Children develop speech and language skills at different rates. Health professionals use lists of milestones — what is typical at each age — to tell whether a child is on track or may need extra help. For example, by the first birthday a child usually says one or two words, such as "Hi," "dog," "Dada" or "Mama."

What can cause a delay

CauseWhat it looks like
Hearing losssometimes the cause of a delay
Speech disordertrouble making speech sounds correctly; hesitating or stuttering
Language disordertrouble understanding what others say, or sharing thoughts

What to do

If you are concerned about your child's speech or language, talk to your child's health care provider.
