25.01.2022 This is often something I reassure parents about in sessions; the use of signs or visuals is only going to have a positive impact on a childs communication skills.

25.01.2022 Such a wonderfully inclusive community!

25.01.2022 Why its important to seek helper sooner rather than later if your child is delayed with their language skills.

24.01.2022 Some lovely ideas on how to help support pre-language skills in your children.

24.01.2022 Play is such a vital part of children’s learning. When it looks like we may just be playing in a speech pathology session, we are actually teaching a range of skills including language, problem solving, imagination, sequencing, fine motor skills, social skills....the list goes on! Don’t underestimate the power of playing with your child

23.01.2022 Many parents bring their concerns about their child not talking and all too often are told Let’s just wait and see by pediatricians- and often other parents a...nd family members as well. But, this approach is outdated and has a negative impact on children with language delays. As parents, we want to set our kids up for success- and that means NOT waiting until your child has a SIGNIFICANT delay before you seek intervention- especially when you had concerns previously. So, go ahead and get an evaluation when you are first concerned- YOU ARE NOT CRAZY for doing this- even if your child turns out to not need therapy. The earlier intervention is started, the better likelihood your child will catch up to age level expectations and at a quicker rate! See more

22.01.2022 Celebrate every milestone

21.01.2022 For all those parents who are considering the wait and see approach, please read below. This post emphasises the negative impact the wait and see approach can have on your childs development.

21.01.2022 Such an important distinction!

19.01.2022 Social Communication Disorder: what is it? How can it be diagnosed? and What treatments are available?

19.01.2022 Beautiful way to think of/describe Autism

17.01.2022 Every parent wants to ensure that their child is developing in line with their peers. However, I have found that when it comes to speech and language skills, parents are often less confident in knowing what their child should be able to do for their age. Speech Pathology Australia has created a number of resources around communication milestones in children, this example gives an overall snap shot of what communication skills to expect in children 12 months up to 5 years.

17.01.2022 Reading to your child is not only good for them but it has benefits for you as a parent too.

15.01.2022 Its not just about what you say to your child but about HOW you say it! Conversational turns are vitally important in the language and social development of children.

14.01.2022 There’s so much more to books than you think! Watch this great clip on how to use books with your children to support their language development.

13.01.2022 "You will become an army for your child."

13.01.2022 Theres so much more to books than you think! Watch this great clip on how to use books with your children to support their language development.

12.01.2022 When working with children on the Autism Spectrum I find a lot of them have a strong interest in music. This young man who is Blind and has Autism shows how nurturing a childs passion can help open so many doors!! What a voice!!

09.01.2022 An adorable example of how communication is about so much more than just the spoken word! Having conversations with your children from an early age is so important in language development.

09.01.2022 The importance of talking to your child, even if they cant answer you back yet.

08.01.2022 The majority of parents I have worked with who have a child with Autism have experienced a meltdown at least once with their child, this article has some helpful advice from adults with Autism on things they found useful as children during their own meltdowns.

07.01.2022 When working with parents, one of the first things I often talk to them about is reducing questions and increasing comments, i.e. modelling the language they want their child to use. The link below gives examples of what to say instead of using questions to help your child learn to use words.

06.01.2022 A great article to reassure parents youre not alone when you say your child is always so well behaved with other people compared to at home. Remember home is a safe place...

05.01.2022 A lovely video to that gives a little insight into what Autism is.

03.01.2022 Happy Speech Pathology week everyone! Remember: - Communication is a basic human right - 1.2 million Australians live with communication disability and often these disabilities are invisible ... - Communication is MORE than just speech When communicating with someone with a communication difficulty, be patient, listen carefully and dont be afraid to let them know if you are having difficulty understanding them. People with a communication disability are often very skilled in getting their message across in more than one way.
