We have been referring families to Moira for over five years. Moira offers a unique, flexible approach in that she sees families either in her purpose-built cabin at home, or here, at our Nursery, which is so convenient for our parents and children.
Every child and family that we refer, has flourished under her care and direction, and we as practitioners, have learnt so much from her expertise and knowledge.
Moira has endless amounts of energy and patience, and her sessions always look and sound fun. Families often fear the thought of what speech and language sessions may entail, but Moira takes all the fear away.
Every activity is thought out with the child in mind and is positive and engaging. The children look forward to her sessions and embrace them eagerly.
If you are considering speech therapy for your child, but not sure what to do, or where to go, I recommend you give Moira a call and talk things through.

I first met Moira around a year and half ago at which stage my son was severely speech and language delayed. Moira was absolutely amazing. I have learnt so much from Moira and followed her advice long after our sessions ended. She’s incredibly kind and patient but most importantly wonderful with children. Moira is extremely knowledgeable and has fantastic resources.
My son enjoyed every session!!
I can’t recommend Moira enough.
My son has now caught up and that’s largely down to Moira

Moira has been fantastic with my 4 year old son who loves going to his speech and language sessions.
Moira makes the session’s fun and creative bringing out the best in my son. Moira’s love and enthusiasm for her job really shines through.
The progress my son has made in a short space of time is amazing, I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Moira helped our sons enormously with their speech.
They looked forward to her sessions as she made the
activities so fun.
We saw great results and what’s more she was able to provide us as parents with a set of tactics that we and nursery could use to consistently and effectively.

Moira has taught me so much
about how to
Communicate and play with my son. After gaining an asd diagnosis at 2, my son started speech and language therapy. We had tried other therapists and we couldn’t find anyone who could connect with him or who knew how to gain his attention. Then we found Moira and I feel so lucky that we did. Moira’s clinic is a friendly and welcoming place where my son happily goes in to.
Her clinic is colourful, organised and full of exciting toys that she gets out in a way she knows my son will like. My son is now 4 and I rely on our sessions so that Moira and I can work together to discuss short- and long-term goals as well as learn ways to play.
Moira has taught me that connection is everything
and I always feel
Inspired and refreshed to go home and continue the work that she does. Moira is patient and understanding and always follows his lead. Moira is fantastic at what she does and has been a huge part of our journey. The consistency and persistence that she offers has helped my son develop so much and I know I will be using her for years to come.

My daughter had her last day at pre-school yesterday and her speech has come on leaps and bounds.
I used to be so worried about her starting school and her speech being so far behind but she’s definitely school ready now!
She really benefited from coming to see you and the games you introduced were so easy to do at home and pre-school to continue her development.
I really don’t think she would have made such amazing progress if we hadn’t had your support, so I wanted to say a big thank you!

'‘Moira has been absolutely fabulous.
She has really helped my 4-year-old
with her speech problems.
She does creative and fun games,
so my daughter doesn’t even know
she’s learning’'

''Moira has supported children at Lyons Hall through Speech and language therapy for over 5 years and she has been a tremendous support to all the children, parents and staff.
Moira has provided us with invaluable skills, support and encouragement to help us help children with complex speech and language needs to unlock their true potential.
Moira delivers engaging personalised sessions to the children she works with, focusing on their interests and building on their needs. The speech and language progress for the children she has worked with has been phenomenal and their improvement is noticed by everyone.
Moira is extremely professional, and she really cares about the children she works with, she will go above and beyond to attend meetings and produce detailed reports about the children she works with, clearly communicating their needs and next steps.
As a school we have been very lucky to have Moira’s specialised support and we are truly grateful.''

Moira’s guidance and support has been invaluable.
We have learned so much from our appointments, and changed our approach to helping and encouraging Freddie, not just his speech, but his communication in general, and he really is thriving!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and insights, it has helped him, and us, so much, and so quickly!

My son has been seeing Moira for the last 15 months and what a remarkable improvement his speech has made. Moira is absolutely fantastic and has so much passion for helping him. He loves seeing her and asks every week 'Am I going to see Moira and play games today?'
Thank you Moira for everything you have done, we truly appreciate it.

''Moira came highly recommended through our daughter’s school after she was identified as requiring speech therapy.
We found her warm and engaging and our daughter always enjoys her lessons.
We have noticed a considerable improvement in our daughter’s speech since starting with Moira and we would not hesitate to recommend her''
