The London Children’s Practice is a needs-led clinic which can

  • Provide a thorough and complete multi-disciplinary assessment of your child’s needs.
  • Design a full and inclusive ‘tailor-made’ programme, including all necessary treatment and therapy, that may include educational tutoring.
  • Provide specific, intensive periods of time to suit the child and the family’s needs.

We constantly ask ourselves, ‘How and what do we need to do to support your child in every way possible to maximise his or her potential?’

We can also provide regular telephone and/or email consultations between appointments and a thorough follow-up programme for families to continue with their child at home.

Many families and their children have had their lives transformed after working with The London Children’s Practice.
