Therapy built around your child

Every child is different. Our Speech Pathologists, Occupational Therapists and Psychologists work together, and with you, to make progress feel achievable.

Speech Pathology

Speech Pathologists (or Speechies) work with children and their families to develop their communication skills. At Scribble, our Speechies provide assessment and therapy for articulation (speech clarity), receptive language (comprehension), expressive language (talking), social communication, fluency (stuttering), literacy (reading and spelling), and play.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapists work with children and their families, to help enhance skills necessary to participate in their activities of daily living. Some of these skills include playing, drawing, handwriting, getting dressed, and toileting. An Occupational Therapist can support children to live more independently and develop their ability to play and learn.

Psychology and Assessments

Neurodiversity affirming psychologists adopt an approach that is strengths-based and personalised according to the child and their family. Therapy focuses on emphasising and nurturing strengths to promote a positive self-identity. Psychologists use diagnostic assessments to support children to formalise their identity, and to support children to understand how their brain differs from other brains. Having this understanding, allows a child to further learn about how they process and learn, and advocate for these needs.

Group Therapy

Our School Holiday Group Therapy sessions are run by our therapists, offering a fun and supportive environment for skill building. Each group has its own objectives, focusing on areas like communication, motor skills, and emotional regulation. Most groups are held in our clinic, with occasional community-based sessions at local parks, cafés, or other settings for real-world learning. These groups are designed to engage participants in practical, hands-on experiences in a safe and supportive social setting.

Scribble is a safe place where neurodivergent children are recognised, celebrated, and supported.

We pride ourselves in our neurodiversity affirming therapy approach, which acknowledges the infinite variations of the human brain. We do not view differences as deficits and believe there is no “right way” of learning, thinking, and behaving. We aim to increase your child’s self-identity and self-advocacy, to support their existence within a largely neurotypical society.

How we work

Our values

Therapy goals focus on improving the child’s quality of life, not changing who they are.
play comes first
  • Respecting neurodiversity

    We honour each child for who they are, and learn from the real experts: autistic adults who were once autistic kids.

  • Strengths-based

    We look at what a child is already doing well and use those skills to help them reach their goals.

  • Child-centred play

    Play is the natural language of children. The child leads the way; the therapist follows.

  • Evidence-informed

    We keep up with current research and adapt our practice to each child and family.

  • We had such a wonderful experience with Scribble Children’s Therapy in Moonee Ponds. From the very beginning, we felt supported and genuinely cared for. The service was professional, kind, and always responsive, which made a big difference for our family. Maddie was absolutely fabulous — so patient, knowledgeable, and caring. She connected beautifully and made every session feel positive and encouraging. We are truly grateful for the support we received and would highly recommend Scribble Moonee Ponds to any family looking for high-quality therapy services.

  • My son has benefited a lot from the therapy he has received from the Occupational Therapist and Speech Pathologist at Scribble Children's Therapy in Caroline Springs. He has enjoyed that Therapy provided is through play and hands on learning experiences. I have liked the detailed session notes I receive after his appointments. The admin staff are also very responsive and maintain regular communication through emails and sms.

  • Tilly has been such a beautiful and caring OT, my child has warmed to her straight away, and that shows that she/her/they is a beautiful person. Tilly shows great knowledge with working with children, and has great compassion towards my child. I highly recommend Tilly as an OT. We are very happy with her/their techniques during session.
