De Silva Kids Clinic

I highly recommend De Silva kids clinic. Very helpful and have been very patient with my daughter and her needs.

My daughter and I met with Trudy yesterday for an assessment and I would highly recommend this lovely lady to any parent or carer who is seeking answers to any concerns they may have regarding their child's development. Trudy's approach with my 9 year old was beyond excellent, her guidance and reassurance had me hopeful and relieved all at once for my daughters future progress. Trudy's experience, knowledge and confidence is outstanding.

I thought by the amount of positive reviews this place would be good but was I wrong! The OT my son was seeing kept calling him Evan instead of Clarence to the point that she doesn't even realise it anymore and I wasn't even bothered anymore to keep correcting her! To make matter worse, the receptionist kept calling me Tamara instead of Tanny even though I corrected her once already! Unfortunately, my experience here has not been good!

A big thank you to De Silva kids Clinic. My son has been attending the clinic for the last 3 years and there has been great improvement in his speech. Didem has been very supportive, professional and kind. She provides regular feedbacks and is happy to work at my son’s pace. I am grateful to the staff at De Silva for their support and patience.

Highly recommend De Silva Kids clinic! From Bilyana's welcoming smile as you enter to Trudy's empathetic and calm nature, you and your family are made to feel comfortable from the moment you walk in the door. Trudy worked flawlessly with my daughter and got the results we needed with no stress or anxiety felt by my child, whilst Bilyana kept my other two children occupied for lots of paper and pencils to ensure they were comfortable. Everything provided is done seamlessly and with full disclosure.

Absolutely disgusting and discriminatory behaviour from all that work there, they should be ashamed!

I highly recommend Trudy De Silva from the De Silva Clinic. She undertook a comprehensive speech assessment of my child and we both found her to be very thorough and knowledgeable but also absolutely lovely and easy to talk to.

I have been attending De Silva Kids Clinic with my son for many years. The clinic is in a handy location with parking readily available. Any contact we have with the clinic is always followed up immediately. My sons therapist Didem is absolutely amazing. She always manages to get the best from my son and is caring, knowledgeable and professional. He participates willing in the sessions and the improvements he has gained has helped him and myself in his everyday life. I highly recommend this clinic.

Extremely pleased with the services we receive at De Silva kids clinic. Trudy has been amazing not only is she down to earth, she’s very passionate and also very professional, my daughter loves sessions with Trudy. And lastly the receptionist Bily I love her mannerisms on the phone and also when walking into the clinic she’s always smiling and never forgets to greet us. I highly recommend De Silva kid clinic.

Didem has been my son’s speech therapist for a couple of years now. She is the best speech therapist we have ever seen and due to her amazing skills my son has made great progress in reading, speech and language skills and writing! She goes above and beyond for her clients and always meets the clients needs and adjusts her sessions accordingly. We highly recommend her. Thanks Didem for all your hard work, we are forever grateful for all your help and want you to know that it is because of you that our son now has a passion for reading and writing!

My GP recommended De Silva Kids Clinic to assist my daughter with a significant speech delay. Didem has built a great relationship with my daughter over the past two years. We attend fortnightly sessions where Didem works intensively with my daughter, playing games and modelling strategies to apply at home. At the end of each session, notes and strategies are also emailed to my daughter's kindergarten teacher.

De Silva Kids Clinic also offer comprehensive language assessments. Didem's report was thorough and provided our primary school with important transition information before my daughter starts prep next year.

My daughter has made considerable progress during her time at De Silva Kids Clinic. The team are caring, welcoming and offer a wealth of knowledge about additional supports such as the NDIS.

I highly recommend De Silva Kids Clinic for anyone seeking speech therapy for their child.

My child is attending De Silva Clinic for last 1.5 years for speech therapy. It's the best speech therapy clinic I have visited. Didem is excellent! She has helped my child to learn & develop language. Truly greatful to Desilva Clinic for helping my child to excel.

The De Silva kids clinic is absolutely amazing. Didem Is very knowledgeable Speach Pathologist and her team are very professional and extremely helpful. My son has made amazing progress in the last three years. Didem is friendly, engaging and encouraging. She has built a strong relationship with my son. My son’s speech and language has dramatically improved. Didem works with my son’s School teacher which has been great. You wouldn’t want any other therapists after you have such a wonderful experience with them. I would definitely recommend there services to family and friends.

My son started to see the therapist Trudy since a month ago. She is very nice and patient with my son. I put my son’s name for the waiting list since last year and I am happy to work with Trudy to help my son because really she works hard to help the kids.

De Silva Kids was recommended to me by a school mum and I cannot thank her enough.
I have two children attending therapy and their therapist Didem is nothing short of amazing.
Her ability to target both their individual needs is astounding. She delivers her sessions with warmth, kindness and professionalism. Not only does she care for my children, but she also checks in to see how I’m going. My children have had a few therapists from other clinics and no one had ever asked how I’m doing. I cannot recommend De Silva Kids highly enough

My son has been receiving therapy from De Silva Kids Clinic for over a year. I have found the staff at this clinic to be professional and would highly recommend their services. The exceptional speech pathology sessions offered by Senali have been very helpful for my son whose receptive language has improved over the past year. Senali patiently trialed different communication systems with my son until she found the technique that was best suited to his needs. Our occupational therapist Sarah has also been fantastic at providing timely advice and support for our child’s sensory needs. I also found the in-house collaboration between the multidisciplinary allied health team to be quite helpful for consistency over the past year. Thank you to all the team.

We have been working with Tasneem, speech therapist, for 5 years. She is a very dedicated person. My daughter started talking and now progressing greatly with her hard work. My son was a total non-verbal, he didn't say any sound at all. But with Tasneem's continuous hard work and consistency for one year, he has started saying single words and many different sounds. She gives great advices, suggesting different places and things to try which has benefitted other kids. Always thinking about how the kids will benefit. We are very lucky that our paediatrician suggested De Silva Kids Clinic, and we got Tasneem to work with.
And I will also say thanks to Billy, the receptionist. She is very kind hearted and helpful.
Thank you Desilva Kids Clinic, for helping my kids in every possible way.

We accessed the services of De Silva Kids Clinic in the past year, and would highly recommend them. The staff are lovely and the psychologist we had was very supportive and responsive. If given the opportunity I would use them again.

I have been a client of De Silva for a couple of years now and couldn’t be happier with their services. From the minute I walked into the centre and was greeted by receptions billy she was so helpful and inviting I felt at ease straight away. Billy was happy to answer any questions I had about the services de silva offer and what would work better for me. My children needed speech therapy so we started sessions with didem. Immediately my kids felt comfortable and happy they even looked forward to there speech sessions. Didem is compassionate caring and all over involved therapist who cares more about her clients than anything. She is easy to talk to and works with each child and there specific needs to help them thrive and reach there goals. What I love about her is the way she checks up on my family just to ask how we are and if she can help with anything. Her care and dedication to her work is what makes her stand out from other speech therapists. I would definitely recommend didem to any parent that wants there child to thrive and reach there goals.

We have been lucky enough to be clients of De Silva Kids Clinic for over 6 months now and we could not be happier with the progress our son has made under the care of Didem. From our initial interactions with Didem over the phone, her professional and compassionate nature has been what has made our sons progress possible.
From the first in clinic session, Didem has personalised the therapy sessions to meet our sons attention span, interests, strengths and in doing so has enabled him to reach his full potential through her effective treatment plan.
Our family has clicked so easily with Didem, her ability to empathize with family dynamics and our sons mood or emotional needs has enabled him to gain the most out of each therapy session.
Our sons well being has been paramount to Didem and we are so grateful for her insight into keeping our son motivated to work on tasks that have somewhat difficult at times for his confidence.
In addition to Didems clinical knowledge and experience, Didem has provided for our son a holistic treatment plan, collaborating with the in house Psychologist and OT to implement supports to enable our son to gain maximum output each session. We cant thank Didem enough and highly recommend her as a highly qualified, empathetic and motivated clinician that gets results by working alongside families with the child's best interests at heart.
