Paediatric Speech Therapist in Rouse Hill
Who will be my child's speech pathologist?
We are committed to your child’s success and will work with you to make sure your family is happy. 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 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 experience working with children of all ages with a range of communication needs, including: language, speech, reading, spelling, stuttering and social skills.
Our Therapists are required to continually update their skills. 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. Children can be helped now and in the future by early intervention. In general these difficulties do not just ‘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’s because it is hard for them. Although a parent cannot cause their child to experience these difficulties, it is possible for them to find the right support and advice to help them.
