Dankie Alida van Wyk Spraakterapie ∙ Speech Therapy vir die mooi opsomming.
As jou “gut”/instink/intuïsie vir jou sê jy moet bekommerd wees oor jou kind se kommunikasie vaardighede, maar jy is nog nie reg vir al die geld en tyd en moeite wat moontlik met ‘n volledige formele evaluasie gepaard gaan nie, is ‘n sifting ‘n wonderlike oplossing.
Jy stap uit die kantoor met een van twee wenne:
1. Al die gemoedsrus in die wêreld (en ‘n klop op die skouer vir jou proaktiewe ouerskap)
2. ‘n Plan van aksie om jou en jou kind te kry waar julle wil en moet wees (en ‘n klop op die skouer vir jou proaktiewe ouerskap)
“Let’s just wait and see” is something I hear often — but early screening can make a huge difference 🧠💬
Speech and language delays don’t always mean long-term difficulties, especially when support starts early.
Early screening helps us:
✔ identify strengths
✔ spot areas needing support
✔ guide families with confidence
Early support = empowered parents 🌱
Unsure if your child should be screened?
Have a couple of questions?

Happy New Year and welcome to 2026.
To initiate this year, we will be exploring knowledge to set realistic expectations.
I encourage parents, teachers, grandparents, and caregivers to reach out with questions concerning speech and language development via comment or private message.
Why? Consulting a speech therapist provides more accurate results than searching online. I will respond with a video and offer practical home-based advice.

As the year comes to a close, I am filled with gratitude for the numerous blessings in my life. What a remarkable experience it has been!
I successfully authored a children’s book, navigated the challenges of grade 1 with my son, and gained valuable insights from this experience.
Our practice has grown to three locations, and I am deeply appreciative of the talented therapists and practice manager who provide top-notch care.
With a loving husband and creative four-year-old daughter, my life is rich in joy and love. I extend my gratitude for your support and look forward to a bright 2026.

“A career in speech, language and hearing therapy challenges you to use your intellect (the talents of your mind) in combination with your humanity (the gifts in your heart) to do meaningful work that feeds your soul…I am proud to be a member of what I consider to be the best profession on earth.”- Megan Hodge.
This quote is a summary of all my favorite things in life. I am passionate about communication. It’s by far my favorite thing to do! But what happens when your whole world changes or your communication potential is only a smile? As a speech therapist I believe that it’s my job to help every patient develop their fullest potential. That’s why I emphasize the fact that a speech therapist greatest benefit is her personality.
I am a farm girl originally from a small town, Koppies, in the Free state. I’ve studied at Stellenbosch University and received a B-Speech, Language and Hearing Therapy degree. I did my community service year at Dihlabeng hospital in Bethlehem where I had the privilege of working with children with a wide variety of disorders. In 2014 I became a lowvelder and provide my services at Flying Colours and as well as local schools. I received my Hearing Aid Acoustician diploma from University of Pretoria at the end of 2015. I’ve also registered with the PROMPT institute in 2015. I’ve completed the introduction and bridging level in 2016. Due to my love for autistic children I’ve completed the introduction level of Floortime. What an amazing tool to follow the child’s lead and to achieve therapy goals through play.
On 29 October 2016 I got married to local journalist Stefan de Villiers. At the end of 2018 we received our biggest blessing. Our little boy, Viljee, was born on 11 December 2018. We have a beautiful pug, Nina. She is the best doggy friend.
In 2018 Lizélda de Bruin-de Villiers Speech Therapy welcomed Lia Odendaal as part of the team! She is a Speech Therapist with an amazing passion for the scholastic popul. She is a great benefit for the practice and a lovely friend.
2019 Presented with a surprising new Adventure. The practice moved premises from 53 Murray street to 26 Marloth street. The premises provides other therapy services like Occupational therapy as well as Educational psychology. We are super excited for our next season.
The educationalist James Britton stated that Reading and writing floats on a sea of talk. This is why early intervention is necessary. It’s the building blocks of your child’s education.
