"Our developmental therapist gave us    strategies that fit naturally into our routines, like using play to build language, making mealtime a chance for connection, and    turning everyday tasks into learning opportunities. Having these tools in our own home gave us confidence, and the collaborative   effort helped our child truly bloom."
