Grow Paediatrics

At GROW Paediatrics we tailor our speech pathology services for children aged 0–8 years, supporting everything from early babbling to full sentence use. We focus on language development, communication skills, play, feeding and AAC (augmentative and alternative communication). Working closely with families, our team delivers evidence-based, fun and engaging sessions so your child can communicate confidently and effectively.

Our occupational therapists support your child’s independence in everyday life, enhancing fine motor skills, sensory processing and functional abilities. Whether your child needs help with self-care, play, social skills or handwriting, we offer personalised, nurture-based interventions in partnership with you and your child. We believe each child can reach their full potential in an environment of support and warmth.

Our oral myology therapy helps children develop the muscles and movement patterns needed for strong, healthy speech, feeding, and breathing. We work gently and playfully to support your child’s tongue, lips, and jaw coordination—building the foundation for confident communication and eating skills. Whether your child struggles with mouth breathing, tongue ties, or speech clarity, our team uses evidence-based, family-friendly strategies to help them thrive.

For children with more complex medical or developmental needs, our specialist nurse, along with our multidisciplinary team, provides holistic, wrap-around care. From managing enteral feeding and tube-weaning to medication coordination and holistic development, we work closely with families to build individualised care plans that support health, growth and everyday participation.

Our assessments at GROW Paediatrics cover a wide range of developmental areas including speech, feeding, sleep, toileting and medications. We begin with a detailed evaluation to uncover the whole-child picture, and work in collaboration with your family and any other professionals to build a supportive path forward.

At GROW Paediatrics, our additional supports include art therapy, psychology and experienced allied health assistants (AHAs) working under therapist supervision. These services provide creative, emotional and practical pathways — from expressive arts to emotional regulation, and hands-on reinforcement of skills between therapy sessions — to offer a truly rounded support network for your child.

Toileting can be a challenging milestone — and our specialist team is here to help. We conduct comprehensive evaluations of physical, sensory and behavioural factors, then create a tailored toileting plan that fits your child’s routine. With home and family support, we build independence, confidence and dignity, whether the child is just starting or needs advanced support.

Side Biters are therapeutic oral-motor tools that support chewing skills and oral sensory awareness — from early feeding experiences to more advanced swallowing. Developed for use with children from around 7 months and up, these mouth-safe silicone cylinders with variable holes provide safe, enjoyable practice for developing feeding and chewing skills at home or in therapy.

Our Picky Eater Kit offers hands-on tools and strategies to support children who are hesitant around food, have limited diets or feeding challenges. We provide gentle, evidence-based support to transform mealtimes into positive, nourishing experiences — helping children build confidence in eating and families feel empowered around food.

We host workshops designed for families, carers and professionals to dive into key topics like feeding, sleep, toileting, communication and early intervention. These sessions offer practical strategies, evidence-based insights and a supportive community — helping you feel empowered and equipped to support your child’s development every day.

Our collaborative consults bring together therapists, educators and care-teams to ensure everyone supporting your child has the same clear goals. We’ll meet with your family, school or service sector staff, share insights, and build a coordinated plan so your child’s speech, feeding, motor and emotional support connects seamlessly across all environments. Consistency + teamwork = better outcomes.

Designed for parents, educators and allied health professionals, our interactive workshops deliver evidence-based strategies in an engaging format. Topics cover toileting, sleep, feeding, behaviour, regulation and more. Led by experienced clinicians, these sessions equip you with practical tools you can use straight away to support children’s development, build confidence and create stronger support networks.

Engage in first-aid training that’s focused, real-world and compassionate. GROW Foundations offers accredited and unaccredited courses – including CPR, infant & child first aid, and trauma-aware modules for educators, carers and support workers. Our aim is to build calm, confident responders — practical skills you carry beyond the classroom or clinic and into any everyday emergency.

The GROW Baseline is a one-off, comprehensive deep-dive assessment designed for children with complex or stalled progress. It examines sleep, nutrition, medication, bowel health and more, then delivers a plain-English summary and actionable recommendations. Perfect for referring professionals looking to gain clarity, align therapeutic direction and support families to collaborate with paediatricians or specialists.

We provide clinical mentoring and supervision for speech pathologists, occupational therapists, and allied health professionals seeking growth in complex care or early intervention. Sessions are supportive, reflective, and grounded in real practice. Whether you’re building confidence or deepening expertise, our mentoring helps you deliver high-quality, family-centred care with clarity and confidence.

Our team regularly delivers guest lectures and education sessions for universities, schools, and professional events. We share practical, evidence-informed insights in areas such as feeding, sleep, complex care, and early intervention. With engaging presenters and a collaborative spirit, we aim to inspire the next generation of clinicians and educators.
