I have been a pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist for 11 years. I am excited to be launching a new product that was developed because of my son’s interest to learn how to tie his shoes at 4 years old. Thinking like an SLP helped us learn this difficult skill of shoe-tying and we were able to develop something as a family that is intentional and fun. We are thrilled to share Tie-Mates with others and hope it brings smiles and confidence to many children and families! Our goal is to enhance child development, while empowering parents.
