INFORMATION FOR PARENTS
As parents know their child best, it is very important to work together as part of a team. I can offer a range of services, including an initial assessment of your child, direct or indirect therapy, and follow-up reviews of progress. I can also assess your child and provide a detailed report in support of an Education and Health Care Plan, and work closely with nurseries and schools to support delivery of therapy in those settings if appropriate.
