Talking Toddlers
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!

Fussy Babies & Pacifiers ... Part 2
Fussy babies, pacifiers, self-soothing, and self-regulation…
We continue the conversation in this week’s episode as there seems to be a lot of nuances we can’t overlook.
- oral motor development (how your baby’s mouth is shaped)
- speech sounds and eating skills
- breathing and upper respiratory health
- sleep, rest and recovery
Remember, my purpose is to demonstrate how EVERYTHING is related - especially in those first three years …
Our PRIMARY GOAL - help your baby / toddler develop into a happy, healthy, engaged and curious 7 year old.
This episode, I cover 5 Tips To Help Settle Your Baby (only one small part is using a pacifier).
Although there are periods where it may feel like we won’t last … I promise the more we focus on the moment, trying different strategies - the more you’ll both find peace.
Enjoy this episode and don’t forget to share.
EAT. TALK. PLAY.
