More than one in 8 children is late talking around the world.

Parents and caregivers are in the best position to help them shift the nonverbal communication behavior they are using now into the spoken language that everyone wants. It doesn’t matter WHY the late talker is stuck in nonverbal communication, language facilitation works for every parent and caregiver who is willing to take the right action.

There is more to late talking than most parents understand.

Many kids are late talking due to environmental issues such as technology overuse, and others from common childhood conditions such as ear infections and prematurity. Other late talkers have a wide range of diagnoses including autism, genetic disorders, cognitive impairment, cerebral palsy, and apraxia.

The system that was set up to help parents of late talkers is FAILING.

Parents and caregivers who previously relied on the system to (unsuccessfully) find natural speech are now equipped and empowered to facilitate real, unprompted, natural spoken language from their late talking kids.

Marci’s information is most valuable to parents, grandparents and caregivers who live and/or work with late talking children and simply want to see better outcomes than their current path has provided.

Preschool teachers, daycare providers, speech therapists, and special educators, in more than 20 countries worldwide are using Marci’s resources to implement into their work with late talking children. Many are facilitating multiple languages at the same time to help their late talkers succeed in every environment.

Anyone and everyone around the late talking child can help facilitate speech. It only takes 2-3 hours per day of conscious time together to facilitate real improvement. Even parents who are working full time are facilitating faster progress when they connect in the "Language Facilitation Zone" and model spoken language naturally during the time they spend together

Marci helps parents and caregivers become language facilitators. The Waves of Communication resources are designed to equip and empower the people who are most invested in the child. Anyone can learn to facilitate functional speech that the late talker needs to share their wisdom with the world. Parents join Marci LIVE on her Waves of Communication YouTube channel and Facebook group every week for no-cost language facilitation coaching and LIVE Q&A opportunities.

Marci’s first book, “If it isn’t FUN, it ISN’T fun” - Teach Your Child to Talk Faster Than Speech Therapy” (2019) is available on Amazon in paperback, e-book, and audiobook on Audible.

Marci’s second project, “Language Facilitation Inspiration Cards” (2021) is available for purchase at WavesofCommunication.com.

Marci’s life-changing workbooks, “The 11-Week Language Facilitation Journey to Speech” (2021) and “The 11 Week Journey to Shift Behavior Into Speaking” (2022) are also available on Amazon in paperback and e-book.

Today's high-tech world is not set up to help late talkers thrive.

A Mindset Shift - The Source of Language is YOU
Worldwide, parents have reported a whole new experience raising their kids. You will realize how powerful your actions are.

Listening, Attention, and Participation
You can expect your efforts to be rewarded with better attention and listening, starting within the first few days. This workbook shows you how to create easy opportunities all day long for consistent intervention.

Spontaneous Imitation of Actions and Speech
Late talkers will try to imitate your actions and speech when they TRUST you to help them succeed through demonstration and coaching (and without prompting, forcing, or hand-over-hand guidance).

Happiness Through SELF Empowerment
This workbook intends to help evolve your natural abilities. You will develop habits to instantly connect, translate nonverbal messages and then intuitively know exactly what to do and say. You will respond with confidence even when you feel emotionally exhausted or triggered by outside influences.

You will become a natural language facilitator!
