This section explains the support available in York to help develop your child's speech, language, and communication skills while you're pregnant.

We suggest starting with the ‘getting advice’ section first because it is the most available and helpful for most children and families. If you need to, you can then look at the ‘getting additional help’ section.

In this guide, we also show when your child’s development will be checked so you know when to expect this. We also show what you can do if you have any concerns between these checks.
