Hanen It Takes Two to Talk®
The Hanen Program – It Takes Two To Talk – is a program for parents of children (birth to 5) to support communication development .
During the program parents learn practical and powerful strategies to help their children communicate and interact during every day routines and activities. It is within these familiar, real life interactions with them that their children’s communication will grow.
Over 8 sessions, parents learn how their child communicates right now and the next steps to take, what motivates their child to communicate, how they can engage their children in back and forth conversations and how to turn everyday activities into opportunities for their child to learn language.
Parents also participate in individual sessions. Within these 1:1 sessions across the Program, parents/carers practice the strategies that they have learnt during the group sessions using their tailored home plans through the method of video-coaching.
