The SLP Mom podcast is a weekly show packed with value:
- Answering all your questions and concerns about your child’s speech and language development.
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!

When Should My Baby Start Babbling? What’s Normal + What to Do
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Babbling is one of the most exciting early milestones—and one that often leaves parents with questions (and worries!). In today’s episode, we’re talking all things babbling:
- When should it start?
- What should it sound like?
- What if your baby isn’t doing it yet?
- And most importantly—how can YOU encourage it in everyday routines?
I’ll walk you through the difference between canonical and variegated babbling (in mom-friendly terms), why this stage matters so much for speech development, and what simple, realistic things you can do starting today to boost those pre-language skills.
And if your baby is a little behind—don’t panic. I’ll explain the signs to watch for, when to check in with a professional, and how early intervention can make all the difference.
Whether you’re a first-time mom or a seasoned parent wondering if your baby is on track, this episode will bring clarity and confidence. 💛
