Testimonials

  • “Vanessa was fantastic with my 4.5yo son who struggled with pronunciation of quite a few sounds. She is well experienced and could immediately identify and provide ways for him to correct his verbal communication, all done with such patience and understanding. Most of all, everything was done through play and fun games - he always had a blast, never truly realising it was actually a place to learn and assist his speech. Vanessa would always provide me as a parent with tips for home, which I found really helpful in reinforcing what we had learnt at therapy. My son has finished his program now but loved it so much he still asks if he can go back!”
