Spend a day of cancelled sessions with me.
No, it is not a free day. 😂
One thing people don't always see is that speech therapy doesn't only happen during that one hour with your child. We spend a surprising amount of time thinking about our kids even when they're not in front of us.
📲 Check my phone
My feed is basically crafts, DIYs, sensory activities, and whatever my kids are hyperfixated on that week. If I see something that makes me think, "Oh, ____ would LOVE this," it gets saved for the next session.
Moreover, I also respond to inquiries whether it is from incoming students or parents who may have questions about our previous questions
📝 Paperwork
As fun as therapy looks, someone has to write the reports, update the data sheets, and make sense of all the progress we're seeing
📚 I study. A lot.
Whether it's a paid course, a free webinar, or reading the latest research, continuing education isn't optional in a profession that's constantly evolving. If SLP is expected to grow, so should I
✂️ Make or hunt for materials.
Sometimes I'm printing. Sometimes I'm laminating. Sometimes I'm calculating how many goals I can target using one toy.
😴 Rest
I refuse to wear burnout as a badge of honor. My kids deserve a therapist who is regulated, present, and genuinely happpy to be in the room.
..and that's my free day! :)
