I’m Erin Larsen, a pediatric speech-language pathologist, and I LOVE this age group. I’ve worked in early intervention and early childhood for years, and my favorite part of my job is connecting with parents and teaching them that THEY are their child’s best toy. I look forward to connecting with each and every one of you!

Does Screen Time Cause a Speech Delay?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Ever wondered if screen time is the reason your child isn’t talking yet? You’re not alone—and you’re definitely not a bad parent for asking. In this episode of The SLP Mom Podcast, we’re breaking down the research, the real-life impact of screen time on speech and language development, and how to handle screens without the guilt.
👩👧 I’m sharing my own stories as a mom of four, what the science actually says (spoiler: it’s not all bad!), and practical ways you can turn screen time into connection time. We’ll chat about co-viewing, interaction strategies, and simple tweaks that make a BIG difference.
Whether your toddler loves Mickey Mouse or FaceTiming Nana, this episode will help you feel informed, empowered, and a little more at peace about the screens in your child’s world.
✅ You’ll learn:
- What the research really says about screen time and language delays
- Why how your child uses screens matters more than how much
- Simple swaps to boost interaction (without ditching your break time!)
- How to make screen time more meaningful for speech development
