River Valley Carriage House

Carriage House Preschool River Valley Speech provides specialized speech and language services for children in Poughkeepsie, New York. Serving the community for more than twenty years, the organization helps children with communication disorders develop effective skills that support learning, everyday participation, and quality of life. Its team of speech therapists and special educators is professionally licensed and teacher-certified by the New York State Education Department.

Services include assessment, diagnosis, and treatment for a range of speech and language disorders, with individualized, evidence-based plans tailored to each child. Therapy takes place in a play-based environment, reflecting the organization’s emphasis on play as a way to build communication skills. The “Let’s Talk” program combines preschool activities with speech and language treatment in a structured group setting, giving children opportunities to practice skills in a supportive environment. Individual therapy is also available on-site and in community settings, including day cares and preschools.
