1 in 5 children experience developmental delays, according to research.
Every baby develops at their own pace, and no two journeys are the same. That’s why it’s so important to notice early signs of delay and speak with a qualified healthcare provider.
With early support, children can make meaningful progress in speech, learning, social interaction, and self-confidence. The earlier we take action, the stronger the foundation we build for lifelong success.
How does Speech Therapy help children and adults?
At Esperanza Speech and Occupational Therapy Centre, our experienced Speech and Language Therapists offer evidence-based, compassionate support for both children and adults:
For Children
- Speech & Language Delays – Whether it’s late talking, unclear speech, or difficulties with social communication, autism, or ADHD, we use a holistic, child-led approach to build confidence and connection.
- Oral Motor & Feeding Therapy – We help children improve the strength and coordination needed for eating, swallowing, and speaking safely.
- Dysphagia Support – Our team supports children with swallowing difficulties, including those with complex medical needs, ensuring safety and comfort.
- AAC – Our team supports children with limited or no verbal speech by providing tools, like picture boards or speech-generating devices—to help them communicate effectively.
- Cochlear Implant Therapy – Our specialised team works closely with children who have received cochlear implants to develop listening and spoken language skills. Therapy is personalised to help each child make sense of sound, communicate with confidence, and thrive in everyday settings.
- Behavioural Challenges – Through close collaboration with our multidisciplinary team, we address emotional regulation, attention, and behaviour to support meaningful participation at home, school, and in the community.
For Adults
- Speech, Language & Swallowing Therapy – We provide person-centered care for adults recovering from stroke, or living with dementia, Parkinson’s disease, or multiple sclerosis, focusing on improving communication, cognitive function, and safe swallowing.
