Hello there!

I'm Mindy Hudon, a passionate speech-language pathologist, author, and creator of innovative educational tools. Throughout my career, I've dedicated myself to empowering children and adults alike to overcome communication challenges and develop essential life skills.

I am the Co-founder of Achieve Speech & Language Services, a small independent private practice in northeastern Connecticut.

Among my proudest accomplishments is the Bee A Time Keeper® Clock, recognized as Creative Child Magazine’s 2019 Educational Product of the Year. This clock isn't just about telling time—it's about helping young children understand the passage of time in a fun and engaging way. With its vibrant visuals and lovable critters, it's designed to teach time concepts while enhancing transition expectations, making it a valuable asset for children ages 3-9 both at home and in school.

As a specialist in executive function skills, particularly time management, I'm passionate about helping children "see and feel" time. Through my work, I've seen firsthand how this experience empowers them to become better self-managers, leading to improved planning, transitional, and self-regulation skills.

But my contributions extend beyond educational tools. I'm also the proud author of the award-winning graphic novel, Kodi’s Adventures: How I Learned to Defeat the Time Snatcher. This captivating tale has received accolades including the 2023 Readers’ Choice Award Bronze Medal Winner in the Children/Educational Genre, as well as being named a 2023 Finalist in the Mom’s Choice Awards best in family-friendly media, products, and services. Additionally, it was recognized as a finalist in the 2023 Best Book Awards Children’s Educational category by AmericanBookFest.com.

Drawing from my own experiences as a struggling reader, I crafted Kodi's Adventures to engage readers of all levels while providing invaluable executive function strategies. I believe in the transformative power of storytelling and its ability to boost confidence and self-esteem, particularly for struggling readers.

Join me on this journey of empowerment and transformation as we revolutionize the way children perceive time and help them become confident, capable individuals. Together, we can make a lasting impact in the lives of children everywhere.

Best,
