What Parents Are Saying About SmallTalk

  • “Thank you guys for being amazing “

    “I’ve been coming here about a year now for my kids and it’s helped a lot! My kids love coming to SmallTalk; they get so excited because they incorporate a lot of play with the teachings. Recently my daughter with Selective Mutism just talked with her teacher, it’s a HUGE step and I’m so excited to see what else happens! Thank you, Guys, for being amazing and sweet to me and my kids.”

    -Natasha

  • “I adore this place and would highly recommend it “

    “My son has been going here for a large majority of the year and he loves it! He actually enjoys and looks forward to attending two times a week. He receives speech and occupational therapy and he loves Mr. Thomas. He’s always excited to see him and “play.” He’s learned to self-regulate and Mr. Thomas always makes my son feel like he’s in control even when he’s not, which is huge for him. Ms. Chelsea is so kind and so patient and really works with my son and understands his struggles. Overall I adore this place and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for these needs for their child.”

    -Barbara
