What speech therapy helps with

Most children we see have one or two of these. The assessment tells you which, and what to work on first.

Which sounds should your child say by now?

Find the sound your child mixes up. If they are past the age most children have it, ask us.

"Tat" for "cat" at two and a half is normal. At five it is worth a look. Children learning two languages can be a little later on some sounds, but they get there in the same order.

If strangers still struggle to understand your child after age 3, an assessment is worth booking, whatever the chart says.

How speech therapy works at Poorvam Care

Five steps, and you are in every one of them.

  1. Tell us what you've noticedBook online or call. We call back within one working day.
  2. AssessmentA speech-language pathologist plays with your child and checks understanding, talking and sounds.
  3. A written planTwo or three goals, how many sessions a week, and when we will review.
  4. Weekly sessionsPlay-based therapy, with the last minutes spent showing you what to practise.
  5. ReviewWe check progress against the goals with you and move them on.
In the session
  • Play and games built around your child's goals
  • Modelling words and sounds, then helping your child try
  • Five minutes with you on what to practise
At home, between sessions
  • One routine to use every day, like naming at bath time
  • Short practice that fits around school and meals
  • Notes and home activities on your phone

When to see a doctor as well

Some signs need a medical check alongside therapy. We will tell you if we see them.

Get a hearing test first if you are unsure

Frequent ear infections, not turning to sounds or speech that stalls can all point to hearing. Our sister clinic Poorvam Hearing tests children of all ages in Electronic City.

See a paediatrician soon if your child loses words

A child who stops using words they had, stops babbling, or loses other skills should be seen by a paediatrician or developmental paediatrician as well as a therapist.

Other reasons we refer to a doctor

We refer to an ENT for suspected tongue-tie that affects feeding or speech, to a paediatric neurologist for seizures or regression, and to a developmental paediatrician when a formal diagnosis of autism or ADHD is needed. Therapy can start while you wait for those appointments.

Speech therapy in Electronic City: questions

Where is the best speech therapy center in Electronic City?

Look for an RCI-registered speech-language pathologist, a proper assessment before therapy starts, written goals, and home practice you understand. Poorvam Care offers all four at two centres: Phase 1 on Hulimangla Road and Phase 2 in Ananth Nagar, led by Apoorva Rai, MASLP, RCI registered, with 13+ years in practice.

What speech therapy services are available in Electronic City?

At both Poorvam Care centres in Electronic City: speech therapy for late talking and speech delay, unclear speech (articulation), stammering, language understanding and use, social communication, and speech therapy for autistic children. Occupational therapy, ABA, special education and therapeutic enrichment are available under the same roof.

How far is Poorvam Care from major areas near Electronic City?

The Phase 1 centre on Hulimangla Road is the closer one for Hulimangla, Neeladri Nagar, Doddathoguru, Konappana Agrahara, Begur, Hosa Road, Bommanahalli and HSR Layout. The Phase 2 centre in Ananth Nagar is closer for Ananth Nagar, Hebbagodi, Kammasandra, Bommasandra, Chandapura, Huskur, Attibele, Anekal. Families further away often mix centre visits with online sessions.

Do you offer a consultation for speech therapy in Electronic City?

Yes. Book online, call or WhatsApp +91 88848 64343. The team calls you back within one working day to hear what you have noticed, then books an assessment at whichever centre suits you. The speech-language pathologist observes and plays with your child, and recommends a plan.

What are the fees for speech therapy in Electronic City, Bangalore?

Fees depend on how many sessions a week your child needs and whether some are online. We explain the full cost on the first call, once we understand your child's needs, so nothing is a surprise later. Packages are available for regular weekly therapy.

How long is each speech therapy session?

Sessions are 45 to 60 minutes, with time at the end to show you what was practised and what to do at home. Younger children sometimes start with shorter sessions. Your therapist will say what suits your child after the assessment.

At what age should a child start speech therapy?

We see children from 18 months. If your baby is younger and you are worried, start with your paediatrician and a hearing test. If a child is not using single words by 18 months or joining two words by age 2, an assessment is worth doing now rather than waiting. Earlier support is easier for the child, because the gap is smaller and habits are not yet set.
