A speech-language therapist is also sometimes called a speech therapist, a speech-language pathologist (SLP), a speech pathologist, or an SLP.
Our job is to look at all areas of communication development in children, from birth to school entry, to determine any areas of concern and provide suggestions and support to develop and improve those skills.
Our cut-off for accepting new referrals for children entering Kindergarten in the fall is March 1st.
We may suggest that your child would benefit from a period of regular speech-language therapy – that could be once or twice a month
Communication happens every day all day long. When children are having challenges with communication development, it is important to take advantage of all the everyday opportunities to teach them new or better skills and to make communication fun and functional.
You are your child’s best teacher because you see them every day and are there every time they need or want something. Those are the most precious teaching moments.
We partner with you to help build your child’s communication skills by teaching you how to take advantage of all those “teachable moments”.
If you have concerns about your child’s communication development please contact the centre, and/or make a referral
R.E.S.T. Workshop
We received physiotherapy for our daughter who was being considered for a helmet for plagiocephaly. From our first appointment to our last, we received wonderful care. The staff at CTFRC were always very friendly, welcoming, and had a great spirit. The Physiotherapist was very kind, gentle and provided us with so much knowledge!
The outlet to have a professional available for help and advice and direction was key in our success, along with the tips, tools and education I received. They are so great at checking in and making sure I know there are supports, if necessary.
Having someone to talk me through the stages and calm my nerves about [my child's] development is what helped me the most. the sessions were always super informative and gave great advice on what to work on with [my child]. Just having the peace of mind that we were on the right track. I appreciate the service so much and I would recommend to any concerned parent!
