Help Your Child Communicate Better
Communication is a basic skill that shapes how children interact with the world.

Speech and language therapy can be the answer to help your child unlock their full potential and give them the tools to communicate with confidence.
What is Speech and Language Therapy?
Speech and language therapy is a type of treatment to address a variety of communication disorders in children. These disorders can include difficulties with articulation, language comprehension, fluency and social communication skills. The goal of speech and language therapy is to help children communicate more effectively whether it’s through spoken language, gestures or alternative communication methods.
Speech and Language Therapy Components
Speech language pathologists (SLPs) work with children to develop and build their communication skills through:
- Articulation Therapy: Helping children say sounds correctly.
- Language Intervention: Building vocabulary, sentence structure and comprehension.
- Fluency Therapy: Helping children who stutter to speak more fluently.
- Social Communication Therapy: Helping children understand and use communication in social situations.
Why Speech and Language Therapy for Your Child?

- Better Academic Performance: By improving language comprehension and expression children can understand instructions, participate in class discussions and perform better academically.
- Better Social Skills: Developing communication skills means children can interact more easily with peers, make friends and participate in social activities.
- More Confidence: As children become more able to express themselves their self esteem and confidence grows and they have more positive interactions and experiences
