“How often will my child need therapy?” is one of our most common questions.

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer—frequency depends on your child’s needs, their goals, how they respond to therapy, and what works for your family. Many children start with weekly sessions in SLP, OT, physio, or feeding therapy, and then we adjust over time.

The key thing: we make these decisions with you, and keep checking in so your plan makes sense for real life.

We’re often asked, “Is it too early to ask for help?” 🌱

Early support through SLP, OT, physio, or feeding therapy can gently address challenges before they become bigger barriers—for example, building movement skills before kids start avoiding active play, or supporting communication before frustration becomes daily meltdowns.

Early intervention isn’t about labels—it’s about understanding your child and giving them tools to participate, feel included, and succeed in daily life.

If mealtimes feel harder than they should, you’re not alone. 💛

Feeding therapy is for children who find eating challenging—whether that looks like avoiding certain textures, eating only a few “safe” foods, coughing or gagging, taking a very long time to eat, or having big feelings around meals. Our therapists look at posture, oral motor skills, sensory preferences, and family routines to understand the full picture.

Sessions are gentle and child-led, focusing on comfort, trust, and small steps forward rather than pressure. We also support parents with practical strategies so you don’t feel like you’re guessing at every meal.

If you’ve been wondering whether your child might need feeding support, this is a good place to start.

Winter is a great time to build fine motor skills indoors ✋❄️

Try:

Paper snowflakes: folding and cutting builds hand strength and scissor skills

Sticker scenes or sticker paths: peeling and placing stickers helps finger strength and coordination

Pom-pom “snowballs”: move them with tongs or spoons into cups for grasp and control

These playful tasks support writing, cutting, using tools, and everyday hand skills—without feeling like homework.

Curious about when pediatric physiotherapy might help? 🤔

Families often come to physio when they notice these signals.

An assessment with our physio team can help answer “Is this something they’ll grow out of, or do they need support?” and create a clear plan going forward.

👉 If you’re unsure, sending us a message with your questions is a great first step.

New year = new routines (or trying again with old ones).

Visual schedules can make mornings, after-school time, and bedtime feel more predictable for kids. A simple row of pictures or words—like “wake up → get dressed → breakfast → brush teeth”—can reduce arguing, support independence, and help kids who need extra time to process transitions.

You don’t need anything fancy: hand-drawn pictures, sticky notes, or basic icons printed from the computer work just fine. The goal is clarity, not perfection.

❄️ Cozy Winter SLP Tips for Little Learners ❄️Winter is full of rich language moments, and the simplest routines can make the biggest impact.

On snow days, cozy up and share stories about what you see and feel outside. Narrating winter experiences helps children expand sentences and imagination.

And during warm drink moments, practice functional words like blow, sip, and stir — perfect for early talkers and children learning new action words. Keeping communication warm, playful, and connected all winter long. ☕️🤍
