Noah’s Speech Pathologists work with children with a disability or additional need that influences their communication skills, including speaking, listening, understanding language, reading, writing and social skills. They also help children who have difficulty safely swallowing food and drinks.
The main aim of speech pathology is to develop skills to assist your child to communicate more effectively. The outcome of therapy varies depending on the individual child, however, benefits may include:
- Greater ability to understand and express thoughts, ideas and feelings
- Improved speech so your child can be more easily understood by others
- Development of problem-solving skills
- Improved swallowing function and safety
- Achievement of school readiness skills
- Better use of practical social skills
- Enhanced quality of life with greater self-esteem
- Increased independence
Noah’s Speech Pathologists work with the child, their family and other significant figures in the child’s life, like their teacher or health professionals. They are passionate about assisting children to develop communication skills that are the building blocks for independence and opportunity.
