    Speech therapist in the SE suburbs

    I am looking for a speech therapist in the SE suburbs. I'm in Aspendale Gardens. We saw a lady around the corner for a few months last year, but then DS just kinda lost intetrest and just got bored and wouldn't co operate. That was at 3, now he's 4 and his speech and co operation is a lot better (but speech is still not at the 4 year old level), so I wouldn't mind seeing a therapist anyway. In the early intervention group that we attend, a lady mentioned that her DS is seeing a speechie that also has experience in early intervention. Has anyone got any recommendations?
    Thank you.

    I used to work with Felicia Schamaman (Now at Speech4Kids in Ormond). She's really lovely and very knowledgable.

    Oh yes, have worked with Speechies at Cheeky Monkeys too and, assuming she's still there, I remember Danni was great.

    Thanks ladies.

    Slone, could you MP me the Aspendale number?

    I'd rather go somewhere close to where I live. Don't get me wrong, I'm not lazy to go further out, but we have so much going on ATM, and I'm already travelling a fair distance to work and to our early intervention, and so I'd like the therapist to be relatively close. I just hate all the travelling. I'm also looking at a lady close by in Waterways, so I'll see what she's like. She sounded nice when I spoke to her last year, but she was unavailable at the time though, as she was just finishing her matarnity leave.
