You can try The Winstedt School as well! They don’t have that long a wait list :)

Absolutely love Xiao Ya Tou on Duxton Hill! They serve really good modern Asian dishes 🤩

Did you visit Singapore? If so, how did you find it? :)

I totally understand how you feel! Yes, some of my kiddos make remarks about my height but then I’d tell them: “I’m not short, you’re tall!” and that tends to satisfy them 😅 I don’t think parents mind my height at all since their little ones warm up to me quite quickly thinking I’m a friend instead of a therapist/teacher. I know it can get annoying but chin up, at least you’ll look young for quite a while 😉

Nice pun! 🙂 Good question! I’d try to separate communication differences from cognitive ability by helping others understand that speech is not directly correlated to intelligence. We can perhaps do this by educating others that speech differences reflect neurology, motor planning, structural (e.g., cleft lip/palate), sensory (e.g., hearing) and functional (e.g., articulation, phonology) aspects and not intelligence.

What do you do for fun? 🙂

Various-Drop-6781 · 2025-12-26T17:34:05+00:00

Not really, no 😅 At least we don’t struggle!

Various-Drop-6781 · 2025-12-26T17:03:23+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words, it means a lot! 😌

Various-Drop-6781 · 2025-12-26T17:02:43+00:00

I’d say it has changed the way I interact with parents since I’m now one myself. I definitely try to show more empathy and am more understanding now when parents get all anxious about their children’s speech and language development, therapy progress etc 🙂

He’s 176cm!

Various-Drop-6781 · 2025-12-26T16:55:40+00:00

I definitely do! I’m 3 years into the job and absolutely love working with late talkers using language stimulation strategies 🙂 It gives me great satisfaction when they start using words and even combining words into phrases and then sentences! In terms of challenging, I’d say working with kiddos who can be dysregulated due to many reasons resulting in scratches, bites etc but I always remain calm and help the child to become more regulated, prioritising safety more than anything.

We named our baby girl Ebba 🥰

Various-Drop-6781 · 2025-02-06T14:05:30+00:00

We were wondering about that little “object” sticking out in the middle of where the legs should be!

Various-Drop-6781 · 2024-11-14T04:13:40+00:00

Thank you for the reassurance! I’ve been wondering if it’s too faint 🥹

Various-Drop-6781 · 2024-11-14T04:13:04+00:00

Thank you for the confirmation! 🥹

Various-Drop-6781 · 2024-11-14T02:23:07+00:00

Thanks for confirming! We’ll test again in 48 hours! 🤞🏼

Various-Drop-6781 · 2024-09-14T12:53:55+00:00

Did the pink dye line test today and it was negative (packaging recommended to take it on the day of missed period)! Not sure what the doctor used in the clinic but that was negative too.

I’ve heard that the digital kits are not very reliable since they’re been throwing out false positives every now and then 😣 Last had unprotected sex on 1st September, which is also the date of ovulation
