Developmental Screening
A structured first session that flags areas of concern across reading, language, attention, sensory and social-emotional development.
Ages:3 – 18Format:1 session, 90 minOutcome:Referral letter
Care Pathways
Four steps, one continuous file
Most centers stop at diagnosis. NEST is built around the idea that screening, evaluation, therapy and lifelong guidance are four parts of one conversation, carried by the same team, in the same record.
STEP 1
Screening
A structured first conversation to surface what's really going on, for the child, the family, and the school.
- 60–90 min intake
- Reading & language markers
- School observation notes
STEP 2
Diagnostic Evaluation
A full multidisciplinary panel, psychology, speech, OT and education, convened around one shared file.
- Cognitive & academic
- Speech & language
- Sensory & motor
- Written report
STEP 3
Therapy & Intervention
Weekly 1:1 work in the modalities that match the plan, at the clinic, at home, online, or alongside the school.
- Speech & language
- Occupational therapy
- Educational therapy
- Counselling
STEP 4
Lifelong Guidance
Reviews every 6 months, transition planning at every life stage, and a clinician who keeps the long view.
- Progress reviews
- School transitions
- Teen & adult support
- Family coaching
Our Services
Every modality, one shared record
Services run as a connected ecosystem, your speech therapist sees the OT's notes, the educator follows the same goals, and the case lead reviews everything every six months.

Therapists visit for early-years work and family coaching when the home is the right setting.

FAQs
Common questions, answered straight
Still wondering about something? Email and a case lead will reply within one working day.
No. Families can book a screening directly, most of ours come without a referral. If you have a school or paediatrician letter, bring it; if not, that's fine.
A diagnostic evaluation runs across three to four sessions over two to three weeks, followed by a written report within 14 days and a family meeting to walk through it.
We work with individuals from age 2 through adulthood. The team and modalities adapt to the life stage, early intervention, school-age therapy, adolescent transitions and adult pathways.
Therapy is scheduled after school where possible. For programs that overlap school hours, we coordinate with the school directly, and our liaison team writes the accommodation letter.
Yes, for ages 8+ and for modalities that translate well to a screen. We also work with families abroad through our online pathway.
Screening and intake are flat-fee. Therapy is billed per session, with subsidised slots reserved through our scholarship fund. Full fee schedule is shared at intake.
