Speech Pathology

Supporting Your Child’s Communication Journey

Speech Pathology Session

What is Speech Pathology?

Speech pathology, also known as speech therapy, is a specialised service that supports individuals who have difficulties with communication, language, speech sounds, voice, or even swallowing. A qualified professional, called a speech-language pathologist (SLP), works with children to build essential communication skills needed for everyday life.

What Does a Speech Therapist Do?

Our Speech therapists assess, diagnose, and create personalised therapy plans to help children with:

  • Speech clarity – helping children pronounce sounds and words correctly
  • Language development – understanding and using words, sentences, and concepts
  • Social communication – learning to take turns and engage in conversations
  • Voice therapy – improving pitch, tone, and vocal quality
  • Feeding and swallowing – helping children who struggle with eating or drinking safely

The therapy sessions are tailored to your child’s unique needs and developmental stage. We use fun, play-based activities and evidence-based strategies to help children feel comfortable and confident while learning.

When Should You Consider Speech Therapy?

If your child:

  • Is slow to start talking
  • Is difficult to understand
  • Has trouble following instructions or answering questions
  • Shows signs of frustration when communicating
  • Has been diagnosed with autism, apraxia of speech, or developmental delays

... then speech therapy at Healthy Kids at Play can make a meaningful difference.
