Jess's Story
A speech pathologist is a specialised health professional who assesses, diagnoses, and treats communication and swallowing disorders. Their work goes far beyond helping with speech sounds; it includes assessing and treating difficulties related to language development, social communication, voice, fluency, and the safe introduction of food and drink.
In early childhood, they play a key role in supporting foundational skills that impact learning, development, and quality of life.
In this episode, host Kath speaks with speech pathologist Jess Andrewartha to get an introduction to the role of a speech pathologist, her education and pathway to this important work and her own experience becoming a mother.
