Hearing and Language milestones for children
Hearing helps your child learn to communicate.

This can cause them issues such as,
- Delay in learning language and speaking
- Delay in school performance
- Lack of social skills

It is important to test your child’s ear if you think they have trouble hearing.
Testing and getting the necessary health solutions early is key.
After testing your child’s hearing, your audiologist will determine if your child’s hearing is normal.
If the results show any defect, your child will be directed to hearing solutions such as medical treatment, hearing aids or language therapy.
