ABSTRACT

Background: language is a fundamental mechanism in human communication which has a positive influence on the psychological sphere of the individual. In children with Down syndrome, language disorders are common although there are programs which have been designed for parents and educators, which should be extended and adjusted to apply them to the families of these children.
Objectives: to increase knowledge about language disorders through an educational strategy for the parents of children with Down syndrome in a special nursery.
Methods: we applied an educational strategy with a pre-test / post- test ambispective design study to explore the knowledge that a group of parents had on language development of children with Down syndrome, enrolled in a special nursery. The study was divided into three phases: the initial phase in which a survey was applied, the second phase in which workshops were applied to all parents, and the third phase which consisted on the implementation of the initial survey.
Results: after the workshops, all parents recognized language disorders in their children. The participation in the stimulation increased significantly achieving that 19 (90.5%) of them were very cooperative. The perspectives for future development improved significantly because 14 (66.7%) parents were present.
Conclusions: parents´ knowledge about language disorders increased after the education strategy that was developed for them.
