Get to Know Us

QUESTIONS PARENTS ASK

Is this right for us?

No — you can book directly with us. If you're wanting to use NDIS, Medicare or private health, we'll talk you through what’s covered on the first call.
Many kids who speak late catch up — but earlier support tends to mean less worry for everyone. An initial consult will help us be honest about whether you need us yet.
Yes. We work neuro-affirmingly with children and support communication in ways that work for them as well support parents to understand their child's neurotype.
