Or, do you wish to be guided on how to better support your child with their speech, language or literacy (reading and spelling) skills?
Parents whose children are on a speech pathology provider’s waitlist can opt to use our SLP@Home Guided Therapy Plans as DIY speech therapy and independently advance their child’s speech and language skills with ongoing access to support instead of (while) waiting for services.
Attending therapy just once a week is hardly sufficient for expedited skill mastery. However, I also understand that it may not always be financially or schedule-wise feasible to commit to 2 sessions of speech therapy on a weekly basis. Most progress is realised when parents are able to ‘generalise’ the concepts being targeted in the session, at home.
To ensure that our clients are constantly realising gains, they are supported with ongoing activities that they can use to extend what is being targeted during their child’s session.
We are making these plans accessible to other parents whose children are experiencing similar communication difficulties.
Parents also get access to support on demand through our ‘live’ forum where all their questions can be answered.

Did you know that speech pathologists (who specialise in literacy disorders) can identify children who are at risk of developing learning difficulties (reading, writing, spelling, Maths, and comprehension difficulties) from as early as preschool age? Early intervention can significantly alter your child’s outcomes and set them on a path of academic success.
Literacy skills are strongly linked with phonological awareness (explicit awareness of the sound structure of words) and PA skills are in turn strongly linked with communication (speech and language) skills. So, you can say that literacy skills are very much linked to speech and language skills.
I have created a Literacy Program for parents (and, caregivers) that spans from the early years up to school-age years, that aims to teach your child the fundamentals of reading in order for them to have a solid foundation and subsequently advance smoothly in their acquisition of literacy skills (reading, spelling and writing).

If your child is experiencing reading difficulties, I have provided a screener (brief exam) that can be used to determine which level they should start on.
