Two Aussie Speech Pathologists who know what actually helps

We get it — you’ve probably got 12 milestone charts saved, three parenting apps pinging you, and conflicting advice from Google and your mother-in-law.

We’re two Aussie Speech Pathologists with 30+ years’ combined experience and between us, three kids, two nephews, one niece and far too many toy boxes.

Most parents are told to “talk more” with their child – but not how. We help you focus on the few strategies that matter for your child’s stage, build on what you’re already doing, and give you practical tips that fit your everyday life.

What parents say

Real families, real everyday moments

“We loved the Babbling Builder pack! It gave me so many little things I could try during our everyday life without feeling like I was doing ‘therapy’ at home. I feel much more confident in knowing how to help.”

Amy Esperance, WA

“The Crusader plan made it so much easier to know how to play with my little one to encourage communication. The ideas were simple, fun and actually easy to fit into our day.”

Bec Perth, WA

“The Word Adventurer pack gave us really practical ideas for helping our toddler move from single words to little sentences. It was also really reassuring knowing I was already doing some of the strategies too.”

Laura Sydney, NSW

Key Benefits of Our Communication Plans

Got a burning question? See if it is answered here…

If not, feel free to get in touch below.

It's never too early to build communication skills. Our earliest communication pack, The Crusader, is best suited to children aged from 10 months to 2 years.

Our resources are designed for parents of children aged 1–5 years — from those just starting to babble, right through to chatty little ones who need help being understood. The quiz helps you find your child's TalkTots Hub communication stage so you can skip the guesswork.

Our resources are not designed to replace a full speech and language assessment or one-to-one therapy. Think of us as your friendly guide — giving you research backed communication tips that weave into play and daily routines.

The waitlists for speech therapy services can be bonkers which is why we designed our platform. There are many tips and resources you can access today that can help guide you and your child on their communication journey. Our interactive tools can help you decide what will help. If you are still unsure, please get in touch with us.

It’s a relaxed 25-minute chat with an experienced Speech Pathologist, by phone or video. We’ll talk through what you’re noticing at home (and your quiz answers, if you’ve done the quiz), then tell you honestly whether we’d suggest waiting, trying some strategies, or getting more support – no pressure, no hard sell. Evening and Saturday morning times are available (Perth time). Book your free call.

We see children face-to-face mainly through our Early Learning Centre program. However, if you’d like 1:1 assessment and/or therapy, we’re more than happy to suggest some people to connect with – especially if you’re in Perth, Western Australia.
