14.01.2022 Mouth breathing (like the baby pictured)?Drooling? Poor sleep? Snoring? A baby that can’t latch properly to feed? Milk supply quickly running out? Reliance on a dummy or thumb sucking? Reflux? Hyperactivity? Lisping in speech? TMJ pain? Tension headaches? All of these things (any so many others) are signs that there may be a structural and functional issue to do with the teeth, tongue, lips, jaw, airway, and/or oral musculature. This week I trained in Orofacial Myological Disorders across the lifespan. I cannot believe what I’ve learned and how much it will change the way I work with families! If you’re worried about any of the above, I can help!



14.01.2022 The power of a Kmart garbage truck It has pulled us through hours and hours of therapy this week, and helped us say hundreds of target words and sounds. Therapy should be FUN and motivating for every child. If that means pretending to be a garbage truck driver with an immense passion for junk, then let’s do it!

11.01.2022 This Easter I was excited to see so many parents (or Easter Bunnies) substituting bunny chocolates with bunny books! What a great idea to keep literacy alive over the holidays. I can’t go past the classics

09.01.2022 I love this! But a huge factor missing in this diagram is COMMUNICATION. Challenges with communication can result in unexpected ‘behaviours’ at home and school. If I couldn’t understand what anyone was saying in my classroom, I’d probably be rolling around on the floor trying to occupy myself too! We need to look deeper at ‘behaviours’ to find out why they are really happening.



05.01.2022 Last week I was reminded with several clients about the importance of regular hearing checks for kids. Frequent ear infections can impact on hearing and disrupt speech, language and literacy development. More alarming is that many kids have ‘glue ear’ (wax and fluid build up) which can have no symptoms at all! Many schools offer free hearing screening in Prep. However, there’s no minimum age to get a hearing check, and no referral needed. Better to be safe than sorry - book in with an audiologist for peace of mind!
