About SaynPlay

Founded by licensed Speech-Language Pathologists who believe play is the most powerful tool for connection, communication, and development.

Our Story

SaynPlay was born from a simple belief: play is not just fun. It is how young children learn to communicate, connect, and understand the world around them.

As licensed Speech Language Pathologists with extensive experience working with toddlers, early childhood development, and children with special needs, we saw firsthand how traditional therapy settings could feel clinical and stressful, especially for our youngest clients and their families.

We dreamed of creating something different. We wanted a space where developmental support happens naturally through joy, exploration, and sensory rich experiences. A place where kids learn best through play, connection, and feeling safe.

We wanted to build a community where every child feels celebrated, where parents feel supported and reassured, and where play is recognized as the powerful developmental tool it truly is. That's why we founded SaynPlay.

Today, we're honored to serve families in our community through playgroups, parties, inclusive programming, and custom experiences that put connection before correction and celebrate every child's unique journey.

Our Mission & Values

Connection Before Correction

Every child belongs. We celebrate neurodiversity and honor each child's unique way of being in the world.

Play With Purpose

Every activity is intentionally designed to support development while keeping joy at the center.

Expert-Guided, Parent-Supported

We bring clinical expertise without the clinical feel, empowering parents with knowledge and confidence.

Why Speech-Language Pathologists?

Speech-Language Pathologists are uniquely trained in how children develop communication, language, social skills, attention, engagement, and emotional regulation—and how all of these skills are nurtured through play.

This isn't therapy—it's developmentally informed enrichment. We bring our clinical expertise to create experiences that naturally support your child's growth without the pressure or structure of a therapy setting.

We understand the critical connection between sensory play and language development, how to scaffold experiences that meet children at their developmental level, and how to support diverse learners including children with special needs.

Our background means we can spot natural opportunities for language modeling, create truly inclusive environments, and support your child's unique communication journey—all while keeping play joyful and pressure-free.

Most importantly? We know that childhood is precious, connection matters more than perfection, and kids learn best when they feel safe, supported, and celebrated.
