Paediatric Speech Therapist in Cambridge Park
Who will be my child's speech pathologist?
Your child and your family are important to us and we want to help your child reach their potential. Each time you visit our clinic, you will see the same therapist. This ensures that you and your family are familiar with the therapist responsible for your child’s communication journey. This will allow the therapist to learn how your child learns and changes as they grow.
All of our therapists have a university degree at a minimum and are members of our professional body, Speech Pathology Australia. Our therapists have worked with children of all age with language, speech or spelling difficulties.
Our Therapists need to keep their skills up-to-date. Regular Professional Development Workshops are required to ensure that our Therapists can provide Chatterbox families with the best, most current, research-based therapy.
Speech Pathologists have been specially trained to evaluate and treat children's communication skills.
Don’t wait. Early intervention has been shown to improve the chances of children succeeding in school and at home. In general these difficulties do not just ‘go away’. These difficulties are not caused by your child being lazy. It is possible that your child may avoid talking in certain situations or become frustrated when it comes to homework.
This is because it is simply hard for them. A parent does not cause their child to have these difficulties, however a parent who has found the right advice and support can help their child to achieve success.
