“Talking Time” baby videos aim to encourage speech and communication in babies and toddlers. Ms Rachel speaks very slowly and clearly to model language for little ones. She also encourages signs, gestures, and imitation, which are building blocks of speech.

If you think your child has a speech delay, definitely talk to your pediatrician now. You may qualify for free speech therapy through your state's early intervention program. You can also get evaluated by a speech therapist and seek private speech therapy. The earlier you do this, the better! Rachel is not a speech therapist herself. She is a music teacher with a masters in music education. (We do have a speech therapist on our team.) A wonderful speech therapy practice we recommend is Chatterbox NYC, where Rachel learned many techniques and strategies! Rachel has also been a toddler teacher for children with special needs including speech delays, developmental delays, down syndrome, cerebral palsy, autism (ASD) and apraxia. She has also worked in homes to support families with children with special needs. She is very passionate about early childhood education and early intervention and believes all children are gifted, brilliant, precious and our teachers as well!

We have many educational videos for babies, toddlers and preschoolers on our YouTube Page, so please check out more of our learning videos for toddlers! We’d love to have you as part of the Songs for Littles family! Check out our Talking Time, Learn To Talk, First Words, Talking Toddler, Baby Sign Language, Phonics, music classes and Preschool for Littles Videos!

This video also includes a section of very slow speech practice at the very end which may be helpful for children with speech delays and childhood apraxia of speech. It also includes a section at the end of songs and nursery rhymes to go with the themes of the episode, which also help with speech and language development. It includes baby sign language throughout the video, which is shown to enhance speech development and show the power of communication. It will not impede speech development.

We have many more baby videos for babies to watch, toddler learning videos and preschool learning videos on our YouTube page. We are incredibly passionate about early childhood education! We put a lot of time, care and research into each learning video for toddlers we create. Our videos are interactive screen time not not passive screen time because research shows that this is most beneficial. We also have full baby music classes, full toddler music classes and full preschool music classes.

We use simple songs, music, basic sign language, and first words to build vocabulary. We have many videos with fun baby songs and toddler songs, and we also have videos that aim to help with speech development and first words. We also have preschool videos for preschoolers. These are great videos for teaching toddlers preschool readiness skills! They are full of preschool lessons that are great for 1 year olds, 2 year olds, 3 year olds, 4 year olds and even 5 year olds or older! We also have preschool music classes.

Many people are involved in designing our videos. On our team we have: a speech-language pathologist, a reading specialist, a Broadway musician, an early childhood curriculum specialist, a child and family therapist, and award-winning songwriters!

If you have a baby, 1 year old, 2 year old, 3 year old, 4 year old or 5 year old, our channel is perfect for you! These are some of the best educational videos for kids you will find. Our Learn To Talk for Toddlers videos show First Words and functional speech may be helpful to children with speech delays or speech disorders. These are very interactive baby videos for babies to watch. We put your baby first and not entertainment value.

Even parents enjoy the educational videos we create. Our videos are wonderful for preschoolers, kindergarteners and even elementary students. Our videos are in English and we purposefully speak slowly and clearly for optimal learning. We hope you enjoy our English learning videos for toddlers.
