In Sync
(Music+Speech Therapy)
Using the power of music + dancing to build group engagement, imitation, connection, and communication in your child.
Looking for an inclusive space for your child to build the exact skills they need?
As a parent of a young child with developmental delays, you are looking for meaningful ways to engage your child in group settingsANDhelp them gain the skills they need to interact with others. You want to build these important skills with your child, but you might not be sure exactly how. You also know that you need a nurturing group environment that will respect your child’s unique needs and abilities and support them as they learn.
If this sounds like you, we are excited to share with you our In Sync music and speech program. Through connecting with others, participating in groups, and following routines, your child will be set-up to communicate better, develop skills to build relationships, and be more successful in group environments. We have strategically designed our In Sync program to meet your child where they are at developmentally and work towards growing them to their next level.

What this program will build in your child:
In Sync is a 5-week, small-group, and parent-attended program. Each In Sync class is led by a Speech-Language Pathologist who will use music and dancing to work on:
Participating in a group environment
Engaging in an activity for increased periods of time
Creating moments of meaningful social engagement and connection
Following routines and directions
Building language and pre-communication foundations
At Pathways, our philosophy for supporting all children lies within a neurodiversity-affirming framework. We also work within a developmentally-focused approach. Regardless of diagnosis, children need connection and attachment with others to learn. For very young children with delays, we must first support their ability to connect with other people for shared engagement. This is what In Sync can provide for your child; opportunities for your child to build all of these foundations.
Who should attend Pathways’ In Sync Music + Speech group?
We want every child to be safe and successful.
Please review the registration criteria below before signing up.
Your child is a perfect fit for the In Sync program if:
They are 2-to-7 years of age and are experiencing developmental delays, particularly difficulties with connection, social engagement, and language development. This could look like struggles with developing and maintaining friendships, following routines, being in groups, and/or communicating with others. **If your child is older than 7 years and you are interested in the In Sync program, please contact us as we offer In Sync sessions for 7-to-12 year olds intermittently through the year depending on interest.
They would benefit from programming held within a welcoming, inclusive environment that supports and accepts their unique abilities and responds to their areas of need.
If you are unsure if your child meets this criteria, unsure if your child is ready for a group program, unsure about your child’s support needs, it is impossible for our Intake Team to decide this for you without knowing your child. If your child is currently a client at Pathways, please discuss group programs with your child’s clinician(s). If you are NEW to our clinic, it may be best to book an Initial Consultation with a SLP, OT, or Parent Coach to gain a clearer understanding of your child’s readiness.
