Kidz First Child Development Team

Community paediatric service for children with disabilities.

A community based service team, providing therapy and social work to assist children with special needs (including cleft lip and/or palate) and their family/whanau achieve their full potential in their daily lives. We work with children in schools, kindergartens, home, community, clinics and recreation centres.

Speech Language Therapists work with children between 0 and 3 years of age and their families who have been referred with severe communication and/or feeding difficulties. Children will only be seen for Speech Language Therapy if they require another therapy as well.

The service provides assessment and treatment of: 

  • early communication skills 
  • language dysfunction and/or delay 
  • speech disorders 
  • feeding and swallowing 
  • AAC – Alternative and Augmentative Communication
