Paediatric Speech Therapist in Kellyville
Who will be my child’s speech pathologist and who will I ask?
Your child and your family are important to us and we want to help your child reach their potential. You will see the same therapist every time you visit us at the clinic. This allows your child and your family to get to know the therapist who will guide your child’s communication journey. This also means the therapist will become familiar with how your child learns as their skills change and develop.
All of our therapists have a university degree at a minimum and are members of our professional body, Speech Pathology Australia. Our therapists have extensive experience working with children with communication difficulties, such as language, speech, spelling, stuttering, and social skills.
The Therapists at Chatterbox are required to continue their education. They attend regular Professional Development Workshops so that they can continue to provide Chatterbox families with the most up-to date, research based therapy.
Speech Pathologists are specifically trained to evaluate and treat communication skills in children.
Don’t wait. Early intervention has been shown to improve the chances of children succeeding in school and at home. These difficulties don’t simply ‘go away”. These difficulties do not occur because your child is lazy. It is possible that your child may avoid talking in certain situations or become frustrated when it comes to homework.
It is simply because they find it difficult While a parent can’t cause their child these problems, a parent who provides the right advice and support can help her child achieve success.
