Language development in humans is a process starting early in life. Infants start without knowing a language, yet by 10 months, babies can distinguish speech sounds and engage in babbling.

By completing this course, you will learn how to apply the talk, listen and cuddle model and you will be introduced to real life scenarios on how to best support children in your work environment. 

This course will cover the importance of communication by helping you to understand why you use certain words, how you tone your communication and how your body language is a form of speech.
