Parent & Educator Training

At May’s Speech Therapy, we know that children thrive when the people around them feel confident supporting their communication. Our Parent and Educator Training sessions are designed to empower the adults in a child’s life — giving them practical tools, strategies, and knowledge to support speech, language, and communication every day.

Whether you’re a parent, carer, early childhood educator, or school teacher, these sessions are a great way to build your confidence and understanding. By working together, we can create a supportive environment where children feel heard, understood, and encouraged.

How We Provide Parent & Educator Training

We offer tailored training sessions across Ryde and surrounding suburbs, designed to meet the specific needs of families, preschools, and schools. Our training is friendly, practical, and based on the latest research in speech and language development.

Each session is interactive and can be delivered in-person or online. Topics are flexible and may include:

• Early signs of communication difficulties and when to seek help
• Everyday strategies to support speech and language at home or in the classroom
• Supporting children with language delays, speech sound difficulties, or social communication challenges
• Creating communication-friendly environments
• Understanding referral pathways and how speech therapy can help

We also provide customised workshops for educators and staff teams, with plenty of real-life examples and take-home resources.
