Sally Ayres

Speech & Language Coach

I am a Speech & Language Coach, drawing on the 15 years of experience I accumulated as a qualified Speech and Language Therapist (BSc Speech Pathology and Therapy), working within NHS, independent, and school-based settings.

I currently provide play-based coaching to children and families, supporting early communication, speech sound development, receptive and expressive language skills and social communication. I have a warm, practical approach, with children learning through play, making speech and language development fun, natural, and engaging.

I offer coaching and support for parents to help boost their children’s skills at home.  I provide practical, easy-to-use strategies tailored to the individual child’s needs, empowering parents and teachers to feel confident in supporting them and embedding techniques into everyday routines. 

” Sally was a great help to our four year old who struggled with clarity of speech. Sessions were thorough and thoughtfully tailored to his specific needs. Sally always made sure to make therapy fun, paying attention to our son’s likes and interests and incorporating these into exercises. Ensuring that he enjoyed his time with her helped him to benefit even more from her assistance and we saw a noticeable improvement in his speech.”
