Paediatric Speech Pathology
Nurturing Young Voices: Sound & Strength’s Paediatric Speech Pathology
At Sound and Strength, we believe that each child deserves the right support to communicate confidently from the earliest years. Our paediatric speech pathology services provide specialist care for children facing communication or swallowing challenges. We combine decades of experience in South Australia’s health sector to deliver high-quality interventions in homes, schools, and community settings. Led by Annabella Facchin, our passionate team believes in client-centred therapy that empowers every child and their family.
We understand that access to speech pathology in regional and remote areas can be limited. That’s why Sound and Strength offers mobile services across Adelaide and surrounding regions, as well as telepractice support. Our commitment is always to tailor therapy to each child’s strengths and challenges, helping them find their voice and thrive socially, academically, and emotionally.
Sound and Strength brings together diverse backgrounds in acute care, rehabilitation, aged care, and educational settings. Our philosophy is centred on achieving functional outcomes and fostering lasting confidence in young clients. We advocate for children and families through cooperation with healthcare professionals, teachers, and support agencies.
Empowering Families: Our Paediatric Speech Pathology Services
Sound and Strength offers a comprehensive range of paediatric speech pathology services, designed for children of all ages. We specialise in diagnosing and treating communication delays, speech or language disorders, fluency issues such as stuttering, and voice concerns in young clients. Our service supports children with developmental disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, and articulation challenges, providing assistance at every stage of their growth.
We start with detailed, compassionate assessments to understand your child’s unique needs. Our speech pathologists set clear, family-focused goals and create individualised treatment plans. Sessions are warm and engaging, blending evidence-based strategies with playful, hands-on activities that make learning enjoyable. We aim to build strong relationships with children, making therapy a motivating and rewarding experience.
Sound and Strength works closely with families, schools, and allied health professionals. We provide intervention, education, and ongoing support in multiple environments, including home visits, telehealth appointments, and sessions in community hubs. We strive to empower parents with practical skills, share progress, and celebrate every milestone along your child’s journey.
