“Ms Adelaide is an exceptional therapist. Highly dedicated.”
“I got the Play and Language Cards from Speechie AD, and they really helped me interact more with my kids. They helped my baby become very active and vibrant. Speechie AD is an excellent speech therapist for all growing kids. 👍”
“Adelaide is an exceptional speech therapist, and she's truly passionate about helping children communicate with confidence. Watching the impact she makes every day in the lives of our children has been inspiring.”
“I attended three Baby and Me classes with Adelaide, and they were all excellent. They were stimulating for my daughter in an age-appropriate way. We learned songs in varied Ghanaian heritage languages, played with instruments, and enjoyed varied sensory play opportunities. I now always give my little girl some foam or bubbles to play with in a sandwich bag while she waits for her dinner! So many great opportunities to connect with baby, underpinned by expert knowledge. I love Baby and Me.”
“Adelaide is so great at what she does. Four years into our speech therapy journey, her support has transformed my son from not talking enough to talking way too much! She's passionate, professional and fun (her oversized therapy bags and car trunk are full of toys your kids will absolutely love 😄). Working with her has been a dream, and I recommend her 💯.”
“I got a set of Play Cards from her, and I honestly didn't expect how much of a difference they would make. They've really helped me bond more intentionally with my baby, and the activities are simple but so meaningful. I also attended the Baby and Me class, and it was such a fun and refreshing experience. The atmosphere was welcoming, relaxed and engaging for both mums and babies. If you're looking for something to help you connect more with your little one while enjoying the process, I'd definitely recommend her 🤎.”
