At LEAP Centre, we offer comprehensive paediatric speech therapy services, focusing on helping children of all ages overcome challenges in communication, language, feeding, and speech. Our team of experienced speech therapists is committed to assisting each child in developing the crucial skills needed for effective expression and comprehension. We address a wide range of issues, from articulation disorders and language delays to stuttering, voice disorders, and challenges with social communication.
Our approach is rooted in understanding the unique needs of each child. We conduct thorough assessments as needed to tailor our therapy plans, ensuring that every session is as effective as it is engaging. Using a mix of traditional techniques and innovative methods, we strive to make each therapy session a positive and encouraging experience.
In addition to direct therapy, we believe in empowering parents and caregivers with the knowledge and strategies to support their child’s development at home. We provide resources and guidance for at-home exercises and activities, ensuring that the benefits of therapy extend beyond our sessions.
Our goal is not just to improve specific speech and language skills, but also to enhance overall confidence and social interaction abilities. Whether it’s helping a toddler pronounce their first words clearly or aiding a school-aged child in effective conversation skills, our aim is to support the long-term communication success of every child we work with.
At our centre, we are dedicated to providing a supportive, welcoming environment where children can grow, learn, and thrive in their communication journey.
Sessions are now available in clinic, at home, at school, or at daycare!
At LEAP Centre, we understand the importance of early intervention and specialised care when it comes to addressing speech and language challenges in children. Our paediatric speech therapy services are designed to provide comprehensive support for children of all ages, from infants to adolescents, who may be experiencing difficulties with communication development.
Communication is an essential skill that impacts every aspect of a child’s life, from social interactions and academic success to emotional well-being. When a child experiences delays or difficulties in speech and language development, it can affect their ability to express themselves effectively and engage with the world around them. Paediatric speech therapy offers a solution by providing targeted interventions to address these challenges and help children reach their full communication potential.
At LEAP Centre, we take a holistic approach to paediatric speech therapy, recognising that each child is unique and may require individualised care. Our team of experienced speech-language pathologists begins by conducting a comprehensive assessment (either formal or informally) to evaluate your child’s speech and language skills, as well as any underlying factors that may be contributing to their difficulties.
We develop personalised treatment plans tailored to meet your child’s specific needs and goals. Our therapy sessions are interactive, and engaging, creating a supportive environment where children can learn and grow. Through a combination of fun activities, exercises, and strategies, we target areas such as articulation, language comprehension, vocabulary development, social communication skills, literacy, fluency, and more.
The benefits of paediatric speech therapy extend far beyond improved communication skills. By addressing speech and language challenges early on, we can help children build confidence, enhance their self-esteem, and foster positive relationships with peers and family members. Speech therapy can also have a significant impact on academic success, as children who are better able to communicate effectively are better equipped to participate in classroom activities, follow instructions, and express their thoughts and ideas.
Our paediatric speech therapy services are suitable for children with a wide range of speech and language disorders, including but not limited to:
We understand that every family’s needs are different, which is why we offer flexible service options to accommodate busy schedules and unique circumstances.

At LEAP Centre, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to communicate effectively and confidently. Our paediatric speech therapy services are designed to empower children to overcome communication challenges, unlock their full potential, and thrive in all aspects of life.
