How does it work?
Be ready 10 mins before
We recommend you connect at least 10 minutes before the set time to make sure it's working. It's fast and easy, but just give yourself some time in case of issues. The session will take 30 minutes.
Quiet Room
Ensure you and your child are set up in a quiet room to minimise interruptions during your appointment. Your SLT (Speech & Language Therapist) will need your help to maintain your child's concentration during the session.
Favourite / New Toys
Your therapist may request that your child has some favourite or new toys to play with during the session. Please have some on hand.
History
Please ensure that you have sent through any relevant reports and return any forms as requested by our team before your session.
