SPEECH THERAPY
Pediatric Speech Therapy at Leaps & Bounds
Helping Children Communicate with Confidence
At Leaps & Bounds Pediatric Therapy, our speech-language pathologists and speech-language pathology assistants help children develop the communication skills they need to express themselves, connect with others, and thrive in everyday life. Whether your child is learning their first words or refining their speech and language for school success, we’re here to support their journey.
We serve families across the Inland Empire and Orange County, offering therapy in both clinic and ranch settings. Our play-based approach and sensory-rich environments—including access to hippotherapy (if appropriate) —create a natural and engaging space for communication growth.
