Nurturing happy homes.

At VoxTalk, our mission is to empower parents of young children to support early childhood development through speech-language strategies and music resources. We will teach you how to help your child’s language develop at home through purposeful play and proven strategies. 

How it all started

Language, speech, and music serve as the foundation of childhood growth and development.

During the pandemic, we both worked from home and saw most of our clients virtually through telehealth sessions. As time went on, Kathy noticed that Chris started to incorporate more songs and music into his sessions. Chris isn't known for his singing voice per se, but the music he sang engaged the child and increased participation drastically!

At that point, we started having more conversations about how impactful integrating music with speech and language strategies can be to achieve childhood milestones. We realized that by combining our unique perspectives and expertise, we could help families to promote their child’s development in a fun, interactive way.

You don’t have to be confident in your musical abilities to take our course, use our books, or incorporate our strategies into your parenting practices. You just need to know that the way you interact with your child matters, and we’re here to support your journey!
