At Bilingua Speech Therapy, we provide bilingual pediatric speech and language services for children and families throughout Chula Vista and surrounding South County communities. We offer a welcoming, play-based environment where children can build communication skills through meaningful interactions, everyday routines, and activities that reflect their individual interests and strengths.

Founded by Dinah Marrujo, M.A., M.S., CCC-SLP, Bilingua Speech Therapy is grounded in more than 12 years of experience in bilingual education and pediatric speech-language services. As a former bilingual classroom teacher and school-based speech-language pathologist, Dinah has supported children from preschool through eighth grade and has collaborated closely with families, educators, special education teams, and IEP teams.

Her clinical experience includes supporting children with a wide range of communication and developmental needs, including autism, Down syndrome, ADHD, AAC users, and Gestalt language processors. This combined background in education and speech-language pathology allows Bilingua to look beyond isolated speech or language skills and consider how children communicate, learn, connect, and participate across their daily lives.

Today, Bilingua provides services through both our Chula Vista therapy office and natural environments such as the home and community, depending on each child's needs and goals. Our approach is child-led, play-based, family-centered, and culturally responsive, with a strong emphasis on parent coaching and practical strategies that families can carry into everyday life.

As a bilingual and bicultural practice, we value the role that language, culture, family, and connection play in a child's development. We support families in nurturing meaningful communication in English, Spanish, or both, while honoring each child's unique developmental journey.
