Welcome to Articulate Kids Speech and Language Therapy, your dedicated partner in supporting the communication development of children right here in Petts Wood, Orpington. Located at Scotsdale Cl, we understand the unique challenges and joys of raising children, and we are committed to providing expert, compassionate assessment and therapy services tailored to the needs of local families.

Our Services
We offer comprehensive assessment and therapy services designed specifically for children in our local community:
Speech Sound Disorders: We help children develop clear articulation of speech sounds, addressing difficulties with pronunciation to improve intelligibility.
Language Delays and Disorders: Our assessments identify difficulties with understanding spoken language (receptive language) and expressing thoughts, ideas, and needs (expressive language). We also support children with limited or atypical language development.
Social Communication: We provide support for children who struggle with the skills needed to interact effectively with peers and adults, including understanding non-verbal cues, taking turns in conversation, and understanding conversational rules.
Stuttering: We offer assessment and evidence-based therapy for children experiencing stuttering, working collaboratively with families to reduce struggle and build confidence.
Pre-literacy and Early Literacy Skills: We support the development of foundational skills essential for reading and writing, such as phonological awareness, letter knowledge, and early sentence construction.
Our assessment process begins with a thorough initial consultation to understand the child's history and concerns. This is followed by a series of individualised assessments designed to gather detailed information about the child's communication abilities. Based on the findings, our therapists will provide a clear report outlining the child's strengths and areas for development, along with recommendations for therapy goals and intervention strategies.
Therapy sessions are tailored to the individual child's needs, age, and specific goals. We work closely with parents and caregivers, providing practical strategies and activities that can be implemented at home to support progress. Our goal is to empower children to communicate effectively and confidently, fostering their overall development and well-being.
If you have concerns about your child's speech, language, or communication development, we invite you to contact us. Our friendly team at Articulate Kids is ready to discuss your child's needs and answer any questions you may have.
