At the moment I have two children I care for both with speech delays. Parents are aware and have been referred for speech therapy but there is a delay in getting seen. Child one who was 2 in March can say a few words , tree , green, car, bus, teddy, keys although they are not all clear.He doesnt always follow instructions either and I have to guide to things. Only had this child in Sept. Child two who was 2 in June , has recently started saying Mama, Dada, Baba, he has been coming since he was one and hasnt moved on. He will sing the tune of twinkle twinkle and a few others but it is nnn nnn nnnnn nnn and no actual words. I have been trying to sign with them but neither seem interested in that either. I was wondering if anyone has any better ideas and if its better to go BSL or Makaton. Thank you in anticipation as I know you clever people out there will have some ideas x
