My name is Sophie, and I have worked as a paediatric Speech and Language Therapist for almost 14 years — a role I truly love.
I currently work three days per week within the NHS as a Highly Specialised Speech and Language Therapist, supporting children with Cleft Lip and Palate and Velopharyngeal Dysfunction. Alongside this specialist role, I have extensive experience supporting a wide range of children’s speech, language and communication needs.
I live in Melton with my family and have three children, all now of school age.
I offer flexible support across Leicestershire and am happy to see children at home, in preschool, or in school settings. I can provide one-off assessments or ongoing therapy, depending on your child’s individual needs.

Training:

BSC (Hons) Clinical Language Sciences (2011) Leeds Metropolitan University.

MSC Cleft and Speech (2020) University of Sheffield.

I have set up a website which you can find here-
