Well Child Communication Check
I have over 20 years experience of working with parents and early years settings. I have a Specialist interest in early intervention and facilitating parents and professionals to support the communication development of children from 0-5 years.
​
Research indicates the importance of the first 1001 days of life in a child's development. These early years play a significant role in a child’s development, shaping their physical, cognitive, social, and emotional well-being. During this phase, communication and interaction are vital for a child’s growth and learning.
Parents, caregivers and family members play a critical role in facilitating communication and interactions during the first 1001 days. Engaging in responsive interactions, talking, singing, and reading to the child supports their communication and language development.
​
Kew Speech and Language offers you the opportunity to explore your communication style and have expert advice to understand and facilitate your child's communication journey through the pre-school years.
