Little kids
We help little kids express their big ideas.
Caregivers may come to us for a wide variety of questions or concerns about their little ones. Some parents may want to check that their child's communication is on track. Some children already have a known difficulty, difference, or diagnosis and are in need of support and service.

Fees
Services are billed at $120 per hour.
The cost includes travel to/from the child's location (up to 20 minutes, after which a travel fee may be applied). It also includes preparation, documentation, and brief phone calls or email communication with the child's family, daycare, preschool, or other team members.
Depending on your child's and your family's needs a 30 minute ($80) or 45 minute ($100) appointment may be appropriate. Therapy schedules are also recommended based on a variety of factors and may be weekly, biweekly, or periodic.
We accept convenient payment options including credit card, direct billing to Blue Cross, email money transfer, cheque, or cash. We also offer billing to third party funding organizations.
Most insurance plans cover some or all speech-language pathology services up to a set amount. Please check with your provider about what your plan offers.
