Uptown Speech

Uptown Speech is a Speech-Language Pathology clinic established by Kira Chandler. We are located in Uptown Waterloo, conveniently close Grand River Hospital and the border with Kitchener. We specialize in working with toddlers, preschoolers and school aged children with communication difficulties. We take great pride in helping families to support their young communicators by giving them the leg up they need to reach their full potential. We believe that therapy should be fun, and use a variety of interactive games, music and toys to make learning and practice enjoyable and motivating-- even for parents!

Before deciding on whether a treatment plan is appropriate, we will conduct a thorough assessment of your childs communication skills to determine their areas of strength and need. The assessment is essential in helping us to set goals and gives us a baseline for measuring your childs progress. THERAPY Therapy is offered in 1:1 sessions with a speech-language pathologist to target your childs speech-language goals. Engaging toys and games are used to make therapy motivating and fun! Parents are encouraged to participate in sessions so that they can learn to support their childs progress and feel comfortable with home practice. Take-home activities are provided for parents to carry out between sessions. CONSULTATION Education and training for parents and other caregivers are important to a holistic approach. Consultations with other professionals (e.g. teachers, doctors, therapists) can also be an important piece of the puzzle when formulating a coordinated approach. Consultations, when appropriate, may be provided in our office, daycare, preschool or private school settings.
