“We are incredibly grateful for the work that Jennie Kitaychik has done with our 6-year old daughter, Olivia, over the past year.  Jennie keeps Olivia's attention during virtual sessions through her playful, kind, and curious engagement.  As an American family living abroad, we are grateful that Jennie is able to offer her services to Olivia so seamlessly.  From the start, Jennie was excellent at communicating areas of growth for Olivia and updates about how Olivia was progressing.  She is able to vector "little people" energy and achieve tangible goals in developing our daughter's ability to speak more clearly and understand linguistic concepts that help with both speaking and reading.  Olivia loves her time with Jennie and looks forward to seeing her every week--we couldn't recommend Jennie more!”

Workshop

“I attended a workshop with Jennie and it was very, very helpful. She is very warm, friendly and an amazing listener, and has many little tips and suggestions which were so good to know. I have been using her suggestions with my almost 3 year old, and I do see how they work. I totally recommend her sessions to anyone looking for some guidance to help their kids.”

“We are so grateful we found Jennie! We moved to Spain from the US and our 5yo was having some speech issues in English.  We couldn’t believe our luck that we found an American pediatric speech therapist here in Madrid.  We started working with Jennie weekly and my son just adores her.  He can’t wait to see his ‘R teacher’ every week and has made so much progress. We initially started in-person sessions but switched to online sessions for convenience.  Like many 5 year olds, he normally can’t sit still but Jennie is able to keep him super engaged and giggling throughout the whole online session.  Not only did we find an American pediatric speech therapist in Madrid, we found an exceptional one.  Thank you, Jennie!”

“Jennie has been an amazing speech therapist for my daughter, who has made great strides in 4 months with Jennie, after being practically non-verbal previously. She has really come out of her shell in no small part due to Jennie’s ability to engage and enable my child to expand her communication skills and vocabulary through play.  Jennie is a committed and highly valued member of the team that supports my child’s developmental needs.  The strategies she implements support our speech and language goals very well.  We benefit greatly from the practical tips that Jennie recommends for us to use at home, helping us to create and use important teachable moments beyond the therapy room.  If she doesn’t immediately know the answer to a question, she proactively researches the issue to help find a solution. Administratively, Jennie is very efficient, flexible, and a great communicator which I have really appreciated as a working parent juggling other therapy sessions for my child during the week. I think Jennie is an exceptional speech therapist and an all-around lovely person who my child and I always look forward to seeing.   I thoroughly recommend her to anyone looking for a good speech language pathologist."

“I have had the opportunity to work with Jennie as our school's wrap around service coordinator. Jennie has worked with students from preK to high school level. She has a keen ability create and implement lessons individualized to the students' interests and their speech goals. Jennie consistently removes behavior barriers by utilizing their optimal way of engagement to target their skill areas. Her ability to do this through online sessions and supporting each students teaching team and parents to promote skill generalization is phenomenal. I have seen students reach their speech language goals having a profound impact on their overall success in communication, academics and socially.  Jennie is a highly skilled professional that we are thankful for the opportunity to work with."

“Our autistic son has been seeing Jennie for about a year and we're encouraged by the progress we've seen him make. We also appreciate how she's involved us in the process at every step and given us tools for helping him grow at home. He lights up with excitement about seeing her because she brings the energy and fun that we just weren't seeing in other speech therapists. She truly goes above and beyond in her efforts, pointing us toward books and resources, taking the time to respond to any questions or struggles we bring up.” -Parent, Spain

“Two of our daughters have had the privilege to work with Jennie as their speech therapist. Our one daughter began working with Jennie at the age of three with an expressive language delay. We had no idea how online speech therapy could be successful for a three year old with her needs. Jennie was able to keep her engaged during short sessions and then increase the sessions to 30 minutes in length as our daughter's stamina increased. Her expressive language made huge growth over the two years Jennie worked with her. She is now exited from direct services, and Jennie continues to support her teachers to ensure she  maintains her speech goals. 

Our other daughter has been working with Jennie for just over a year on articulation goals. Jennie has been able to work with her on her needed goals and incorporate ways for her teachers and us to practice to generalize the skills. Our daughter loves working with Jennie due to the highly engaging and targeted lessons she creates. Jennie's skills as a speech therapist have truly made a life changing difference for our daughters. We are so thankful for the high-quality sessions she has provided and continues to provide online. We highly recommend her for any age or speech need."

Workshop

“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Jennie who shared valuable insights on speech and language strategies for toddlers. Her expertise and passion for the subject were truly evident, making the workshop both informative and engaging. 

I was particularly impressed by the practical tips and strategies offered by her, which I believe will be immensely helpful in improving communication with my toddler. As a first time parent, I found the information shared to be invaluable, and I am confident that I can apply the techniques learned to enhance my child's language development.

Overall, I am grateful for the opportunity to attend the workshop, not only to learn about these techniques but it also opens doors to meeting other parents. Thank you for sharing your expertise and insights with us."

Jennie has been working with my daughter who has a speech delay and she has been fantastic. I've seen my daughter come with her speaking so much since Jennie started working with her and she has loved going to the sessions, Jennie is wonderful with children and makes them so much fun. She had given me great advice about what to work on at home and has followed up each session with written advice which has been extremely helpful. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an English speaking speech therapist for their child!
