Before the ABCs | Melissa Donovan on Speech, Language & Literacy

This episode of Conversations with Daisy Jones is one every parent, grandparent, educator, and caregiver…every person should hear.

Daisy Jones welcomes Melissa Donovan, Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist and Owner of Donovan Rehab, for an engaging conversation that explores the powerful connection between speech, language, and literacy. You’ll discover why learning to read begins long before a child opens a book, what developmental milestones matter most, and the signs that may indicate a child needs additional support.

Melissa shares practical insights, common misconceptions, success stories, and encouraging advice for families navigating speech, language, sensory, and learning challenges. Together, Daisy and Melissa discuss why early intervention matters, how confidence grows through communication, and what every adult can do to help children become stronger readers and communicators.

This isn’t just a conversation about speech therapy. It’s a conversation about unlocking potential, building confidence, and changing the trajectory of a child’s future.

If you’ve ever wondered whether a child will “grow out of it,” questioned what is developmentally normal, or wanted to better understand the path to literacy, this episode is for you.

Listen now and join the conversation.
