Expert Speech Pathology for Children

Communication is complex, and every child’s journey is unique. Our certified speech pathologists work closely with families to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of speech and language disorders. We focus on creating a fun, engaging environment where speech therapy for children feels less like a clinical appointment and more like play with a purpose.

We offer mobile services, clinic-based appointments, and telehealth options to ensure families across all Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Sydney and NSW have access to quality care.

NDIS Speech Therapy

Navigating the National Disability Insurance Scheme can be overwhelming. As a provider experienced with NDIS speech therapy, daar helps families maximise their funding to get the best possible outcomes. We offer NDIS for kids who require support with developmental delays, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and other communication needs. We handle the reporting and goal setting required to ensure your child’s plan is managed effectively.

Stuttering for Children

Fluency disorders can impact a child's self-esteem and social participation. Our team utilises the Lidcombe Program and other evidence-based treatments for stuttering for children. We work with parents to implement strategies at home, ensuring smooth speech becomes a natural part of your child's life.

Social Communication & Pragmatics

Some children struggle with the "unwritten rules" of conversation. Our therapy sessions focus on Social Communication, helping children understand non-verbal cues, turn-taking, and how to build meaningful friendships. This is particularly beneficial for children on the autism spectrum or those with social anxiety.

Speech Sound Disorders & Articulation

If your child is difficult to understand or struggles to pronounce specific sounds, our Speech Pathology for Children services can help. We target articulation and phonological processes to improve speech clarity, making sure they are understood by teachers, peers, and family members.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Do you offer NDIS speech therapy for children?

Yes, daar provides NDIS speech therapy for children across Waverley and the surrounding areas. We support families who are self-managed or plan-managed under the NDIS. Our team is experienced in creating detailed progress reports and setting functional goals that align with your child's NDIS plan, ensuring you get the most out of your funding for NDIS for kids.

Do I need a referral to see a speech pathologist at daar?

Generally, no. As a private allied health service, you can book directly with daar without a referral. However, if you wish to claim a rebate through Medicare (under a Chronic Disease Management Plan or Team Care Arrangement), you will need a referral from your GP. If you are using private health insurance or NDIS funding, a GP referral is typically not required, though we recommend checking your specific policy or plan details.

How do I know if my child needs speech therapy?

You might consider speech therapy for children if your child is struggling to be understood by others, has difficulty following instructions, stutters, or finds it hard to make friends due to social communication challenges. Early intervention is often best, so we recommend booking an assessment with our speech pathologists if you have any concerns about their development.
