The question every parent asks

Is your child behind in speech — or is it just bilingualism?

You live abroad. Your child hears two languages but still isn’t talking. The pediatrician says “wait,” the kindergarten teacher shrugs, and you’re up at 3 a.m. googling.

You don’t have to do it alone. I help diaspora families understand speech development in bilingual children — without panic, with clear steps, in your own language.

Stefan started talking at kindergarten after just two months of work. Lavinia gave us a clear plan — and for the first time I stopped panicking.

I was ready to give up on our mother tongue. Lavinia showed me I don’t have to choose — my child can have both languages, and thrive.

The first consultation lasted 45 minutes and changed everything. Concrete advice, no fancy jargon. Mila is a real chatterbox now.

As a dad, I never knew how to approach it. Lavinia gave me the language — literally. Now Luka and I play and learn together.

Filip stuttered for a year. After working with Lavinia, we understood the cause — and today he speaks without blocks.

I finally felt heard. Not just me — Sara too. That’s what I needed most of all.
Ana Radović
Sara’s mom · Zurich
I got a written report after the consultation — I keep it like a map. Every sentence was meant for us.
Danijela Todorov
Luka’s mom · Belgrade
Faith matters deeply to us, and we speak three languages. Lavinia understood our context like few people could. Thank you so much.

Muhamed’s mom · Vienna
An intensive five-session plan gave us structure for the whole semester. Sofija is in kindergarten now — and speaks both languages.
