My name is Mychal. I am a speech-language pathologist, wife, and mommy of two energetic kiddos. During the Covid quarantine era, I opted to homeschool my two preschool-aged children while simultaneously working full-time as an outpatient speech-language pathologist at a local hospital. I developed a curriculum and planned weekly themed lessons for my children and we loved the extra time spent together learning and having fun! I have extensive experience with typical and diverse early childhood development and special populations. I love taking a creative approach to parenting, therapy, and education. I’m here to share that creativity and inspiration with you! Here, you will find parenting tips, educational inspiration, early childhood development resources and information, as well as speech and language resources and activities you can implement at home.
