Why I Turn Into Miss Rachel in My Therapy Room

Hi everyone, This week on Wine with Wita, I’m bringing you a solo episode straight from my speech therapy room, and it all started with a toy house and a little girl who thought Miss Rachel had walked into the room. It’s funny how often parent say to me: “I wish I was like Miss Rachel.” But the truth is… you already can be. Singing with your child doesn’t require a perfect voice or a polished routine. It’s about connection, joy, and creating moments of learning, whether you’re packing lunchboxes, brushing teeth, or cleaning up toys.In this episode, I’m sharing:✨ Why singing works (and why I use it so often in therapy and at home) ✨ How you can build connection and boost communication with everyday routines ✨ A little encouragement to embrace your inner Miss Rachel - even if you think you “can’t sing”For anyone curious about how everyday moments can spark connection and communication, this story is a reminder of the magic in the small things.PS: Would you love to hear me interview the real Miss Rachel on Wine with Wita?
