Dear Mills,

Welcome to the group.

I'm glad you've found Smart Moves by Dr. Carla Hannaford.

Brain Gym activities could be extremely beneficial and they do support all other methods and treatments. Seeing a consultant would be best and it would give you homeplay movements.

Here are Brain Gym consultant referrals for you on your side of the bay, Faste at Stanford, 650-856-8679, and Mandy Bell, Mountain View, 650-694-7371. You might also call Margaret Underwood, 415-989-0602, in San Francisco, however she's o

ut of town frequently.

-------------- Original message -------------- From: "kkrobson" <kkrobson@...> Thanks Valyes, her expressive speech is not as fluid as children her age andback and forth conversation is limited somewhat. Her speech delay, perschool evaluation, is moderate (vs.mild or severe). She is very bright.If it wasn't her speech delay we wouldn't probably pay attention toother things, like spoiled child/strong-willed behavior sometimes(when she is with me, with our people she is a doll), or sensitivityto some sounds (like flushing toilet on the airplane). We would thinkthat it is just her traits.Now I know that there's something neurological going on. I am looking for information (from books or professional or parents),to tell me what she needs to improve her speech/focus/behavior - like"she needs repatterning and XYZ exercises to do e

veryday for 12months" recomendation. We live on Peninsula close to SF.Thanks again,Mills > > >Hello,> >My daughter is 4 y.o. with moderately delayed expressive speech.
