Talking ToddlersAuthor: Erin Hyer
As a new mom, dont 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. Im Erin Hyer, a licensed speech-language pathologist - and for nearly 35 years Ive 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 dont 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!

Have you ever reacted to your toddler… and then immediately wondered, “Why did I just do that?”In this episode, we look beneath the surface of toddler behavior and explore a truth that can feel both confronting and freeing: sometimes our reactions have less to do with our child - and more to do with our own history.I share how early patterns, survival strategies, and emotional wiring can quietly shape the way we parent. When we begin to notice the cycle - overwhelm, reaction, guilt, repeat - we open the door to something steadier.Toddlerhood doesn’t need a perfect parent.It needs a present one.If you’ve ever felt caught between being too soft and too strict… between patience and frustration… this conversation will help you pause, reflect, and begin again.Because lasting change in our children often begins within us. ❤️👉 Book a Discovery Call These are FREE, one-to-one conversations designed to help determine what to focus on first - and whether a focused 6-week parent coaching format would be helpful for your family at this time.
