For over 20 years our experienced and passionate Speech Pathologists have provided the highest standard of assessment and treatment for a broad range of communication and learning difficulties.
The Speech Pathologists at Melbourne Child Development (Incorporating Robyn Stephen & Associates) have up to 30 years experience working with families to:
- Engage children to help themselves
- Connect with the important people in their lives
- Empower them with communication skills to facilitate peer relationships at pre-school and school.
Our extensively trained and passionate Speech Pathologists provide intervention for over 100 children and their families each week at our practices at Box Hill South and in schools.
Our practice philosophy has a strong family focus. Your knowledge of your child, is combined with our thorough and skillful assessments to identify any strengths and underlying weaknesses in the foundation skills needed for successful communication and learning. The therapy is then tailored specifically to your child's individual needs, and we coach you so that you understand and can support this therapy.
We help you to make progress faster by creating the therapy around the interests of the children and adolescents, whether it be through play, topic interests, computers, iPads or the school curriculum for older students.
We provide therapy for individuals and coaching for families, teachers and assistants where it is most effective, including at pre-school, childcare, home, and school. We work closely with other professionals involved with your child in order to develop a comprehensive therapy program.
At Melbourne Child Development we are dedicated to helping you help your child reach their potential.
