Speech Assessment Packages

Is your child tricky to understand?
Not using as many words as expected?
Or just needing a bit of extra support to get things moving?
We’ve launched two new Telehealth speech and language support packages, designed to give families clarity, direction, and tools to support their child at home, no referral or long waitlist required.

Early Language Support
Early years language-12

For Toddlers Who Are Slow to Talk or Using Fewer Words Than Expected

Great for children aged 18 months–3 years who:

✔️ Aren’t saying as many words as expected
✔️ Are having trouble putting words together
✔️ Need a little help getting started with communication

You’ll connect with a speech pathologist for a 45-minute online session using an observation and discussion-based approach. Afterward, you’ll receive:
✔️ A personalised home plan
✔️ A session summary within 48 hours
✔️ A digital pack full of everyday strategies and routines

These new packages are now bookable online, making it easier than ever to get started

Speech Support
Early Years-18

For Children Who Are Hard to Understand or Struggling With Sounds

Perfect for kids aged 3+ who:
✔️ Are tricky to understand
✔️ Mix up or miss certain sounds
✔️ Are getting frustrated when trying to speak

This 45-minute Telehealth session includes a gentle speech screener and discussion with a qualified speech pathologist. Families receive:
✔️ A written summary and clear goals
✔️ Easy-to-use home strategies
✔️ A digital toolkit with games and resources matched to your child

Progress Pathway

Ongoing Support That Grows With Your Child

Want continued guidance after your first session? The Progress Pathway includes everything from the initial 45-minute Speech or Early Language Support session, plus:

✔️ Two 30-minute check-in sessions (usually at 3 and 6 months)
✔️ Ongoing email access to your speech pathologist
✔️ Updated goals and a refreshed resource pack as your child progresses

This pathway is ideal for families who want time, flexibility, and regular check-ins without the pressure of weekly appointments.

If we feel during the first session that your child may need a different type of support — such as more regular therapy or a referral — our team will communicate that clearly and work with you to find the best next step. Your child’s progress and your peace of mind will always come first.

Let’s Find the Right Fit Together

We know every child’s communication journey is different — and that finding the right support can sometimes feel overwhelming. That’s why we offer a range of flexible online and in-clinic speech pathology appointments that you can book directly through our website.

Whether you’re looking for a quick check-in or a more in-depth consult, our team is here to help you take that first step with confidence.

Short on time or just wanting to touch base?
Try a 20-minute Quick Consult or a 30-minute Standard Consult — great for initial questions, progress check-ins, or getting expert advice on whether your child may need further support.

Looking for a fresh start or a reset?
Our 60-minute NDIS Initial or Review Consults are ideal for families seeking a comprehensive assessment, updated strategies, or re-engagement with speech therapy after a break.

Every consult is delivered by one of our qualified paediatric speech pathologists who’ll listen, guide and help map out the next best steps for your child.
