Finding clarity can be challenging these days, and the uncertainty seems almost deafening. Talking Toddlers breaks down how our children grow, learn & develop - by building relationships, human connections, and learning through language. I’m Erin Hyer, a licensed speech-language pathologist - and for nearly 35 years I’ve played with kids on the floor, inspired parents to use everyday routines for learning, consulted with early educators, and trained graduate students to move beyond the classroom and “think outside the box.” My purpose is clear - understand how the brain learns to learn, bridge any gaps before they turn into life-long challenges, and keep kids moving forward. I don’t believe in “taking anything for granted” or “leaving it to chance.” Nor do I subscribe to accepting the increasing “new normal.” Parents are in a very special position to create a language-rich home environment & truly guide kids to thrive, to learn through everyday activities, while building confidence, flexibility and a true curiosity for learning. Episodes will bring practical ideas, as well as, some deep dives to help you understand why there are roadblocks? I believe we are more likely to implement strategies and activities or make changes if we know the reasoning behind them. My goal - to help moms feel empowered and toddlers happier. Please join me every Tuesday, Talking Toddlers where moms come for clarity, connection and courage. Stay tuned for amazing interviews, discussions & practical guidance on how Talking Toddlers learn to thrive - at home - with their moms!

    I’ve Seen Hundreds of “Late Talkers.” Here’s What All Parents Miss. Ep 133

    If you want your child to talk well — not just say more words — this episode will change the way you think about early communication.

    Because here’s the truth:
    Talking doesn’t just “show up” one day.

    It grows from the daily experiences underneath it — connection, play, movement, interaction, modeling, as well as sleep, nutrition, and healthy routines.

    Whether your baby is 6 months old and you want to stay ahead…
    or your toddler is already showing signs of delay…
    understanding what’s happening underneath the words is one of the best gifts you can give your child.

    You’ve probably heard the common lines:
    “Boys talk later.”
    “Late talking runs in families.”
    “Give it time. She’ll talk when she’s ready.”

    But in 2025, it’s much more nuanced than that — and simply assuming “it’ll all work out” can keep kids stuck longer than they need to be.

    After 35 years in early intervention, Erin has seen hundreds of so-called “late talkers,” and here’s what most parents (and many professionals) miss:

    👉 Not all late talkers are the same.

    Some children are on a simple language-delay path.
    Others are showing early signs of a broader 'communication' difference.
    Those two paths need different kinds of support.

    In this episode, Erin helps you “look more closely” and get curious, as she explains in clear, practical terms:

    • what to notice before the first birthday
    • the difference between a language delay and a communication disorder
    • why focusing only on “more words” can miss the real issue
    • how play, sensory needs, emotions, and movement all shape speech
    • subtle signs parents overlook in the toddler years
    • questions to ask instead of just “waiting and seeing”
    • what you can start doing today to support your child, at any age

    If you’re a parent who doesn’t want to rely on assumptions or old myths, this conversation will give you the clarity and confidence to ask better questions, seek the right kind of help, and support your child’s development from the very beginning.

    If you want your baby or toddler to talk well — not just say more words — this episode is your starting point.

    Because IMITATION is the skill that comes before gestures, babbling, understanding, and eventually… real talking.

    Most parents overlook imitation.
    Many professionals gloss over it.
    But after 35 years helping babies and toddlers communicate, I can tell you this with absolute certainty:

    Toddlers learn to imitate long before they learn to talk — and imitation is one of the strongest predictors of early speech.

    In today’s episode, I’m walking you through the real building blocks beneath talking and how imitation shapes attention, connection, and communication.

    You’ll learn:

    • what imitation actually is (it’s not just copying words!)
    • the layers of imitation your child moves through
    • the connection between imitation, gestures, and early language
    • the simple mistake many parents make without even realizing it • playful, natural ways to spark imitation at home — starting today

    Whether your little one is 9 months, 12 months, 18 months, or closer to 2, this episode will help you see communication in a whole new way — long before the words appear.
