SUCCESS WITH SPEECH THERAPY Ltd (serving Hertfordshire, Essex & Haringey)
Parents of child aged 4, Reception, Hertfordshire. March 2025:
We have had the absolute pleasure of working with Fran for over two years as she supported our daughter, who has autism and is non-verbal. From the very beginning, it was clear that Fran is not just a highly skilled professional but also someone who genuinely cares about the children and families she works with.
Her expertise and deep knowledge in speech and language therapy, particularly in working with non-verbal children, have been invaluable to our daughter’s progress. Fran is incredibly dedicated and goes above and beyond to provide the best support, never treating this as just a job or chasing profit, but rather putting the needs of the child first.
One of the things we appreciate most is her kind and friendly approach—she always made our daughter feel comfortable and engaged in sessions. She took the time to build trust and form a meaningful connection, which made all the difference. Fran's ability to adapt strategies to suit our daughter’s unique needs has been remarkable.
Beyond therapy sessions, Fran has been proactive in liaising with schools and nurseries, ensuring that everyone involved in our daughter’s care is on the same page. Fran made frequent visits, offered tailored guidance, and provided comprehensive reports that were both insightful and incredibly helpful in securing the right support.
A, Mother of child aged 2, Hertfordshire, September 2023:
My son's progress with Fran's speech therapy has been incredible. In just a few months, he's gone from saying only 6-7 words to non-stop talking. We're amazed at his growth, and Fran's support has been invaluable. We've learned new ways to support his language development and gained confidence as parents. Fran made sessions fun, and we'll miss her!
K, Mother of child aged 3, Hertfordshire, September 2023:
Fran has been brilliant throughout my daughter’s speech and language sessions. Initially I was very concerned about her as she was saying so little, but Fran reassured me and could tell me straight away my daughter’s needs, which was such a relief.
Therapy has worked wonders for her, Fran is such a friendly, vibrant, and patient therapist. She really is worth her weight in gold, so pleased we went to Fran for help.
L, Mother of child aged 3, Hertfordshire. September 2023:
Fran has been, and continues to be, such an amazing speech therapist for our daughter; we have been attending sessions with Fran for 11 months now and the progress with our daughter's social interaction, eye contact and babbling has improved dramatically and we could not be more grateful.
Fran supports and guides us as parents with strategies to use at home to help Aria (currently non-verbal) communicate, she also attends nursery sessions to ensure we are all being consistent with our strategies to provide as much support to Aria as possible.
The sessions are always fun and full of great ideas and activities to gain Aria’s attention and work on her engagement skills, adding in vocabulary and other speech language methods to help Aria’s communication develop.
Our daughter is on the ASD pathway and we cannot thank Fran enough for her support and insight into ASD and language; the knowledge and strategies we have obtained from attending these sessions has definitely assisted Aria to communicate which has reduced her frustrations and in turn made her a happier little girl.
Fran is always on hand to offer support and guidance and replies to messages promptly; I can not recommend her enough!
