Does your child panic before doctor or dentist visits?

For some children, medical appointments feel overwhelming - not because they’re “dramatic”… but because they don’t understand what’s happening to their body.

In our Brilliant Bodies group, we practise:
✔️ Labelling body parts
✔️ Talking about where it hurts
✔️ Understanding what doctors and dentists do
✔️ Rehearsing what might happen in an appointment

When children can name their body parts and describe their feelings, they feel safer and more in control.

If your child:
– Gets anxious before appointments
– Can’t explain where something hurts
– Avoids talking about pain

This is a skill we can help build.

Does your child love to explore their creativity with different art materials? 🎨

This upcoming holiday in our Art Alliance group, we’re helping children build confidence with all things art — not just making it, but talking about it, experimenting with it and exploring different materials.

In our group we will:
✔️ Practise describing textures (“rough”, “smooth”, “soft”)
✔️ Build vocabulary by comparing colours, shapes and patterns
✔️ Follow simple steps to create an art piece
✔️ Work on turn‑taking and social communication
✔️ Try new materials in a relaxed, low‑pressure environment

For some children, art activities can feel overwhelming. New textures, unexpected sensations and performance pressure can make it tricky.

In our small group setting, we gently support children to:
• Expand their language
• Increase flexibility with sensory experiences
• Build confidence in creative and social situations

If your child loves art and you want to help harness that passion to develop their communication skills, this group might be a beautiful next step.

We know how challenging it can be to see your child struggle and not know how to help them.

Every day, we work with children to support them in improving their communication skills, such as:
- learning the right sounds to say in words so they can be understood, and not just by close family members!
- using more words so they don't need to use their behaviour to show their big feelings and they can use words instead
- develop the confidence to join in play with peers, to make real friendships

If this is something your child needs help with, we can help!

We will work with you to establish clear goals and work on them together.

We are continually upskilling as a team to ensure optimal care for our clients. In our clinician catch up yesterday we delved into all things related to vocabulary development, following an article from The Informed SLP. We discussed Early Intervention best practice, ways to make parent coaching work, increasing practice amounts in practical ways as well as deciding on goals based on the child's Zone of Proximal Development.

Our NEW Pokemon Pals group yesterday was a hit! It was amazing to see the kids bonding so readily over their shared interest in Pokemon and collaborating on projects over the course of the group 🙌 We also had a lot of language used to describe the different types of Pokemon, their bodies and powers.

We had some amazing learning and fun happening yesterday in our Brilliant Bodies group program. We learned about visiting the doctor and the dentist, labelling body parts and feelings, explored self esteem and so much more, all while having fun together! It is so important for kids to be able to describe their feelings, where things are going on (or going wrong!) in their bodies, so these skills are so important and functional.
