About this episode
Send us a text Talking Toddler’s host, Erin Hyer, shares why she is starting her podcast now… April 2022. If you're a new mom of a young toddler or preschooler and feeling a bit overwhelmed, uncertain, or perhaps looking for confirmation on how well your beautiful toddler is really doing - maybe questioning the “wait and see” recommendation by your pediatrician, or feeling a bit guilty for sheltering him during these unprecedented times, Erin wants you to STOP. There is no time to look back and no time to “wait and see.” Erin knows you're looking for ways to be proactive and parent with courage - all you need is an experience guide. Because of her 35 years of clinical practice - on the floor, working with a variety of families, consulting with preschools, training teachers and new graduate students, diving deep into the science, asking questions - she refuses to get sucked into the overwhelming acceptance of “new normals” - skyrocketing numbers of late talkers, non-verbal preschoolers, ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, poor sleep, picky eating, lack of self-regulation, and the list goes on. Erin’s experience has given her opportunities to be part of those who continually question this “fixed” mindset - those who’s very nature is to “think outside the box,” to peel back the layers, ask WHY, and find solutions. If you’re a new mom who's eager to truly shape your toddler’s growth, to be proactive, refuse to leave it “to chance,” or unwilling to “wait & see” - you’ll love following Talking Toddlers - as Erin’s mission is to reduce the clutter, communicate clearly, and build a community of like-minded courageous mothers. Let’s get started. ====== Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
