Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the Talk With Me Baby (TWMB) program improves the home-language environment for at-risk families with children ages two to six months when primary care providers deliver the program during well-child checkups. The main question it aims to answer is:

Will the TWMB program increase the time a caregiver talks to their infant?

Participants will:

1. Come to at least four well-child checkups
2. Receive the TWMB program from the provider during the checkups
3. Record their conversations with their infant before they receive the program and after they receive the program four times.
