In-Home Speech and Language Therapy
In-home speech and language therapy takes place during your child’s favorite activities at your home, so learning is natural, motivating, and meaningful. We build on your child’s strengths, using play routines and real-life materials to create everyday opportunities for communication. With consistent, individualized therapy, families see positive changes in confidence, clarity, and connection.
Every child’s path is unique. We begin with a thorough assessment and create an individualized plan with goals and regular progress checks. With practice and support, during activities shaped around what your child loves, meaningful change happens—children become clearer communicators who feel more confident connecting with the world around them.
In-home speech and language therapy is available throughout Minneapolis, Edina, and the surrounding Twin Cities metro area.
Our Areas of Expertise
At Talk in the Nest, we provide personalized speech therapy for children with a range of communication needs, including:
Late Talkers and Language Delays: Targeted support to expand vocabulary, increase spontaneous communication, and build sentences. We focus on meaningful words and routines that you use every day.
Speech Sound Disorders: Individualized treatment for articulation disorders, childhood apraxia of speech, and other speech challenges. We combine evidence-based therapy with functional practice so children can use clearer speech confidently in real-world situations.
Autism and Neurodivergent Communication Styles: Neurodiversity-affirming support that respects each child’s unique way of communicating. Therapy prioritizes connection, emotional regulation, social communication, and meaningful language while incorporating parent coaching and child-led interests to support learning in everyday routines.
Gestalt Language Processors: Support for children who learn language through phrases and scripts. Therapy honors natural language development while helping children progress towards more flexible, self-generated language.
Auditory Processing Differences
Targeted intervention to strengthen auditory memory, following directions, and comprehension. We also help families make practical environmental modifications to make communication less overwhelming.
Listening and Spoken Language
Specialized therapy for children who are deaf or hard of hearing, focused on developing auditory and spoken language skills.
Parent Coaching and Family Support
Children make the greatest progress when caregivers are active partners in the therapy process. In addition to direct therapy, we provide guidance to help families support communication growth between sessions.
Parent coaching may include:
Practical strategies to encourage speech and language development during everyday routines
Navigating school-based services, evaluations, and IEPs
Guidance for carrying therapy goals into daily life
