My 3.5 year old has verbal dyspraxia. She see's a SALT once a week (if she can fit her in). I just feel as if it's just not enough. The nursery are very keen to help but after 1 day she has mastered her SALT homework and then there is a lot of time wasted.
The nursery are trying to start her on words that she has no chance of saying like"good morning, hello, goodbye"etc. They might think that these are basic words but Lucy just can't pronounce them correctly.
Does anyone know how I could get her more speech therapy, prefrubly without paying for it.
Or if there's anything we could do at home to help her.
I'm getting a bit worried now as she has started showing signs of angsiety ie grinding her teeth, and mooving her mouth far too much when she speeks as she is trying soo desperatly to get the right sounds out.
I just want the SALT to work more closely with the nursery as they want to do all they can and will even provide a private room where Lucy's speech therapy can take place.
If anyone has any ideas or advice then please let me know. Thanks
