We love helping and making a difference in children’s lives!
Children develop their language skills at different rates, but there is a general pattern to children’s talking and listening skills.
If your child is having difficulty understanding what you say, and/or being understood by others, we highly recommended a full speech and language assessment.
Children use language to:
- Learn about themselves
- Learn about their own, and other cultures
- Participate in class
- Interact with others and form friendships
- Analyse information
- Use their imagination
- Make decisions about personal and social issues
When to seek help
Any difficulties with speech and/or language development can lead to difficulties academically and in participating socially with peers.
A speech pathologist is professionally trained to advise, diagnose and work with people of all ages who have difficulty communicating.
If you have concerns about your child’s speech or language, or if he/she sounds different to the ages and stages outlined in our developmental milestones guide, phone us on 4721 4766 to speak with one of our friendly speech pathologists.
