At Yellow Door Kids, we believe every child deserves to feel understood — and to confidently connect with the world around them. That’s where Speech Pathology comes in. Speech Pathologists (also known as Speechies!) help kids build the skills they need to communicate, interact, and thrive in their own unique way — whether through speech, gestures, visuals, or alternative communication methods.

​

 

Supporting children to be heard and understood 

 

Our Speech Pathologists focus on helping children to be themselves, with the tools and support to express who they are.

​

Our team is experienced in working with neurodivergent children, including those with:

• Autism

• ADHD

• Developmental language disorder

• Social communication differences

• Speech sound delays

• Literacy challenges

​

What Speech Pathology Helps With

 

Speech Pathologists support communication across a wide range of areas, including:

• Speech clarity – helping kids say sounds more clearly so others can understand them.

• Language skills – building vocabulary, understanding, and expressing our own ideas.

• Pragmatic language – understanding and using your communication in social interactions.

• Play- building interactions and play skills to engage in meaningful play experiences with others.

• Literacy- reading, spelling and making sense of written language

• Social interaction skills- supporting skills like taking turns, reading and understanding social cues to connect with others

 

What Happens in a Session?

 

Every child is different, and so are our sessions. We use play-based, neurodiversity-affirming approaches that are engaging, evidence-based, and child-led. Sessions might include games, books, sensory play, visuals, and real-life routines — whatever helps your child learn best.

We also work closely with you — the parents and caregivers — to provide strategies and confidence for home, school, and everyday life.

 

Why It Matters

​

Speech Pathology isn’t just about speech — it’s about giving your child the tools to build relationships, independence, and self-expression.

When communication clicks, everything else starts to fall into place.
