Moms Teach Speech is dedicated to empowering parents with the knowledge and resources they need to support their child's speech & language development. Our mission is to ensure that no child goes without the support they need to communicate effectively and reach their full potential. We believe the best way to accomplish this is by equipping parents with the same tools, strategies, and techniques we use as professional speech therapists, so they can use them to do speech at home.

We are committed to empowering parents with the knowledge and resources they need to be fully confident in their mommy (or daddy) superpowers that allow them to support their child's development better than anyone else. 

We believe that nothing is more important than family. Your dedication to yours is what makes you the best therapist your child will ever have. And we strive to treat everyone who enters our community like they're our family too.

Emily Kukla, MA, CCC-SLP, is a speech therapist passionate about educating parents who have children with speech delays and improving the standard of care in the therapy world. 
​
​Her first year working as a speech therapist in the public schools, Emily noticed that the biggest difference between the kids who made lots of progress and the kids who didn't was whether they had a parent working on speech with them in between their school sessions. She realized that she could help kids make better progress by teaching parents simple strategies for supporting speech at home. Unfortunately, it wasn't standard practice to tell parents they needed to do speech with their kids every day, and there weren't many good resources to help them with that process. 

While searching for solutions to this issue, Emily discovered that there was a large community of parents online who desperately wanted to support their child's development, but who didn't know how or didn't have the resources to actually do it. To make matters worse, many of these parents had kids who were stuck on months or years-long waitlists, waiting on insurance approval that might never come, or lived in an area where they didn't even have the option of basic therapy services.

Emily founded Moms Teach Speech to help provide those families with the education and resources they needed to support their children effectively at home.

Shortly after, Emily found herself on a her own personal health journey, which led her into the world of functional medicine, nervous system regulation, and other facets of holistic health and wellness. While exploring ways to support her own health, she discovered that many parents were using that same root cause approaches with their kids who had speech delays, and they were seeing incredible results. She realized that this could be the missing piece for many kids who weren't making much progress with traditional therapy alone. 

Since that time, Emily has been studying and training in holistic health and wellness methods. She has become passionate about integrating these concepts into speech therapy practices and helping parents address the root causes of speech delays.
