What CommuniKids helps with

Speech Pathology Assessments

Assessment and treatment of communication difficulties including speech sounds, language development, stuttering, voice, and feeding and swallowing. Speech pathologists work with children and adults to help them communicate clearly and confidently.

Speech Therapy

Early Language Development

Therapy and support to help children build understanding and use of language — including vocabulary, grammar, listening comprehension and conversational skills. Delivered by a speech pathologist, it addresses both what a child understands and how they express themselves.

Literacy Support

Targeted teaching and therapy to help children develop reading, writing and spelling skills, including support for dyslexia, language disorders and learning difficulties. Structured, evidence-based approaches build the foundations of literacy from the ground up.

Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC)

Support for individuals who have difficulty communicating verbally, using tools such as picture boards, speech-generating devices and apps. AAC therapists assess communication needs and teach both the individual and their support network to use these systems effectively.

Social Communication

Gestalt Language Processing

Therapy approach for children using gestalt language processing.

Feeding/Mealtime Skills

Support for mealtime and feeding skills development.

Autism Assessment

A multi-disciplinary evaluation that determines whether a child or adult meets the criteria for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It usually involves observation, standardised assessments and parent or teacher interviews, resulting in a diagnostic report that opens access to therapy and NDIS supports.

Parent Consultations

Guidance and skill-building for parents and carers to better understand their child's development, manage challenging behaviours and build a warm, secure relationship. Programs may be one-on-one or delivered in groups and draw on evidence-based frameworks tailored to the family's needs.

Telehealth and Mobile Services

Services provided via telehealth or at schools and day cares.

Our approach

CommuniKids uses a collaborative approach to speech therapy, recognising that children benefit when their families play a positive role in supporting them. The team values input from teachers and other health professionals who know the child. Each child receives an individual speech therapy plan tailored to their specific needs, starting with a comprehensive assessment. Sessions focus on helping children overcome communication difficulties while having fun, with the goal of enabling them to become effective, confident communicators. The therapists work across a broad range of speech, language, literacy and communication needs using various evidence-based treatment systems.

Working with families

CommuniKids recognises that families play a vital role in their child's progress and uses a collaborative approach that actively involves parents and carers. The team values communication and cooperation with families, as well as with teachers and other professionals involved in the child's care. By involving parents in the therapy process, the service aims to help families feel confident in supporting their children and achieving agreed therapy goals together.

Your first visit

At the first appointment, CommuniKids conducts a comprehensive assessment to understand your child's speech and language development and identify any areas of difficulty. The assessment is bespoke to your child's needs and forms the foundation for creating an individual speech therapy plan. The team uses their expertise and experience in speech pathology to thoroughly evaluate your child's communication skills across different areas. This initial assessment allows the therapists to understand your child's unique situation and determine the best course of support moving forward.
