What is a parent workshop?

This workshop is for parents to learn effective behaviour strategies to help their child with their communication. We will use real videos, interactive activities and share practical strategies with you. You will leave the workshop having some clear ideas on how to help your child, that you can use straight away.

What age is this for?

This workshop is relevant for all ages

Does my child need a diagnosis for this to be relevant?

No, all children will benefit from this workshop.

Will there be a replay?

Yes, a replay will be available for 30 days after the session.

Can I use my child's NDIS funding?

If you are plan-managed, check with your plan manager. If you are self-funded, you may be able to purchase this workshop with your Consumables funding. This is not a therapy service.

We are offering Hanen More Than Words for children who are autistic or have language delay. In this program you will be able to work with us 1:1 and in a group setting. Final registrations close Fri 3rd Oct. There is a free Orientation session on 17th September. www.swinnertonspeech.com/groups

What other parents have said:

Alice's presenting style is clear and organised. The visuals and video demonstrations Alice used really helped bring the explanations to life and made everything feel more relatable.

The tips Alice gave were practical and easy to implement in real life. I could use them with my child straight away.

I’d highly recommend Alice's presentation to other families. She made the material accessible, engaging, and practical, and I think it would really benefit others

-Parent, Warragul

Danielle's ability to engage the group and make the space safe for us to share struggles with strangers was amazing. The information and theories were presented in an easy to understand way, and we never felt silly or foolish for not knowing it.

We highly recommend working with Danielle if you ever get the chance.
