Parents

I work with children and young people with a diverse range of communication needs and can support your child and family at home, in nursery, school and college to ensure effective intervention and strategies are generalised across all communicative environments.

I have experience of working with children who have:
  • Acquired brain injury
  • Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC)
  • Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
  • Bilingualism 
  • Cerebral palsy
  • Cleft lip and palate
  • Craniofacial conditions
  • Developmental language disorder
  • Developmental speech difficulties
  • Dysphagia
  • Dyspraxia
  • Eating and drinking difficulties
  • English as an Additional Language (EAL)
  • Learning disabilities
  • Motor disorders
  • Multi-sensory impairment
  • Selective mutism
  • Social emotional and mental health (SEMH)
  • Social communication disorder
quotes_green  In the often confusing sea of people and information that seem to accompany any child with SEN, Amanda has been the person whose advice I trust the most. This is simply because she puts the best interests and needs of the child first at all times.
- Helen, Mother of Olivia
quoteblue  Amanda easily won over my son with a gentle, playful manner that masks her great insight and knowledge of all matters speech, language and beyond. Her support and advice have been invaluable, both for my son and for me as a parent. - Tia, Mother of Jake

quotes_greenstroke   Amanda was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and provided me with huge amounts of support, not least, in an Emergency Annual Review meeting for my son’s Educational Health and Care Plan. Her expert advice on the SEN process was invaluable and she ‘held my hand’ in the meeting, providing informed and considered suggestions for all parties present (LA/School/Parent Support Workers etc..). She calmly but firmly championed my son’s needs every step of the way. - Farah, Mother of Adam

quotes_green  We are very pleased with all that Amanda does for Tom. She has built very good relationships with the family, care team and school. She gives good, clear advice and Tom is reaping the benefits. - Catherine, Case Manager.
