Let's plan together...
Hi!
I'm Cathryn, Speech Pathologist, and founder of Chat Play Fly. I started Chat Play Fly so that every early childhood service like yours, could access the early communication information they needed, when they needed it!

Book a free chat to tell me more about your service and we can explore together what could help you meet your goals.

Written by Speech Pathologists for Educators

All of the resources on this website are written by Speech Pathologists, specifically for use in the early learning environment. All of the strategies and recommendations are play and routine based and child led. They also emphasise the important role of partnering with families. This is in line with EYLF principles, early intervention best practice and current evidence-based strategies for communication development.
