Laura Hall, M.S. CCC-SLP Speech-Language Pathologist Hi! I'm Laura - a certified speech-language pathologist. I received my bachelors in science at the University of Illinois and my masters in science at Illinois State University. My husband's career as a pilot in the National Guard has taken us to Texas, Arizona, and now Alabama - where we reside with our children. I have worked as a speech-language pathologist in skilled nursing, pediatric home health, and in the pediatric clinical settings. I LOVE working with children and their families. I began Little Peach Feeding and Speech in 2019 in Prattville, Alabama. We love serving the local community and we are proud to also have the opportunity to serve the military community!

Bailey Williams, M.S. CF-SLP Speech-language pathologist Hello everyone! I'm Bailey! I received my B.S. in Communication Disorders from Auburn University (War Eagle) and my M.S. in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of South Alabama. My favorite part about speech therapy is that it is multifaceted. There are so many ways to engage clients in activities that stimulate speech and language skills. There's never a dull moment! I am a native of this area. I grew up on a small farm in Marbury. During my free time, I can be found with my husband, Josh and my toy poodle named Penelope! We enjoy hiking, traveling, and spending time with family on Lake Martin. I am excited to be a part of the Little Peach Feeding and Speech team and the opportunity to service the families in the area! |
Emily Guarino, M.S. OTR Occupational Therapist Hi! I'm Emily. I have a B.A. in Psychology and received a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from University of Alabama at Birmingham in 2008. I have worked with the pediatric population my entire career in a variety of settings including: Early Intervention, private outpatient therapy clinics, inpatient and outpatient hospital, school system, and non-profit organizations. I love what I do and helping families in any way I can. I have experience working with premature babies, birth to 3 years population, autism spectrum disorder, sensory processing, and feeding difficulties. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my fiance, Brett, and our two fur babies; Finn a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and Bella a cat that believes she is a princess. We enjoy watching and attending sporting events and traveling. Fun fact about me: I lived and worked as an occupational therapist in Africa for a short period of time. There I was able to live out all of my wildlife dreams by going on safaris, sitting with lions, and cage diving with great white sharks! I am excited to be a part of the Little Peach Feeding and Speech family!
