Services for children: It's as easy as A, B, C

 Step A Assessments are conducted in our friendly clinic at The Parenting Place

Step B  A treatment plan is then formed with you and your child (and their pre/school if necessary) to begin the process of improving their speech, language, literacy and/or social skills.  Therapy is designed to be fun and rewarding and to reach you and your child's goals.  Some examples of goals:

• Begin to talk.... and talk more!
• Play and socialise with friends and form better friendships
• Speak more clearly
• Listen, in order to follow instructions and learn in school
• Reduce the hoarseness of their voice
• Improve talking after bouts of poor hearing (due to ear infections etc.)

Step C We review the therapy plan at key stages to establish progress and revise goals.  Some children require only a short block of therapy (6-10 weeks).  Others may require ongoing therapy depending on what you and your child want to acheive.

• Talk more and socialise with their friends more
• Read confidently
