🎧 As heard on The Language of Play

Welcome — from one SLP to your family.

Here's the reassuring truth: raising your child with two languages won't delay their speech — it's a gift you can give without fear. I'm Lindsey, a licensed speech-language pathologist, and I built Palabra Garden for parents like you (and me) who weren't raised speaking Spanish but want to try anyway.

Here's a gentle, no-pressure place to start — free.

• Free SLP-built resources

  A Bilingual Speech Milestones Checklist (the "is my child on track?" question, answered by a licensed SLP), 50 First Words each with a real photo, a daily phrases cheat sheet, and a screen-free activity planner. Instant access — no second signup.

• One small, doable idea each week

  One bilingual prompt, milestone note, or tiny activity in your inbox each week — built for parents who weren't raised speaking Spanish themselves.

• Made for exactly this stage

  Everything is designed for ages 2–5 and for English-dominant parents who are still learning Spanish alongside their kids. No fluency required.
