Evaluations

At Wholesome Tyke, we are committed to understanding and treating your “whole child.” An evaluation allows us to get an in-depth look at your child's strengths, areas of need, and your family’s goals.

The process may include parent interviews, observations, and standardized testing as necessary. You will receive a written report with our findings and an individualized therapy plan, which includes treatment goals and recommended strategies.

Our Approach to Therapy

At Wholesome Tyke, we specialize in working with children between the ages of 12 months and 5 years! Our sessions are always play-based and focused on reaching the goals that matter most to your family.

We also recognize that parents play an important role in their child's development. That’s why we dedicate time to sharing resources and strategies that you can use with your child at home, right away. Together, we will set your little one up for a lifetime of success!

Our Specialties

Toddler and Preschool Feeding Therapy

Are you ready to bring joy back to the table? Our feeding therapy sessions will follow your child’s lead and build new skills through play and exploration— making mealtimes feel safe, satisfying, and stress-free for the whole family! Let’s work together to help your child:

  • Chew more effectively

  • Swallow safely

  • Try new foods

  • Remediate feeding difficulties

  • Promote and develop early orofacial development

Language Therapy

Does your child have a difficult time understanding what they hear, following directions, or expressing themselves? We can help! Our language therapy sessions use play, music, and movement to support foundational communication skills. Depending on your child’s goals, we may work on:

  • Improving listening skills

  • Learning new words

  • Speaking in simple sentences

  • Socially engaging with others

  • Communicating with confidence

Speech Therapy

Whether your child has difficulty producing one sound or many, we have tools and techniques to help them speak more clearly. Through playful activities and games, we will practice your child’s tricky sounds and help them:

  • Master all age-appropriate speech sounds

  • Speak clearly so that others understand them

  • Express themselves with confidence

  • Develop phonological skills to lay a foundation for reading, spelling, and writing

  • Articulation

  • Speech Sound Disorders

Early Literacy Support

Your child is never too young to start learning to read! Early literacy skills are critical for academic success. We use a phonics method to teach sound-letter recognition and create a strong foundation for reading. Through use of fun cards and games, your child will discover:

  • The letters of the alphabet

  • What sound(s) each letter makes

  • How to blend sounds together to form and read words

  • The joy of reading!
