Special guest speaker Alessandra Spaulding from Talk Time Boston giving a talk on communication development for 0-6 year olds and when to seek support

Alessandra is a local Arlington mom of two wild toddlers and is so excited to be a founder and executive director of Talk Time Boston, a pediatric speech language private practice that provides speech therapy services, playgroups, and parent education classes.

Alessandra has always loved to work with children. Graduating with her A.B. from Princeton University and her M.S. from Boston University in speech pathology, Alessandra has worked in both educational settings and in private practices in the Massachusetts area. She is passionate about providing child-led, neurodiversity-affirming support to help children and families feel confident about communication.
