Yes all our staff have extensive paediatric clinical experience, we have no junior staff. 

In short YES! However there are a couple of points to consider;

Walky Talky is not specifically designed to support only babies with delayed skills. It does not contain information on how to manage specific movement disorders, like spasticity, or specific language delay like developmental language disorder. 

However our membership has a broad evidence based collection of tips and strategies to support language and motor development that will likely be helpful for all babies. For example 

• Simple play ideas and games,

• Reading tips, how to choose books and use books to support language development

• Toy tips, how to choose toys to support each developmental stage

• Positioning tips and ideas for supporting movement 

• Strategies for encouraging babbling and first words. 

• Strategies for how to talk to a young baby to support their communication and encourage babbling and first words. 

For more details on what is included in the membership click here or email us with specific enquiries. 

Walky Talky Baby will be helpful to augment in person 1:1 therapy, especially if; 

• The baby is on a waitlist for therapy services

• The family will value or benefit from reassurance and guidance between your face-to-face sessions

• The baby needs 1:1 therapy with one health professional but would appreciate some online support in other areas as well such as play, reading, singing and general strategies for supporting development

• The baby has completed a block of 1:1 therapy and would benefit from still having professionals on hand so the family can check-in to make sure baby remains on track

• The family are unable to access sufficient intensity of 1:1 therapy due to lack of time or finances. 

• The family are unable to access a therapist with paediatric skills and knowledge and want some input from therapists with paediatric expertise in addition to their 1:1 therapy.

FREE resources including mini-course, e book and webinar are also available under the free resources tab. 

Membership scholarship we know that the WTB membership would be very helpful to many families who can't afford to pay for it. It is very important to us that clear, concise information on best practise for supporting development is available to everyone. We do regularly offer free memberships to families that would benefit from but cannot afford our product. If you have a family you would like to refer for a free membership please email us with details. We have a more formal scholarship arrangement to come.

The Walky Talky Baby membership supports all the typical stages of development from birth to walking and first words. 

Our membership is COMPREHENSIVE but really well organised. We think this infographic describes it best. 

In a nutshell;

It is comprised of 4 core modules that members all have access to at all times as it is very possible that a baby be in 2 different modules for language and motor development. More on the modules here and in this infographic. 

We also have a village where members can ask questions and read previous questions and replies. 

We have a library containing video Q and A sessions with us and other experts, FAQs,  updates from the research, e books and other resources. 

Finally we have a Simple Play section where all the ideas for supporting language and motor development are collated and presented to members in the context of a simple play idea. This section helps families pull all the ideas together in play. 

YES lots! We have resources especially compiled for

• New parents wanting to prepare for supporting their baby's language and motor development through play. We are talking practical (not just pretty) tips for getting ready for a new baby
• For parents of newborn to 6 month olds we have a FREE e-book and mini course. This includes 7 days of play tips covering everything from creating the perfect play space to fostering independent play skills.

Alison Mason

Alison is an Australian Registered Physiotherapist with a Bsc (Science) Physiotherapy and Graduate Diploma in Paediatric Neurological Rehabilitation, who’s worked with babies and children in Perth and London for over 13 years.

Alison specialises in creating movement opportunities through play in the context of busy family life. She works with children of all ages but her favourite thing about working with babies is seeing them develop a skill and revel in newfound independence.

She’s also mum to two gorgeous girls.

“Early Motor skills are so important because they open up the world for your baby. As they learn everything from rolling and reaching to crawling and walking the world slowly unfolds for them... there is more to touch, see, explore and talk about.

“I believe as parents that it’s our job to give babies the support and the space they need to develop these early movement skills through play... then sit back and be amazed by the places they take your baby!"

Chiara Prigmore

Chiara is a Paediatric Speech Pathologist registered with Speech Pathology Australia, with over 13 years experience in Perth and London.

Her professional passion is in early intervention and she loves supporting parents to help their child achieve communication milestones. 

Her latest venture as mum to a little girl has made her even more driven to support parents through these early years.

“I've worked with children of all ages but absolutely love working with little ones, supporting them with their first words and sentences.

“In my five years at a London health centre, working with families from many different cultures and walks of life, I learnt that all parents actually want the same for their child:  to grow to the best of their ability.

“I love raising parents’ confidence in supporting their child to do this, and realising that it doesn't actually have to be hard work to get your baby talking!”
