Kick start your child's communication
Flashcards, worksheets, and fancy materials are not how young children learn language. Little ones, learn how to communicate from the people they love and spend their time with and that means you!
The Mable Early Langauge Programme gives you key skills and strategies designed to provide rich language experiences and opportunities for enhanced communication with your child.
Become an expert
You are an essential member of the therapy team and have valuable insights into your child's strengths, needs, and interests. Online therapy puts you in the driving seat. Your therapist will empower you with the knowledge and skills to develop your child's speech and language skills, and you will implement the techniques to support their language development in a natural and meaningful way.

Does this work online?
Yes, the Early Language Programme is effective when delivered online. In fact, online therapy has become an increasingly popular and accessible option for many parents because it:

- Allows for flexible scheduling to fit around your busy life
- Encourages the ability to learn and practice new strategies in your child's natural environment
What's involved in the Early Language Programme?
1. Modelling
Your speech and language therapist (SALT) demonstrates how to use language to engage in play and respond to the child's communication attempts.
2. Observation
The SALT observes the parent-child interactions and provides feedback on what the parent is doing well and where they can improve.
3. Feedback
The SALT provides specific feedback to you, highlighting what you are doing well and suggesting changes or additions to improve the child's language development.
4. Set goals
You and your SALT will set goals and targets. These are tailored to the child's specific needs and interests, making therapy more effective and meaningful.
5. Education
You'll learn about speech and language development and strategies for incorporating language stimulation activities into everyday routines.
6. Practice
You and your child practice the strategies and techniques taught during the session and are encouraged to use them consistently at home.

Technology designed to support progress
Our platform is intuitive, easy to use and secure. Therapists have resources, videos and activities to make the coaching fun and interactive.
After each session, you will receive a report and homework tasks. These can be accessed at the click of a button to provide you with information about your child's diagnosis, treatment plan, and progress.
Getting started
The consultation is 40 minutes, and it is a chance for you and your child to meet their therapist. The speech therapist will gather information about your child's medical and developmental history and any concerns or goals you have. They may engage your child in play-based activities or conversation to observe their communication skills in a naturalistic setting. After this, you will have the following:
- weekly 45-minute live sessions with your chosen therapist,
- Homework tasks and activities
- Around-the-clock messaging system with your therapist
