Testimonials

 

"Charlie has been working with Sheila since October 2019... We first started off with half hour sessions two times a week, based on the fact that Charlie had poor attention and listening...After just a couple of weeks Charlie was drawn to Sheila and his concentration with her was incredible!

We increased the sessions to an hour within weeks and Charlie's progress with music, communication, Makaton and speech was fantastic...

 

Charlie started using a communication aid in 2018 and since seeing Sheila his progress with this is phenomenal!

The support that she has shown us a family has been great!

I have also learnt so much from her

• New ways to play
• Not everything has to be serious
• Have fun
• Notes on a keyboard
• Support with communication aid (these can be quite daunting when starting out)

 

I give every thanks to this lady I don't know what we would do with out you now."

2025

When Sheila first began working with our son, both he and our family were in crisis. He had been permanently excluded from school at just five years old, with undiagnosed autism and ADHD. He struggled to focus or sit for any length of time, was highly dysregulated, and often lashed out. We were truly at our wits’ end.

 

Within just a few weeks, Daniel began responding to Sheila’s kind, calm, and nurturing approach. Her consistent routines and engaging activities were carefully tailored to Daniel’s individual needs. Over the course of six months, Sheila helped Daniel develop self-regulation skills, build his speech, and gain the confidence and readiness he needed to start his new school in September.

 

We cannot thank Sheila enough for her dedication, and for the support and hope she gave our family during such a difficult time.
