Peep TALK (Talking and Listening Kit) Training
Aims – the Peep TALK Programme Training equips practitioners to:
- expand your knowledge, skills and understanding in supporting parents with their young child’s communication and language development, including those who are concerned about delayed language development

During the training: You will explore practical delivery ideas, strategies and resources, using the Peep TALK Programme. The training values and builds on your knowledge, skills and experience.
The training includes on-going access to the Peep TALK programme, full of practical ideas and activities. It contains eight group or 1:1 sessions, along with ‘Talking at Home’ handouts, tips and video clips for you to share with parents and their children.
Who should attend Peep TALK training:
Peep TALK is for any practitioners working with parents of young children, particularly parents who are concerned about their child’s developing speech, language and communication. This could, for example, include staff in family hubs or centres, children's centres, community centres, or education and childcare settings.
Peep TALK aligns with our other Peep Programmes and Training, focusing on the why, what and how of supporting parents with their children’s development in a fun and flexible way.
Why Peep TALK Training is needed:
Speech, language and communication is the most common type of additional support need identified by primary schools. Early intervention is crucial in supporting children's communication (and preventing problems) in the earliest years, as well as identifying language difficulties early on.
The evidence-informed Peep Talking and Listening Kit was developed by Peeple in collaboration with Speech & Language Therapists, building on our joint work with early years settings and families over the past few years. It can be used to support all children with a developmental age of approximately 18 months to four years, including those waiting to see a speech and language therapist.
Peep TALK delegate feedback:
- "Excellent training, plenty of time to look at all the session plans and it was lovely to see them come to life during the demos."
- "The training gives lots of knowledge and also how to share it with parents and carers in a very accessible way."
