When reading feels hard, the right support makes all the difference.

At Future Bookworm, we help children build the foundational skills they need to thrive.

Research shows that

1 in 5 children will have difficulty learning to read and write. Many need early, targeted intervention before literacy can take off.

Help your child overcome obstacles by starting weekly intervention with a Speech-Language Pathologist. Feel confident knowing that lessons are based on the Science of Reading. Each session is tailored to individual strengths and challenges.

Hi, I’m Danielle, an SLP and founder of Future Bookworm. I’ve spent years helping children unlock the joy of reading, and I now support a team of skilled, compassionate SLPs who share that same mission. Together, we partner with families to build strong foundations for reading and writing so every child can thrive.

At Future Bookworm, our team understands that learning to read can sometimes feel like climbing a mountain. That’s why we focus on early, evidence-based support that makes the process feel achievable and even exciting. We’re here to nurture each child’s progress, celebrate their growth, and help their literacy skills take root and flourish.
